Quinn: Not sure where you are taking your training, but for what it's worth, trying to become instrument proficient while working on your private is biting off a lot more than you ought to be doing at this stage. You indicated that you have yet to solo. That alone is probably one of the biggest steps in flying you will ever take. The amount of instrument training that is included in a basic private pilot course is designed to give you the minimum information that you need to handle an unexpected situation,such as entering IMC accidentally, and focusing too much time on the other aspects of instrument flying might serve to de focus you from the many important skills that your instructor SHOULD be emphasizing now.
Reading about these things is of no harm, but the regs very specifically say that you are not able to log instrument training time until you have loged 50 hours of cross country time,post private. Even though you are simply studying IFR proceedures,it would be interpeted in aviation circles as an effort to shortcut the system, and in aviation,you will find a much higher level of self policing among fellow pilots than in any other activity that I know of.
Once you are up there as a VFR pilot,and get into your first "situation",you will see what I mean by focusing your energy now on refining and perfecting your VFR skills instead of trying to jump too far ahead of yourself. For what it's worth,I took about 100 hours to get my private, and about 120 more of dual to get my IFR rating,both done with the same instructor.He was a stickler for doing everything to spec, and would not progress to a new lesson until his students demonstrated precision in performing previously taught skills. In the course of getting my instrument rating,I logged about 60 hours of actual. Many 1,000 hour inst pilots do not have that many hours of actual. Flying is not an activity to take shortcuts to achieve your goals. Leave the GPS and ILS approaches for another day.
