Default sklansky\'s system

In his (in my opinion) very good book Tournament Poker Sklansky mentions a tournament system that he taught to a young woman who knew literally nothing about poker and then he goes on to revise his system for the more knowledgable player. Has anyone looked at this and tweaked it even more so it could be used successfully? Is it a hopeless idea to try to find a system that could work in a 500 person MTT better than playing a normal TAG game using basic tourney strategy...
thoughts welcome
-Mario

I taught my mom to follow the system. She utilizes it in $1 MTT tournies on Paradise poker that frequently get fields of 1000+.

She cashes quite often. No final tables yet. Maybe a 20 tournament sample size.

I don't know. She isn't playing them to determine a winrate. I think she's cashed in maybe 5 of them.
