    Just got an email to say I passed :) score of 64!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 72 ✭✭candidate2013


    Ditto ditto, this really isn't a good feeling lol

    Wish I'd never heard about this from my brother, could have survived the night in ignorant bliss.

    I can tell from reading your posts, that like me, you really wanted this - painful feeling no doubt.

    By the next recruitment in maybe 2016, my window will probably be closed.

    I would've loved to be blissfully unaware too lol, really wanted it is an understatement, lol, I just don't know what to say to everybody in my family who are all involved in the police, who are rooting for me, that I didn't get to the AC, what can I do, I suppose try and try again


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 684 ✭✭✭wanadrum


    Don't give up hope at least until you have your result!

    I haven't heard of anyone failing as yet.

    I am thinking all the passes are going out first...the longer we go hearing nothing, the more likely we have failed :(

    Yeah true, but I'm thinking everyone who's through finds out first and those that haven't been successful last, not hearing of anyone failing is kinda worrying me lol, I'm gonna try and clock off and if I hear any more Info tonight I'll post the results yay or nay, this is gonna be fun trying to get to sleep tonight not knowing lol

    Sat mine on the 9th November


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 112 ✭✭Rj408


    Still no word for me also, and I too am starting to think the longer it goes on the less chance I have which will completely and utterly devastate me....

    Congratulations to everyone who passed it!

    Has anyone that has heard results got lower than 60 in their ISTs?
    Could be a case they are doing it within result boundaries.

    Keep your head up and try again next time


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48 Natascha2013


    There's no point in giving up just yet :(

    You could have aced it and that's why it's not through! They said the 28th for a reason...could be something as daft as alphabetical order/county/UID etc etc the possibilities and combinations are huge.

    Only a few more days and you'll know for sure either way :) Good luck, I've my fingers crossed for ya!

    Similar scenario here, and for various reasons I really needed to do it this time.

    Try again you say, but when? - got to be late 2015, maybe 2016.

    Long time to wait.

    If I dont make it, I will probably apply for a Mainland force and try and get a PSNI transfer at some point.

    I dont want to be waiting till the 28th for what looks like a no.

    I'm with you on that but I don't think anyone should give up hope yet


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12 Jen2013


    I am going to bed... hopefully will wake up to an email tomorrow. Either way I would like to know


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 444 ✭✭Sthm


    I know it may be easy for me to say this at this stage but stay positive, guys. I would imagine the e-mails are sent in batches of some sort and may continually go out from tonight until up to the 28th.

    We're still in the game until we hear either way :)

    Hi, congrats to those who have passes thus far...

    I have also got pass email today and had a couple of questions.

    Email mentions not being exempt from providing prove of requisite 5 GCSE's even if you have higher quals? I have 4 at that level, although have btec OND, and honours degree, a couple of units in NVQ 2. Am I interpreting this correct? If I can't provide evidence of having 5 gcses (or equiv) at a-c, regardless of overall academic achievement, then I won't progress?

    Many thanks...
