I know this will be completely unscientific, because the results will be very skewed according to where you work, and who your candidates are.
I am asking because (rightly or wrongly) I often get the impression that many examiners in some ATOs just pass everyone, because its less hassle for them and for the training organisation.
As a rough guess, I think I see about 70% pass, 20% partial and 10% fail. My candidates are from every different background, and every part of the world.
Certainly fixed wing is about the same pass rate.
