Can anyone offer me some advice at this stage?

Basically I think i'm at something of a catch 22 situation.

Firstly, I can't afford to go straight for an integrated course (which is why I was trying for this FPP). Secondly I was prior to this assessment trying to gain entry into the aviation world via the modular route, and am at a position now to gain my ground ATPL exams and go for a CPL.

Unfortunately gaining a CPL would then render me unable to apply to future FPP programs. Do I hold off on the flying and try to do the FPP again if and when it reappears, and gain entry directly into the top of the foodchain as far as piloting is concerned, or do I avoid wasting time and possible future failure by taking things into my own hands, and taking considerably longer to work my way into an airliner?
