    I agree. So far as I believe I was very last medical, at least in am. SMT and medical results are separate however. Medical results may well be out before SMT. Going by numbers and induction date, they may not be starting with 100 in May. I think closer to 70 or 80 mark solely due to timescale. I can't rest until the phone call comes

    Wow. Medical Wed. Pass letter today. Phone calls are this week I presume. Scary biscuits

    What's the SMT?

    I'm one of the 2nd batch passes with an A*, PCA in a few days. Hope there's not the full 100 from the first batch of passes for selfish obvious reasons :D

    There's not full 100 but first induction is too soon for 2nd group so I think we're looking at 2 lots of 50/60 few weeks apart in Garnerville. SMT is substance misuse test where they take a hair sample.
    In my opinion last two weeks of medical passes will get a phone call this week coming to invite them to induction weekend

    Pca this week too. I think a couple of folk earlier on the boards mentioned around 60-70 got through the first set of pca's and I guess some of those will fail medical/vetting too.

    Well done! I'd say the phone calls should be sometime next week after the SMT results! Would allow the successful recruits 4 weeks or so to hand in notices and make arrangements etc leaving a start date early May for the first batch. That's my guess anyways lol

    congrats, well deserved. Does anyone know for certain that the successful people will be contacted by phone or will it be a letter?

    Pretty sure it's a phone call just to be sure they have made contact. Would imagine there would be a letter of confirmation as well

    As far as I know they phone in the first instance and follow up with paperwork but if they can't get you by phone they will write.

    Also the barber was very curious as to why there were a number of chunks missing from my hair lol

    Think it will be in next two weeks as I was speaking to a Sgt from training at the end of last week who told me that they were expecting the names of the new recruits shortly.

    Maybe we should have a wee list of those enduring 'the wait'. I was thinking earlier how far those remaining have come from being members of a 7,500 strong group of initial applications to potentially being in the top 100!

    In fact every single person who gets a place in the magical 378 has beaten 19 other people to it! That's pretty good going :)

    Just out of interest, where are people here from?? Most of you don't have a location up. If you don't want to be too specific, Northern Ireland or Republic of Ireland etc will do. Just interested to see if many from down south are going for it!

    Heard rumours that you lot will get 'the call' this week, but then again this whole process has been rife with rumours that end up not being true!
