What to do?

I'm 15 and currently in year 11 and still have to do some of my GCSE exams. I've known from a long time that I want to be a pilot. My neighbour is a professional pilot and said I should start planning sooner rather than later, which is why I'm wondering what to do after my GCSE's. I was hoping someone could give me some advice, perhaps guide towards the right path

Obviously do A-Levels, Maths, Physics and something else. Go to Uni, Join the University Air squadron, Join the RAF. Get it all paid for and more fun. Thinking about going straight into commercial aviation after GCSEs is a really stupid idea if that is what you are considering.

Thumbs up

Thanks for the advice!
I wasn't considering going straight into commercial flying after GCSE's as I am aware that circumstances may change. This is why I'm considering doing a degree with flight training integrated.
