In a nutshell - you're chances are only slightly better than the square root of diddly-squat at the moment.

As you're young, you could try joining the armed services but there is not much recruiting in the civilian sector without at least 500-1000 hours.

If you don't want to join the military, then I would advise going to uni to get something to fall back if you can't get work in aviation - it's a tough old world out there.

All the best.
