3/4 made it in my class. The one that didn't make it was a great guy and had almost 10,000 hrs but had not flown in years. He got behind and just couldn't catch up. They gave him every opportunity and worked one on one with him but in the end he resigned. Once again the training at PSA was harder than the training that I received at Colgan. But I was more prepared for the line at PSA than 9L. If you study, are willing to stay after your CBT's and go to the paper tigers and do flows and get ready for the next day you wont have a problem. They are not out to fail you, but they are not there to hold your hand. You have 24/7 access to the training center and there are some days you may be there from 8 AM to 8PM going over things and doing things to be ready for the next day.
