I.e. if you're +100 feet off on your altitude on your steep turns, or go below an altitude, or can't maintain +/-5 degrees during your initial checkride, it's a bust--no do-overs. Personally, on your first checkride, that's probably how it should be.
Pretty sure the FAA has a say on what standards/tolerances an AQP program allows. If they want no do-overs on initial checkrides, Mesa will comply, regardless of whether it's an AQP or traditional training program.

So, just to clarify one could bust a maneuver in initial. But could still be retrained afterwards and allowed another ride? Or would you get fired..
