With the guaranteed interview, you don't have THAT hurtle to overcome (getting the call).
Once you get in the room, it's all about telling the story. The fact that you were working while in school, providing for your family, makes the GPA and time almost a non-issue. Also, the checkride failure doesn't need to be a 'dinger' either; as long as you OWN it, LEARNED from it, and DIDN'T repeat the same mistake over; shows you're trainable.

I agree with AerCrewSolut.

There really isn’t a “typical” path anymore. Second careers, non-degree flight programs, guard/reserve, and various work/intern right seat gigs. If you’re motivated and have the times some airline will give you a shot in the next few years. They need pilots.
