As someone who is about to go through my first airline ground school/systems training this will probably be how I mostly go about it leading up to class. This method helped a lot when I was working on CFI back in the day. Also group study can be hit or miss with me. Sometimes having one know-it-all in the group answering all the questions doesn't help anyone.
