6th Form Scholarship (RAF) is it worth it??
I'm 15 years old and have a keen interest on joing the RAF.
I'm currently in my local Air Training Corps squadron and was told by the career officer that if i was to consider joining the RAF, 6th form scholarship was a good way to go about it.
I'm predicted 9 GCSE's at grade A* to B, english lit. and lang. at B, Maths A, Science(double award) A*, geog A*, History B, Spanish A* and Media studies B (other 2 are D's but unimportant subjects)
I have been told to call into the AFCO at Newcastle, after i recieve my Mock GCSE results and i will be considered for Scholarship.
Can anyone advise me on my way to go about it, i.e courses i should do well on, Fitness levels, and will being in the ATC give me an advantage?
Any Info about what they look for at Officer Selection at Cranwell would be greatly appreciated also!
