Ah, forgot about other countries getting results early! I wish I was Scottish
I think I probably will end up going to uni and dropping out if I do get a place on the scheme. Like Phlying_Physicist said, statistically it would be difficult to get on but nevertheless, I'll be going for it if it's announced next year and will just drop out.
The reason I don't really want to do both a degree and the FPP scheme is because I don't want the debt. Although BA give £84k of the loan, it doesn't cover the full £100k which I would probably need plus interest and then a £50k student loan on top (I've applied for a 4 yr degree) would be a lot to handle.
It's just a bit annoying I can't apply this year but I'll just have to get over it and hope I can get on the scheme next year!
