G'day fellas, thanks for all the feedback and discussions....super pumped about getting in/through, can't wait to get stuck into the drill squad training! Bit delayed writing this as flat out trying to get stuff sorted!

Geez they left this late, not even sure i am within the required time to give notice! Whats the chances of failing the 6month probation period, got an offer but the letter recommends organising leave without pay from current job...not a chance, particularly if i tell them I am gone in two weeks!

...have not heard anything. May be end of the week or start of next...

Cheers for the info re the training block fellas. Really helpful. Interesting to read any injury and you have to start the whole process again. Tough break if it happened.
...next step wait and see!

G'day Everyone, I am hopeful of getting through the March intake and was wondering if anyone could provide a bit of back ground on the 3 month training block so I can figure out what I may be in for and need to plan ahead to keep the family happy(!)?
Things like
1. Is it 5, 6 or 7 days a week at 8, 10 or 12hr days.
2. What amount of extra study is required at the end of the day (homework!)
3. Is there specific fitness sessions during the day or is that done in our own time?

If there are any other suggestions or recommendations then would be great to hear them.

Cheers
