No it isn't.

Either way, your grades will not matter unless you were to try for an airline mentorship. Once qualified an airline will not care about your academics. Most importantly right now you should be considering what chance of a job you would have once qualified. For everyone who isn't on a mentored scheme it is the same negative picture regardless of school grades, unless you have some very useful contacts.

As far as aptitude is concerned, maybe it would be worth getting tested by an independent, impartial party such as GAPAN.
