    Good stuff, the next set of calls will be, week commencing the 18th of February or the following week commencing the 25th. Either way, it's not long to wait, especially after waiting for the best part of a year and a half.

    Yep, I passed with 4 seconds to spare. :rolleyes:

    We'll be doing trim-trail running, body weight exercises (lunges, sit ups etc.) and will be tested on bleep tests and the PCA course. Great fun...

    Don’t just do running. Do strength and conditioning, people mistake it for just running. It’s not. I ran it in 3:02 and intend on making that under 3 in a rerun! And I done all s&c work with only a max of 3 mins running at a time at a hard pace. The trim trail you will obv need running to help. The bleep test is a nonsense test if you ask me but if needs must.

    All my fingers and toes crossed for you guys and girls!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9 Hedgehog100


    TW2017 - thanks for setting up the group. I am 500-550. I heard from a good source today that intakes will be larger for at least the next couple of months with up to 70 in each squad. So very encouraging for everyone in the merit pool especially us in the 500-650 range. Keep running and keep active everyone, hopefully only 2-3 more weeks to wait.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22 jojobubbles


    Just found this link in the other group chat, just cleared vetting and hoping for an April intakeðŸ˜

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17 Golfer0011


    The people who had there call 2 weeks ago have there induction. Hopefully get some info off them today


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7 Nova1999


    Hi Guys, long time lurker here, ML between 650/660 with everything passed, what is realistically the likelihood of getting a call and if so when could the call be for? Appreciate any info, thanks. Congrats to everybody who has got the call so far, this has been dragging on a long time, I reapplied this time and was wondering should I bother sitting the AC again, don’t want to go through that again 😃

    Hey, not hoping for April intake but just monitor all the threads in the hope of getting more info. By my guess you'll be getting a call around March if not then April. Theyve already got to number 510 on merit list with 36 applicants having not passed physical (according to an FOI I read) with other people dropping out in the mean time. I'm 720-740 on the list with medical due in the next few weeks and I'm still very much hopeful for a call in June or August at the latest. No fast track for 1810 this year which means no appointable list until Sept 2019. Hope this makes sense.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7 Nova1999


    Yea that makes sense, thanks very much, I appreciate the reply, just wait and see I guess. I hope things work out for you.
