I've heard from the guys recently who have completed training at Higher Power for example say that it was some of the toughest training (and consider here the background these guys come from) they have been through, but all have completed the training. I would venture to guess that your training in the Herc has been top notch, and that if you can pass that training track, then you have the skills to pass any other training program. I'm sure it is more about determination and work ethic than about the number of hours that you have either going through initial military training or having instructed for 500+ dual given.
I have no experience in the civilian CFI/II/MEI world though so my views are solely from having observed the military side and what has happened to my peers getting into professional aviation.
