Hi all, so I'm a delayed person, scored 82% in ac and had pca this morning. 16 there, 2 didnt turn up. All but 4/5 wer female. About 8 of us passed. Good luck to those yet to do it. Bit of advice, don't worry about the wall or things, u get to try these before. I also hit a cone and had to re do the cone zig zag thing again. I gave 80% on first lap and was tired after, 70% on second lap and was dead bt 3rd lap, that's when I hit a cone but just kept going! The push pull, I'm a 5ft 3 lady and had no bother with the push pull height.
Give it ur all, don't give up and keep pushing till u finish the 3rd lap. Sprint to that final cone, 1 second cud be a pass or fail!

So 50 per cent failed? Why the high percent? Fitness, technique?

They didnt mention other groups though no1 asked. Yea about 8 passed maybe even 7. I don't know why as we were sent with our envelopes to leave first though in my opinion I'd say due to the circuit and not going quick enough. I was really slow on last lap but ran like mad to the finish line. I'd say if u keep a steady pace you'll pass, u don't need to sprint it all.

Yea I'd love to know my time as I did have to do the zig zag comes again on te last lap am thought that was going to ruin my time

Sorry folks meant to say out of 16 only 4/5 were male! All the rest female

Delayed group too and a low B... haven't been overly optimistic but looking forward to doing physical etc for the experience!

Have you got ur vetting forms etc yet or word of the medical? I've got nothing n was starting to panic a bit. 😖

How did I know 8 passed? There was only 16 of us, lined up going in 1 after another. When we all had done it we all were lying on the floor in the hall chattin and waiting for about 5min. A lady came in and then called out about 7/8 names not in alohebitacal order. We went to the door and all got the same envelope that u can tell is a pas due to the feel (you'll know what I mean if u get one, don't want to give away!)
Honestly, I haven't trained properly in about a year! I only went out for a run round my area about 3 times before it! I'm not fit but used to be heavily into sport. I cud feel it on the last lap. I really don't think it's how fit u r, just keep in ur head one foot after another and never walk, keep a steady pace and sprint that finish line!

I see the policing board has confirmed next recruitment scheduled for end of May

I just wouldn't imagine they would have a good enough idea of what numbers to progress further in the next campaign until they have progressed everyone on this one. If the remainder of us pass all stages and are in an appointable band, would we not be on the merit list and therefore waiting on a training date ahead of the new applicants?

I reckon that with the pca they don't think they will have enough from this campaign

What do we reckon then, anyone under 65 will be waiting 5 weeks or so for vetting forms and pca date?

If not within the next two weeks then I'd wager 5 weeks.
