Initial Type Rating preparation

I will be beginning my initial type rating on the a320 very soon, one month to be precise, as i was told by my airline at the very last minute. I wish to seek advice regarding the best method to prepare for type rating.

I intend to (by order of priority) study the:

-Company's FCOM normal & abnormal procedures' section; flows, callouts, profiles, PM/PF roles.
-Read the FCTM (golden rules, protection philosophy)
-QRH memory items / emergency procedures
-Study aircraft systems from an online CBT subscription / FCOM systems section
-Memorize limitation values i.e. pitch/power values, speeds, flap/Ldg gear speeds, wind limits etc.

Please let me know your thoughts and if one month is sufficient time to prepare.

Cheers,
