What else have you done though? Do you have a career in aviation? Have you done anything interesting with your ppl like a landaway anywhere? There’s honestly so much more to motivation than just saying you want to be a pilot and have a PPL. I had about five paragraphs of stuff to write and had to chop it down to fit. I disagree on the A level front I’m afraid. You can be aircrew in the military with no A levels
