Select your mech, then click launch.
You can click the square icon next to the launch button to change the game type.

You need to start the Patcher. There should be an icon for MWO on your desktop (I hope you are using Windows), click it and you should start the Patcher. It will either have Patch or Launch in a big blue button on the lower right hand corner of the Patcher.
If it says Patch, click it and then wait for the stuff to load.
If it says Launch, click it, log in, on the top of the screen of the Lobby there should be Profile/ Mech Lab/ Pilot Tree/ Faction/ Store. You need to click on Mech Lab.
Once in the Mech Lab you might want to do the movement tutorial first. I think (I couldn't get into the Mech Lab before so all I know is from watching YouTube videos, and all the ones I've seen was way before the tutorial was available.) you can do this by clicking the small button with the little mech picture that is by the big Launch button that is on the upper right hand corner of the screen. Clicking that button will give you a drop down menu, choose the tutorial.
I'm hoping that you will return to the Mech Lab after the tutorial (remember I can't actually do this yet), on the left hand side of the screen there should be a couple of long buttons that has 'Trial Mechs' on one, and 'Owned Mechs' on the other. If you are brand new and hadn't donated to get Sarah's Jenner, you most likely do not have any owned mechs. So click on the 'Trial Mechs' button. On the bottom of your screen should be the pictures of four mechs. Choose one, then either go to the Training Grounds from that same button where you got the tutorial (recommended) or you can hit the Launch button and jump into a match.
I would recommend the Training Grounds first, because you can practice piloting your mech in a non-hostile environment, you can practice shooting the dummies, AND you can explore and familiarize yourself with the various maps.
Good Luck.
