Paying for selection
I've just done the Brit tests and was glad I wan't charged, and I have not applied for flybe. However, I have to be honest and say that the cost of the tests would have made no difference; I would have still applied to Brit and I would not have applied to flybe if it were free.
I suppose there is another way of looking at it; either flybe will recoup the costs of the tests from each applicant or the costs of the unsucessful from the sucessful. The course costs £33,000 as it is. If those who get through have to pay for those who don't, it will cost another £2,000 or so.
Which is worse?
