Abra, I don't know your position in life and aviation (your profile is remarkably uninformative), but you really are quite wrong.
I am continually amazed at the number of Wannabes contributors who claim to 'know what airlines want' from their applicants. The amount of crap spouted about exam passes, the 'right' schools, etc. would be amusing if it wasn't so bloody misleading. Please listen to those of us that have been there and got the T shirt, and not to those who are pushing theories gleaned from flight school crewroom and bar discussions.
You should even take anything your school says about airline requirements with a huge dose of salt. For a start, the school will tend to put a gloss on its own contribution to the process, but further than that: how many of those instructing you (ground or flight) have actually been airline pilots? They may be excellent instructors, but unless they've been on the business end of an airline (or military) selection process, their pronouncements about airline (or military) recruiting can be no better than received opinion.
So, let's get this straight: exam passes are rarely, if ever, taken into account by airline recruiters (though they may have some influence on some of the TRTOs' selection processes). Which school you went to is not important. All we generally care about is that you have the licence, the medical, the hours we ask for, the ability to pass the sim check, and we think we can live with you in the other seat of our office for up to 14 hours at a stretch. That, basically, is it.
