Talked to an FO that moved on.
He was one of the 3 of 11 in his class that made it through training.( about 2 years ago.)
Wow! 8 people hired and fired, 80+ sim sessions gone to waste. Does that great training keep crews from trying to take off with no flaps? No.

If you're reasonably sharp and put in the work, get info from previous classes, and work hard as a group, you'll be OK. Most failures I know of came from either ESL students or those with previous failures at other airlines.
