Uni or flying training? (2012)

[teabagYoYo92887]

Hi
My name is Tony , currently studying last year in college, i am seriously thinking of going into the avaition industry. I been thinking hard for the past two years. However since i been on the forum i seen some fantastic story and some negative stories on how hard it could be to find the 1st job. i know its hard & my parents are thinking is it worth the risk of spending so much money in a such a unstable industry.
I sees so many well qualifield pilot struggled to get an interview nevermind a job. doesn't gives me & especially my parents confident.

Fews day ago i thought of another problem should i go to university to completed the degree i've been seeking for or ust go straight to training.

Just wanted to know aswell when you do get your big break would you be able to hold down a full time airline job & studying for a BA degree?
the thing is im worried about if (a big IF) you fail medical test, then your expensive license is worthless then

i have a rough idea on which type of course i should be going into?

Any help or comment would be Appreciated

Thanks!
