My latest exam results came back at B/B/C, the minimum requirement for the FPP program and such. I've never been really fantastic academically, but I can hold my own - so to subsitute straight A's, I've been trying to polish off my CV a bit more by doing more flying lessons and work experience.
Am I wasting my time though? When I think about it, I begin to realise that no matter what extra-curricular activities I do, there'll be a candidate who has done just as much and who DOES have the straight A's to go with it.
Also, I can't afford to get my PPL, which I'm sure many other candidates would probably have, and the nearest ATC is about a 50 minute drive away - am I flogging a dead horse in trying to take the intergrated route?
It may be the case that modular is more appropriate for me, then again, that's not exactly cheap either.
