    From the posts it seems successful people are getting their results quickly..some did theirs on 12th may and got results today , i did mine on 6th May and still no results..agggggggggggg

    I have a strong feeling Ive failed...:mad: It would make sense to send successful IST results first to give optimum time for AC...:confused:

    Edzzy I think there have been people who have got their letters 1 and 2 weeks early who have failed, so don't panic yet

    Theres not many on here that need my help by the looks of it. I'm going alright at them, passed 3 times now and passed everything twice. I just never seem to score high enough in the A/C, but my scores are increasing each time i do it. Just gotta live in hope it will be high enough this time round.
    How many times have you had a crack at it?

    Sorry to hear you missed out by one point ( join the club, horrible feeling).
    Best of luck with C14.

    Thanks.

    No one to blame but myself. I didnt give my all, I know that. Was caught up on just having my med from C14. Guess I should have tried harder. Hope I dont need to try next year!

    All the best to you.

    Sorry to hear that. Its a tough exam alright, and the experience of doing it will serve you well in the future as you'll know what to expect.

    Dont think anything is definite about recruitment next year as far as I'm aware, just keep an eye on the join psni website.
    There definitely wont be anything before next March year.

    Congrats to you, so it begins again! Take it your non RC if 700+ merit didnt get you in from C14? I was sub 400 and looks like I missed out by less than 20 places....:(

    Oh no - how frustrating for you, thats the worst of it when you get so so close - well done you though for a really good merit number, at least you know you dont have to improve a huge amount. Yeh, im non RC, was just pleased i passed though, its such a tough process.
    The initial test is so hard esp with the time limits and with the increased pass score. For me i got lucky, i really feel for those who only just didnt make it.:(
