I was told that BA have just put an advert in to Flight saying that they are recruiting 250 pilots this year, so you should be OK, if you leave it. Someone also said that they normally renew and extend the closing date on the first day, after, so 1 May 2008 for the end of May 08, and so on, so we will see tomorrow.
The other thing to consider is that you can apply at your 2 year point even without a licence, this means that if you mess the interview up, you would get another chance with a year to go, since you can reapply after 12 months, whereas if you left it, until your last year you only get one shot.
The last point is, if you pass the interview day, pay money to do an exact sim pre-ride a few days before your BA sim, since the sim is quite hard and after all you only get one shot, why not pay to make sure you pass it.
You then get a job with a BIG career airline!
Cheers
