It just depends. I mean if you take it at a CMEL wet you get what you expect. However if you take it at 1000 hours there's a huge difference. Too much to be said about experience more then a jet course. Therefore if one takes it after their CMEL I'd have a hard time believing just because they did not do well in a jet course they are not meant to be an airline pilot. However fact is they perhaps should have polished their skills up instructing etc. I dunno....
My stance is the age old, nothing will prepare you for the airlines like experience will. Getting out and flying and teaching has a lot to be said for it. More so then a jet course IMO.
