Meaning?

Hi

would you please tell me what is the meaning of I'm not sure he's cut out for jury trials in the following text:

He ( thr student ) cursed , flung a notebook, snatched his backpack and stomped out of the classroom, the door almost shattering behind him.

with perfect timing my father( the law professor ) said I'm not sure he's cut out for jury trials.

Thanks
