I personally went to college with someone who could not program at all when he graduated. He made a lot of friends and had a lot of help the entire way through.

It's been 7 years and he has never worked as a developer.

If you mean can't program fizzbuzz or simliar, how did he make it through tests? Did he cheat? In most classes I had, tests were around 60% of your grade.
