I'm not great with forms, and the Schengen one was worse than any I've seen. I liked that it told me which fields are common rejection triggers so I double-checked those. The whole form took me about 40 minutes end to end. Honestly felt like having a patient friend walk you through the process. I actually felt confident walking into the consulate โ that's a first. Everything is laid out so even my mum could follow it, and she's 68. If the consulate had a recommendation list, this would be on it.
