CTC or OAA?

Hello

A bit of background first - I'm seventeen, currently at college doing A level Maths, Physics and Electronics. I'm currently working towards my NPPL, but unfortunately, due to college, it's going rather slower than I would like. Either way, flying is definitely what I want to do

I've looked around both CTC and Oxford's facilities, and was more impressed with CTC's as it stands, but due to CAE and Oxford merging they're upgrading their equipment and aircraft, so I suppose both companies will be on par with each other.

I'm still not entirely sure how the holding pool/post training employment works with each company. They seem to have quite different approaches to it and I'm trying to get my head around it, particularly Oxford's method.

After all that, I would be interested to hear of any opinions about either of these training schools, whether you've been through them, flown with anyone who's been through them or had any other experience with them.

Thanks in advance
