Your welcome :P..... Yea it's the worst part the uncertainty of it all, I think people should get in the merit of patience alone cause after this we will all have nerves of steel! I've been reading them and it is terrible to think that they got this far and to be told they failed because of an unverified result Thats true but if they were not totally dedicated to follow through then they never should have applied and cut the chances of you and I and so on.. I wont open that rant because it's been done to death haha.

Hopefully:P we'll have to survive templemore first though.. but for now we just need to concentrate on actually getting there All I know is after my three years probation I'm applying to every traffic position going :P

Sounds good im interested in traffic corps myself...well ill do pretty much anything if I get in ha!! Again, good luck

Hopefully we hear something soon, but I'm done getting my hopes up I just roll with it now and it's taken a step back in my life. I'm focused on the here and now. No point checking emails everyday waiting on them. We will be called in due course.

Has anyone been in contact with PAS to see what rough stage they are currently at in regards to numbers? I placed 2492. Just out of curiosity

Congratulations to you guys. Great news about being called.
Log on to the shl site as much as you can again and practice.
It will be worth it.
Well done on waiting. It's paying off. You could be in Templemore soon.

Got first week in March... How long after stage 3 is the Medical Examination, Physical Competence Test? I'm 6'4 and touching 17 st. so I guess I better start shedding all that weight now for the BMI, just in case I make it through this one.

and btw SHL the sh!t out of it.

At that height/weight you have a bmi of approx 29, which is ok.
It might be two to three months before medical & physical, depending in how many brought forward.
Look at the pct fitness video on YouTube and start practicing.
The amount of people so far that needed repeats was shocking.
Best of luck to all of you.

Hi All,

Just in relation to the SHL website. Its only the same test that is coming up for the inductive reasoning. I am looking for more than 1 test (18 Questions) to practice. Am I dong something wrong? Any help would be greatly appreciated

Are my calculations correct when I say there is still approx 2,000 candidates that are yet to be called to stage 3?

I believe there is just over 1100 left to be called, the last call up was to 1982 on the order of merit, 3100 were in the stage

Positive

Is there many waiting on the call to start training ?

Nobody here has a clue, you need to ring PAS or GHRM to find that out
