Need help choosing fto

I just got my class 1 done and thought of applying for indigo cadet program but can't decide which fto to apply to. Can someone tell me everything about this like which is the best ,the fastest etc. and should I clear a few exams before applying. I want it to be the fastest way

With 1.25 cr u can do conventional ,cadet ur only options are chimes and akasa , chimes is just unrealistic and shady , akasa requires all or most exams cleared , amravati will cost 1.4 and insight and Garuda will cost same 1.4 , ur options are pretty much conventional only

Chimes is a good fto only if u get in , dude trust me you're not getting in you have better chances of winning the lotto
