Gunit, some good advice here and I can only support what has been said.
I found my type rating course very tough, purely because of the intensity over a short period of time, and most likely alot of my brain cells have died over the years so I guess that didnt help

One piece of advice I would give you is when you start the course, set yourself targets and stick to them. You will be given training material that you need to go through and learn. As badboy said, it will most likely be in the CBT format, along with FCOM's. When I did the Airbus course we had a scehdule to work to, which if you stuck to it, would allow you one day of revision before the exam at the end. Perhaps it was just me but I could never have digested the volume of information required to get through it if I had done that. Therefore I worked everyday 12 - 14 hours a day and got at least 5 days ahead of the game. This gave plenty of time for revision and to tie up any loose ends, before the exam.
Unlike badboy, I didnt feel I had much time to chill out. Again the simulator sessions were intense, with only really enough time to do complete each task once. The simulator hours can also be unsocialble, therefore your sleep patterns may get out of check and you will find yourself tired. There is a lot of work to do working through the FCOM's, learning SOP's and profiles.
I agree with Badboy regarding manuals and getting hold of the CBT if you can. Any head start is a bonus and will make it easier for you.
Enjoy your course, it is nice when you pop out the other side, get the rating in your licence and start flying the real aircraft, which makes it all worth.
All the best.
