Devil Poor School Grades

Hi,

Just wondering if you could help

i am a student PPL (22yrs) and wondering whether it is necessary to go back to school to do my GCSE's again as i got grade D's in every one of them. Its not that i am not capable, its because i got into a bad crowd during my final year at school and ended up messing up my chances of doing my "a" levels (im sure some have you have done this...wem not all perfect) and chances of getting into the air. after a few years life experience, i have now decided to go the whole way stage by stage. i have sold my house and retained enough money to do my PPL/IMC/Night/CPL IR ect ect but i am wondering if even after all this i woudlnt get a job because of my bad school grades?

Should i quit flying for now and go to college (bearing in mind i work full time) or should i keep flying and see what happens.


Please help!

regards
