That's a very logical and important question. One must ensure the following points before choosing any flying school.
1. The DGCA approvals of the flying school, their validity and no incident/accident record.

Usually, Single Engine Aircrafts are used to train CPL trainees because its per hour operational cost is less than that of any multi-engine plane and DGCA has defined any candidate who is pursuing CPL should do 200 hours of flying irrespective of the engine composition of aircrafts.

You need to understand that pilot training is governed and regulated by DGCA and it is irrespective of the flying school you choose to train with. For becoming a commercial pilot, there is a specific eligibility criteria, which you should first be aware of. This is decided on what subjects have you taken in class 12th. It requires 50% in PCM to be a pilot at 10+2 level. And, even if you have not opted for the same, then you can appear separately for these subjects and become eligible. Further, you should be aware that you are medically fit to be a pilot, so I would suggest you to visit:

Yes, you can do it even after you do your engineering. The minimum requirement is 10+2 with PCM and that is compulsory. So you should have PCM with 50% marks at 10+2 level. Your engineering degree shall be additional qualification although it will not be given any consideration for doing CPL. You need to understand that Pilot training is governed and regulated by DGCA and it is irrespective of the flying school you choose to train with. Even if you have not opted for the same, then you can appear separately for these subjects and become eligible.
