    Do you mind sharing an approx OOM it gives the rest of us some hope and lets us see how the rest of us stand.;)

    I'm in the 550s regards my oom...just wondering with drop out's...failed medical physical etc...Does your oom drop in account of these???


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,906 ✭✭✭TallGlass


    Lads honestly don't go on OOM, it has nothing to do with it at all when the application hits AGS. I'm waiting two years, I am reading people ahead of me getting offers. Don't go by OOM.

    Got my email, oom of around 500....absolutely over the moon. Congrats to all the other who got offers, can't wait to get meeting you all. To anyone still waiting on offers keep the heads up, it will come eventually

    Anyone under 50 merit from Sept16 still awaiting an offer?

    My bf applied sept 2016 with oom 70 and he wasn't offered a place for November. Have to wait another 3 to 4 months now again.

    I don't think you can go by oom by the looks of things

    Hi everyone,

    Posting on here for the first time in a while. Got an offer today and absolutely delighted but down to some circumstances I requested a deferral.

    The response states that they've accepted it but that I may not get another place and may have to repeat physical and medical again.

    Can someone who has deferred before please shine some light on this, is it true etc or what is your personal experiences. If you do not wish to post on the boards please pm me to discuss further

    Thank you

    Yes just came home from holidays today to it waiting for me, just general info on what to bring as well as some FAQ's and info on pension and that kind of thing. It's quite basic and said we'd get more info during orientation.

    If you go to the thread Garda trainees ( Templemore) there is great advice for a lot of those practical issues. Good luck!

    I haven't posted much myself. To be honest didn't think I was going to get in. I'm from the January 2016 campaign and my OOM was 900 ish.

    I think its relaint on multiple factors including OOM. Has your vetting cleared?

    Hi guys!

    I got called for the November intake too. My oom from last September's campaign is 417.
    My induction starts Tuesday 31st October...there have been a couple of different dates mentioned here but I presume we'll all be starting at the same time?
    Can someone please set me up with the WhatsApp group?

    Thanks and congratulations to everybody!

    Simple answer.

    Beards/Facial hair = No. You will be told on day one so make the most of it while you have it!

    Sorry about that but its standard practice in AGS and is enforced, you know yourself you never see a Guard with a beard.

    If you get into cretin detective units such as drugs then it will be allowed but until then we have to start buying into Gillette again!

    I ditched mine for the interview before last Christmas :o . I'm sure you meant certain rather than cretin :p
