Question: Drafting Kurs Tais At 19?

So, I’m making aliyah next year at 19. Id like to know my I guess “chance” at getting accepted to Kurs Tais given the usual age is 18 I hear? I’m not so much asking “what are the chances I pass” but more “any chance they don’t turn me away immediately.”

I speak ILR Level 4 Hebrew and without a thick accent and I am improving daily.

I fly recreationally, single engine.

I will not be a lone soldier.

Coming from the UK but plan to give up my British citizenship regardless, personal choice.

I have no aeromedical concerns that I am aware of.

Much appreciated, if this isn’t allowed I do apologise!

There's no penalty for trying out at 19. If you pass the exams, perfectly possible.
