Yes, I'd agree...
You really must present yourself as best you can when it comes to sponsorships. There are guys out there with the grades so you must have them too..although there is flexibility in what you study. Maths and Physics would be the way to go I guess..but why not tag on something you enjoy like French or history? Languages are also good for airlines!
Good luck, e-mail me for more sponsorship info!!
