Perhaps they leave because they know they are going to fail, but even then the number is high.
How are you privy to such information? It surely is not something your company shares to the public pilot group. If a "training center" guy told you, I would believe it even less.
I have to ask what difference does it make?
For any new potential hires out there, when you go to training at any company/airline give it 110%. Nobody is gonna give you anything. PSA and other regionals need pilots bad, but your not gonna get a type rating and/or ATP certificate just because you showed up.
