That's not realistic and everyone knows it. Aren't the "recommnded texts" basically every major 5 pound book in aviation? That's not a "study guide".
And how many pilots have "learned and grown" to the point they can reliably cypher distance from a station from radial passage alone, coupled with how many degrees to crab at cruise as well as through the descent with changing winds? Please.
I bet if you went to any major top tier medical institution, very few (if any) accomplished neurologists/transplant specialists/etc could ace the first year med school anatomy exam naming every tendon in the foot etc.
