This is horrible advice, and simply doesn’t make sense. How is someone supposed to study limitations, Alaska memory items, and flows before they start training? You don’t get any materials before training, in fact you won’t even get airplane specific training materials until Indoc is nearly finished.
Training is very good, and really depends on the individuals attitude. A positive attitude, and showing up having studied and prepared for the lesson goes a long way and will insure success.
Again no need to pre-study, and really not even possible. Just show up well rested and ready to learn day one.
