Question Alevels

Hi,
Now you might ask why didn't searched on this forum about this .Well to be honest I haven't found what I’m looking for.

I finished 6th form this year and I got these results A-level maths D and physics D i have 5 gsces C and higher. I ‘am a holder of the JAA ppl .Should I continue and start off with the ATPL ??? I know for a fact that most airlines require gsc's so I think I should be safe

The only reference I've seen to A-Level requirements so far is that of the BA FPP. In terms of flying schools for the ATPL they only require 5 GCSE's of C or above including a science so you should be safe!

Just remember though, it's a very demanding course and requires a lot of work being put in to it (Not saying you didn't put the work in for your A-Levels)

C172M, I wouldn't bother about your A-levels. With the standard of your written English you will never get as far as an airline interview. They will take one look at your application and bin it!
