This is rapidly becomming an issue for me, however, i have contacted NATS regarding my query on minimum qualification requirements prior to application and have not heard anything from them as of yet.
I have already completed an application online for NATS (in answer to the 'faffing around' comment), however, i wanted to try and clarify whether or not it is worth me submitting this application having only studied 4 AS levels and not obtaining the full A level.
A number of people have said 'apply, you have nothing to lose', but the way i see it is if i apply without having the necessary qualifications then that is one of my three opportunities to apply down the drain leaving me only two more attempts. It seems a bit of a waste when if i had found out prior to submitting the application i could have saved myself one of my three 'lives'.
