Is being a helicopter pilot in the army as hard as becoming a fighter pilot in the other branches?

I just graduated college and looking at the army warrant officer pilot program. Is it hard? And what are the chances of becoming a helicopter pilot for the army? I know only 3% of fighter pilot applicants actually become one (maybe even less). Is the criteria just as rigorous?

    Becoming a helicopter pilot in the army is probably less difficult because for one you don't need a college degree. Plus, the training to become a pilot in the AF and Navy is some of the most competitive training the military has to offer.

    Well, I guess the G-forces in a helicopter are less extreme than in jet-fighters
