    did people get told a number after their fitness test, Is it not just being told on the day that you passed?

    Your number or OOM is what ya got after your interview from PAS,you were just told if you passed or failed the PCT.

    I'm same 12months this week. Its really hard not being able to commit to anything or make plans


  • Registered Users Posts: 21 Willoughby


    Got called for my PCT in early October.

    Not confident I'll be ready for it but gonna go ahead with it and if I'm not this time Ill hopefully be better ready for the 2nd attempt.

    Glad to see they are back up and running anyways so it feels like some progress.

    That's correct but for the first 29 years the money is dirt.

    Did everyone pass the pct test yesterday

    Seemingly not. Was in small groups so can't say for certain but seemingly someone pulled a muscle or something and that done them.

    They explain to you before you sign off that it's important you are confident you can complete fitness because once you have signed if you have to stop for any reason that is your first go done, even if it's an injury etc.

    They really do their best for you down there and want to see you pass but no point going to try it if you don't think you are ag the point of passing each requirement. Better off postponing until you are right.

    A few weeks running or practice does an awful lot for you so stick with it.

    As such I'd say ya. They said they tend to come in batches but just have to wait is all can be done I suppose.
