Hi.

You did not mention what you were studying.

If you were studying engineering courses, that will be great for your attempt to become a pilot, coz pilot have to know not only how to fly a airplane, but also how does the aircraft fly.

That is most important thing which will probably save you and your partner under most urgent situations.

Nevertheless, you should get some good courses when being trained. What I am saying is it will do a lot help if you have a engineering background.

Good luck~!
