Melchett you have it. I once did the Biggin Hill bit without giving it proper thought; good candidate they said but try again next time, but I didn't. When thinking about reapplying I realized I did not have, and never really did have, the necessary burning desire, which cannot be faked, and as you say, it will show. Life went on to a full and satisfying career with no regrets.
EngO2017, good luck, you are making the right moves.
MOI/, think long and hard. then go for it.
