I had all of the above in fact the check airman box was the tipping point since I was called a month after I checked that box. I don't look down on anyone without a bachelors degree but I'm proud of my accomplishments and getting a bachelors degree was part of the journey. Barriers to entry are a good thing as long as they are achievable. I would much prefer airlines sweeten the airline pilot pot that start dropping the requirements.
