Don't forget that the initial requirements for hearing is going to be relaxad in November. The initial is going to be the same as the renewal requirement (35db)

Quote from CAA website:
Hearing
(Proposal by the UK)
Audiogram standards for the initial class 1 and initial instrument rating for class 2
There will be no difference between initial and revalidation/renewal class 1 audiogram requirements i.e. the requirement is now that there shall be no hearing loss in either ear tested separately of >35db in the 500-2000Hz range, and 50db at 3000Hz. This will also be the requirement for the issue of an instrument rating to a class 2 holder
Damn, I had 35dB at 4KHz and missed my chance :{
