BB,
Yes I would agree that generally speaking sponsored cadets perform better than self-sponsored. The cadets I refer to from EPST were all white, male and Dutch so no political correctness there. They were all selected after undergoing aptitude tests and interviews. Other than basic aptitude, I think there is quite a divergence between the various sponsorship schemes. Perhaps they are looking for slightly different pilots.
Your points on the BA cadet scheme are valid.
