Does anyone know what is involved in filling up the gp clearance form. Do we just hand it into our gp or have we to fill up times and dates of our doctors visits. My gp took ill a few months back and there has been a few different doctors covering for him in the surgery and a few different secretary's so it could took an age to get the form completed.

Bring it into your gp, they’ll take your height weight etc sign and stamp it. Not much to it

When did you send back Form B and how soon after did you get the GP Form to be completed?

Wow that was quick! I sent mine back Monday last week and still haven't heard anything.

Out of curiosity, did you have much to fill out on Form B?

Have we all started training for the physical?

I have the past few weeks now. Can do all of it handy enough. Struggling to get the weight down though, I lifted weights intensely the past two years so I'm a bit heavier. If you're over on the BMI are there any exceptions if you're still pretty fit? Thanks

From reading past PCT's, if your over the BMI but its as a result of muscle as opposed to just being over-weight, then you should be fine.

What exactly is involved in the PCT?

Wonder should I try to contact them?

Thanks!

the amount of each exercise depends on age, but for me its 25 press ups (no time limit) 35 sit ups in 1 minute, score 8.8 on bleep test, complete an obstacle course 3 times in 3 minutes and 20 seconds and then a push/pull test

Thanks a mill! Do you know if its one after the other or if there's breaks in between?

I think the running and press ups/sit up are together then a break and then the course and push/pull. Just going from what I've read anyways

Ya possibly. Hopefully tomorrow. Do you know who we contact for updates

St.Brigids

Fingers crossed. I haven't contacted them myself. I was mainly worried that I had done something wrong when I sent it back and they didn't receive it.

Nope, rang them today to see what the story was and was told that my application was with the vetting crowd, so they would either be getting back to me with any queries on it if something needed to be verified or they would be sending on the GP form.

More or less told to hold tight! :rolleyes:
