I'm no Chuck Yeager, and perhaps I'm in the minority, but I don't think any extra sims would have helped me at all. My check ride was the best in my career, and I definitely saw more than 3 V1 cuts before the type. Unless they changed the sim lessons, day 3 was single engine stuff (lots of V1 cuts), and day 4 is a mock ride (more practice with cuts). I guess I peaked at the right time.....

Do not bother with detail until you have the flows, memory items and limitations memorized.

Memory items and limitations.
There will be a lot of people sharing dropbox which have the old limitations which are good to know but during your check ride, you'll be required to know the bold items in COM 1 which were just recently changed with the upcoming arrival of the new NEOs.
If you go in on day one having these down, you will be ahead of the game.
Welcome aboard.

Brainscape is a great flashcard app. Search for "Spirit Airlines Fall 2015" and "Spirit Oral Study Guide." Those should give you good info, including all bolded (required) limitations and memory items.

Disclaimer: I do not recommend this, but just to illustrate a point...
You could show up day one of training not having looked at any systems and still be ok.
Show up to day one of training not knowing any flows, and you might be re-polishing your resume within a week.
Learn the flows.
