Apply and you might not get the interview...don't apply and you definitely won't get the interview.

That being said, my buddy recently applied with 500TT 20ME with a Commercial ME, SE, Instrument...was also finishing a degree. He got turned down for an interview. I guess it's a tossup.
Thats what I hear. Some low times get interviews, some don't. I'd rather take my chances than not even try at all.

There are a lot of us from WMU here (including the chief pilot of line flying) That is a favorably looked upon school by the powers that be here. As far as your second question I have no idea what you are talking about but I'm guessing that part of the app is screwed up. I'd just put down what matches the answers available... Good luck.
Were still around and kicking it good here. Lets hope that WMU name does something for the money I paid. lol

Thats what I'm gonna do. The worst that happens is nothing at all. Every seems to tell me that I have an awsome personality, they love to fly with me, and I am good at selling myself at being who I am really am, and not someone who is fake for others. So we will see how it all goes.
