IwannaBflying,
Finding it ok so far thanks, its been so long since I studied Physics at school, well it seems like it anyway! How have you found the A-Level course? Bet your relieved to be coming to the end! How did the pilapt aptitude test go btw?
You made a good point about the PPL and what employers would look for. I have decided to do an English Language A-Level now so that I have the two, probably the safest bet!? I'm still going to go ahead with the PPL, mainly so I can be in the sky as soon as poss but also because I have found particular scholarships that it could be useful for. Here's one worth looking at called the J.M Summers ATPL scholarship

I'm sure you must of heard of the CTC Wings scholarship from other forums. If not here it is anyway

Thanks for your advice, good luck with Cabair!!
