    Next PCT is 06th December as posted by some one here I would take it if you have not received an email inviting you to it then I think any chance of doing a PCT now before Xmas is slim

    I done mine in August and still haven’t heard. I rang IPS yesterday and said they are still waiting on my clearance. I’ve no family outside of Ireland. One of my friends has just passed out and he was saying from the time he applied it took 2 years, it’s a lot faster this time but I can’t imagine us being called before jan.

    Best of luck with it. Type out the clearance form, if it's hand written they wont accept it unless your writing is immaculate.

    Expect to be there for the day Paddy, I was there from midday until 6ish. Bring a lunch with you as they provide tea and biscuits but not a lunch. On the physical the only advice I can give is don't expend too much energy on the warm-up attempts on the push/pull machine, save it for your 5 reps that they grade you on. Good luck!
