As I remember he washed back to my upper class, and thats where he failed the advocacy brief. If I remember correctly, once you got washed back, one failure could be grounds for your dismissal, so when he failed, that triggered the evaluation that led to the decision to remove him from training. He hung around in limbo for a while after the decision was made (a couple weeks) and was finally put into my class. His story was that he fought the dismissal on the grounds that the grading for the advocacy briefing was subjective and after he gave the same brief to another evaluator, they decided to pass him.
