Sponsorship from BA

Hi- quite a common question, but here we go.
I have been very interested in flying all my life, and several years ago decided I wanted to be a pilot. I want to get sponsored after university, and am wondering what BA are looking for?

I am currently studying for my GCSEs (am doing 11), and am preicted mainly As and A*s, including A for maths and A* for physics, which are my favourtie subjects. After this I have applied to go to 6th form to study all 3 sciences and maths, and have been accepted. After this I hope to get an aeronautical engineering degree. I have my Silver and Bronze Duke of Edimburgh awards, am currently working on my Gold and also enjoy scuba diving. I have perfect colour vision, and require -3.25 dioptre correction in each eye, so I should be Ok for a class 1, as I have no other medical problems.

Provided I achieve the results I am predicted/hope for, do I stand a good chance for sponsorship from BA?
