Well, TIE Fighters will give you a good sense of whether you enjoy high-agility, fragile ships that like to arc-dodge and outmaneuver a foe. X-Wings are more firepower-oriented. Trying those two out will give you some idea of direction. A Y-Wing or YT-1300 or -2400 will give you a sense of how you like turrets. Some of the really quirky stuff like Quadjumpers you just have to try out yourself.

While playing at the game store, it can help to ask other players questions, and even ask if you can try out one of their ships to see if you like how it plays. In my experience people in this community are usually pretty cool about that. This can help a lot in deciding which ship you want to buy next.
