Study hard remember all the parts, then you are studying for something else, then next test, then next test.

A question to Thor or anyone who has been in a drill squad. How many reserves are taken to do the pat2 and medical?
Cheers

[triple j]

I Think last time they took four reserves... Why is something happening with a new drill squad?

Just looking through the previous posts and noticed that there were either 2 or 4 reserves mentioned and was interested to see if anyone new the number who had been on a course?

Ive been on a course and you dont get told how many reserves there was, as you know u get told bugger all throughout the process. Only people who would know would be HR even the reserves wouldnt know the number, they would just know that they are a reserve. I couldnt see it being more than 2 or 3 because not many people fail once they get to pat2 and it is no big deal to call someone up if 5 happened to fail.

sounds like there is a bit of movement at the station,
is there any news about anymore drill squads?

[flyonthewall]

I heard that there may possibly (99.9%)be one.

I heard some have been notified their Pat 2 will be in April

[BT085]

Pat 2 in april... I have heard on good authority that the next 22 were called last week to come in for pat 2 for a recruit course that begins in may. Spewin I wasnt one of them .... Hopefully they run another late next yr like they did in 2009/2010 pool.

[JLS]

I heard that calls went out last week informing that letters will come out by the end of the year for a recruit course at the end of March!! Either way it seems like a long time between the phone call to time of pat2.

Testing may have expired if it is too late in the year. Think psych is only valid for 12 months. Could be wrong

Atleast they are keeping people informed instead of all the guessing and hearsay

[gasman]

Did everyone who requested feedback after the interview get it? Unfortunately when they rang me for mine i was in the hospital with my daughter and unable to take the call. They said they would call back but they never did. Going to polish up my letter writing skills and request a written response.

Sorry I probably meant May

Does this mean there is going to be two courses early next year?
