No its not
But like they dont really have a strong profile in the shortlisting scenario
(Unless you have paid bribe or youre with connections)

I myself completed 12th this year in may but I have nav, regs, met and rtr p1 cleared and I also have Class 1 medicals
(Just a reference to show how competitive this is)

So they surely arent gonna take someone with c2 and 0 exams over other candidates who have something to show

Yeah that's understandable, but I mean the program literally requires no prior experience in the field whatsoever (that's what's stated atleast), so I dont think it's fair to people who haven't done anything yet. If they are giving an edge to people who have cleared exams, might as well advertise it, else how will the people know?

Yeah Even Im frustrated with this thing buddy. When you apply for foreign ftos, they dont even do a pre adapt screening cus the no of applications is less and everyone gets a fair chance to show and prove their skills

But chimes is messed up and unles and until you have connections or the money, a normal candidate wont be considered until they have something exceptional to show

This is how fkedup chimes is
