The purpose of the JKT is to test weather a pilot can look at the topics supplied to the applicant before the interview, study those topics, and be tested on them in a relatively short period of time.
So, it does assume that you are going to study...but it also assumes that you're not going to know it all, thus the relatively low "passing" score (not really public knowledge, but there are lots of numbers in the 50%-70% range thrown around).
Honestly, I don't know why anyone would have the opportunity of a Delta interview, and then only half-assed the preparation for it. Even if they all ready worked for another legacy (or SWA), if there was the opportunity to have another job offer, it would be worth it to put some effort into getting the CJO.
Having choices like that to make is a great professional place to be.
