Hey man, I think it all really depends on what's going on at the time to be honest... I got my route confirmation in September, and got my start date confirmed in November, simply because it was approaching the end of the year, and not many courses were going to be starting before Christmas... i'd say if you have the money though, it's good to get the medical, as it tells you whether you're fit to fly or not, but £500 for a lot of people is a lot to spend without the security of an offer / route they are happy with
