If you are talking about the number of hours required to train for the
maneuvers for the checkride, 10 or less should be sufficient if you're
familiar with the airplane you will use. Since a complex aircraft is
required for at least part of the checkride, some folks will require more
hours to be comfortable with the new plane.


That's exactly what I was asking. I didn't intend to be so vague in my
question.


I asked my CFII this a little while ago, and thought I could do it in 10-15
hours. The caveat is that I'm not yet flying complex (although my club has
one), but I have spent a couple of hours playing with the maneuvers (the
"fun" part of the rating, in my opinion {8^).
