SID PLATE
That doesn't work for the current state of ATPL exams. One has to hit the question banks.
I enjoyed studying almost all of the ATPL subjects, but believe me, preparing for the actual EASA exams was the most miserable period of my flight training. There is no other way to pass them than practicing on the question bank and memorise the most stupid questions written by people that I doubt have ever boarded an aircraft, let alone fly or work on one. I was able to get rid of the exams in 3 months. But I did not learn anything from preparing for the exams. They add nothing relevant to someone's education.
Probably EASA could learn a thing or two from the FAA system.
Now I have a full time flying job, and I do review my ATPL notes from time to time just because I like the content.
