I have thought about applying to university, as that seems to improve your chances of getting selected within the scheme, but if I do a degree, I am still in debt and studying for 32 to 4 extra years in something I do not want to, all for the chance of fully-funded.

I have also already taken a trial flight with the Air Cadets, I loved every bit of it.

Is there anything I can do to stand-out compared to everyone else, since I would be fresh out of school with just GCSES and A-Levels. I am already trying to get aviation related work experiences (they are far and few between and plan to work part time this summer, as a lifeguard if vacancies permit)
