I'd avoid CTC for the time being. They have 1 CP starting every month with 24 pilots on each CP more or less. Their facilities are working to capacity and the holding pool is heading towards Olympic proportions.
I'm not going to slate their quality of training because on all accounts its quite good, but for the time being its a massive sausage factory, the horsemeat scandal has taken hold and no ones buying the sausages. Thats a really bad analogy but you get my drift.
I would also avoid learning to fly in America but thats another argument all together. Go to university and think of a subject you're interested in totally unrelated to aviation. Something like a degree in Business and Management would be handy.
