I'm not sure, I've met some bloody good pilots whose academic ability wasn't their strong point, guys who find it really hard to study and get good marks. On the other hand there're guys who will breeze any exam, wax lyrical on the most obscure points of PofF and still be a living danger to man and beast before even approaching a helicopter.
It's like looking at someone's IQ, it's a very limited way of looking at a specific type of human intelligence, and in the process the geniuses may well slip you by.
