The girl had shown boatloads of motivation to finance and finish the program that she was enrolled in. If I was the person responsible for hiring, I would be a lot more interested in motivation than rote memorization.

I disagree, a motivated professional pilot would have studied and poses a great amount of information - not being able to pass an simple test, based on the FAA PPL Written simply proves she does not have a good understanding even at the PPL level, and is unlikely to be a safe pilot. It seems to me she learnt how to pass tests, not fly!
