When I was in school, many teachers really pushed the 'tell them what you are going to tell them, tell them, then tell them what you told them' when writing. It's actually the easiest form of teaching and works well for all forms of reports and business documents. So, I would not be surprised by their results. However, as a person who enjoys novels, I actually get annoyed when they reveal too much in the blurb. It spoils the story. Unless, of course, it is actually the author's intent and they reveal the end in the first chapter and then weave a story about how that end comes about.
