I think we all (hopefully) know there's no substitute for studying the company provided material. But if I knew absolutely nothing about the aircraft systems and wanted to get a good idea of how the general systems work and the levels of automation, it sure beats trying to cram it all in at the last minute. I know of folks at other places who didn't get their CBT's assigned until a couple of days before they were supposed to show up at sim.
