    I'm just catching up with this thread today. Beginning to worry a bit as I've had no letter. I live in North Down and scored 65-70. My name is begging of alphabet both first and surname. UID early also......

    It is a horrible thought to come this far and think it could go no further but the previous campaigns have taken in large amounts and continued to work down the list picking people out of this campaign who had scored 60-63 last year to be progressed ... so we can only hope that out of the 900 that even the last 100 will get called up

    Don't forget of the 169 that scored 70%+ a proportion could fail PCA, vetting or medical. Or just drop out for some reason.
    Then they go to the next on the list :)

    I'm still feeling pretty confident even with the upcoming elections and possible new Justice Minister.
    If they put a hold on recruitment this could be last campaign for while so they could exhaust the list. Or they could want to boost numbers and again exhaust the list.

    I'm a glass half full kinda guy :D

    FOI request through. 905 passed.....146 over 50, 590 over 60, 155 over 70 and 14 over 80%.


    2121 people attended so that would be why they lowered the pass mark.

    I had a similar request in and got the same answer obviously.

    I noted that yours asked how many they were taking depending on funding. Did they answer that bit?

    Thanks

    Hi,

    I didn't submit the request I just happened to see it a few days ago so (on the 'whatdotheyknow' website) so I registered to receive an email when any updates occurred. I didn't notice if they answered that section though.

    I followed another one that was worded slightly different but it hasn't been answered yet.

    Would be interesting to see if there was a similar request for the previous campaign.

    There was. Their intention on the previous campaign was for 378 recruits I think. However that is just from memory.
    The number of passes is very similar obviously so I'm hazarding a guess they may have a similar plan for this campaign. The previous one was set back by funding cuts.

    Hey guys first time poster on here and have to say it's a great thread. You may find it of interest that they need to recruit new officers into 2019 if funding permits. So I think this intake could be as large as previous ones but as usual slow in the processing.

    Apologies if this has already been answered but are we certain that these intakes will be based upon order of AC score only and not the combined AC score and IST result?

    As far as I'm aware it's AC Score first and then they'll take the IST result into consideration for candidates with the same AC mark.

    When I last did it they were sent out at the same time. Unsure if this was the same for C2 as well though...

    Glad to see the ball rolling as I'm only in this campaign, but feel genuinely gutted for those in 1405 with scores of 60/61/62 who haven't received their forms yet. Must be soul destroying.

    Just got my vetting forms also.

    I wouldn't panic about The PCA folks.

    Firstly it isn't that difficult.

    Secondly they allow plenty of time to prepare. You even get a couple of weeks notice for a familiarisation day.

    I would imagine they've sent out vetting forms so they can get a start on the first couple of intakes from September. Vetting can take ages and it makes perfect sense to send them out now.

    Is there any chance this is being done on location of candidates in terms of operational needs or definitely done by AC scores because at the minute it seems random as hell as to who is receiving what?
