I just got my feedback from stage two and I actually did well in the interview and passed it but failed the report writing, could anyone PM me a good home study course that would help me pass it next time??

Much appreciated and good luck to anyone starting next week

you just have to write a letter into PAS asking for it and they post it out to you, include your candidate number etc

Hi Jacqui21,

August 6th is the next intake date. You can usually defer. Im not sure if you have to have a valid reason, ie family etc. but if you really want to defer the best thing to do is just ask the person who rings you to say you're in and see what they say. Ive heard of people who havn't had any problem in deferring so id say that's your best option.

hope this helps.

Hey man I would be removing were you placed in the aptitude test above, as this is a public forum and you never know who is reading your posts.

Hey Kaizer,

Next thursday for a consultation to see if im suitable for it, which hopefully i will be!!

After that, id be hoping to get it done within 2 weeks , cos I then have to wait 6 weeks after it to contact the Medical people for a PCT date.

Any word on your medical date?

srdb20 · 02-05-2008 12:10pm

No still no word on the medical, im hoping to get it out of the way as soon as possible though, hopefully hear something next week.

Ah sure look on the bright side, at least you can get a holiday in before you start in August man.

Im sure theyre just clearing the backlog at the minute to get May filled, they'll probably be in contact with you next week or the week after.

Yeah, im hoping to get away for the last 2 weeks of July, get away from all this stress of worrying about medicals/pcts/interviews/freezes !!

ojewriej · 02-05-2008 1:22pm

I was talking to the Appoitments today, apparently my last remaining check didn't come back on time, so now they are keeping a place for me in the August intake.

I'm quite happy with that actually.
