FT Training - Poorly in training?

Word has it that Citi laid off a bunch of people last summer for doing poorly in training...can you seriously get fired for doing poorly in training?

Also, is anyone going to look at the online diagnostic test results?

Times are unprecedented, i would say make sure you not even close to the bottom 10% of your training class. Remember tons of kids would kill for the job, so don't be an idiot and lose it because you didn't care about training. It could definitely happen, especially if companies have overhired and are looking for ways to cut headcount.
