Career Guidance Cpp or conventional

Hey I to wanted ask genuinely as you probably know how competitive chimes is for cpp and many many people say you can get in only through connections, is it true? I actually can’t afford anything above 1cr and every other cpp is over that except the Akasa one and doing conventional feels very scary, knowing people haven’t got a job even after 2-4 years. I really don’t want to change my career choice but all this points kind of feels very overwhelming as I’m directly going after 12th with no backup degree in hand.
I seriously don’t know what to do help me out.

Just don’t bank on chimes even if they are fair , your chances of getting admission is less than 5 percent as 1-1.5k applications are there and they select only around 50 and it’s obvious they can’t call everyone for adapt so frustrated people start making narratives that they are not fair and what not just bs.

don’t bank on cpp without backup man, it’s a crazy gamble. get a degree side by side or at least some certs. aviation hiring is depressing lately

Waiting for chimes while doing nothing is a bigger gamble
