    My merit score is around 120 N/RC so fingers crossed for you.

    They wanted me to start on 1 Feb but I need to give notice to my old job, not that I will be doing any work from now on!!

    Cheers bud. If I don't get a call for the March intake, at least I know I'm not far off it. I still have it in my mind that I'm more likely to get called for April or May.

    I'm sure it crossed your mind just to take the February start and forget about giving notice. :D

    So if I am just over 100 Non RC should I be expecting a call? I have completely lost track of who has what merit and background...

    So I am worried now...

    My merit is just over 100 Non RC and i've still not had a call... :mad: why would Non RC's with bigger numbers than me get calls before me?

    Arrrgggghhh this process is awful!:p

    I would have thought you would have heard already. Cooper1980 and PC Inwaiting are both non-RC around 120. I'm fairly confident that you'll hear soon enough.

    well done cooper-PC in waiting, Carlty I can feel your good news coming soon!!!! Congrats to all! Really pleased for ya's!:D

    DownMTber... There's no way of knowing what order they are calling people in. They could have pooled the candidates for March into one list and are working down it alphabetically. Don't be worrying just yet!


    ... unless your surname is Aadvark or something.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 323 ✭✭squirrel81


    CONGRATS to everyone who got the call, you lucky sods. Not jealous, really. :(:D

    Well done to everybody who got the call. Jealous really you know!

    Looks like there's gonna be alot less people on here speculating, wondering, hoping ...

    Hope a few more get calls - remember some of us still in vetting!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 433 ✭✭MORRI


    well done all you lucky sods!!
    DownMTBer has your vetting cleared?
    I think they really need an RC in the 400's to balance the March intake up a bit;)

    Hi all.

    Long time lurker, first time poster. Just got the call today so thought it would be a good time to come on and say hi! Looking forward to meeting everyone at the SRD.

    Merit was about 150's Non Rc if this is of any help to anyone. From my creeping in the shadows I know that it can help. I'm sure those around that region should be near the end of their wait so heres hoping.

    Ps- I don't really eat Big Macs all the time, I just couldn't think of a clever username! :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 323 ✭✭squirrel81


    thanks integra pet, aw would love to see you in this intake! See bl**dy vettin, its a nightmare!! Your call will come soon, guaranteed :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 263 ✭✭PC Inwaiting


    Don't know what to do with myself now, I can't believe my waiting is finally over.

    Thanks to everyone for listening to my moaning.

    Fingers crossed for everyone still waiting.

    Am I right in saying we will be the 'blues'.
