    Passed everything too. Was 2b online and did my medical mid May. Just waiting now. I heard 2nd batch got calls start/mid may. Fingers crossed I hear something for the next lot, but I'd be happy with any intake as long as I get lol

    Good luck, you should be grand. I was concerned about an old knee injury but a few squats and hoping across the room did the trick lol. Drs and nurse are lovely.

    I had been sitting down for so long that when it got time to do the squats my knee joints were popping like mad! Was worried they'd fail me for old man joints in a young man's body :P lol

    should have heard the crack my knee made when i squatted, the doctor near cringed, but didn't have any pain or difficulty moving it so all was good! I did think for a split second that my knee making such a dodgy sound would have messed things up....

    Well as far as I see it we've done two weeks of waiting so far and it hasn't been TOO bad, only 3 to go until next phone calls I think! Anyone else tempted to book it off work to be able to sit beside their phone all day? Haha for once I'm actually glad of uni keeping me busy.

    Thanks :) only thing that worries me is hearing in right ear, though saying that I have passed the medical three times. :D

    Apparently I have a slight hearing impairment in one ear that I hadn't a clue about and I passed. Should be ok if you've passed before bit good luck anyway

    Passed everything and also waiting on 'the call'. Was part of 2a for Online Learning and passed medical in Mid April. Is anyone that is still waiting, going to apply again in the new campaign?

    Part of 2A myself. Hoping for the call in June too. Missed out last intake probably as medical was only a few days prior to calls going out. Fingers crossed.

    If we are this far don't think there's anything stopping us getting in. Don't think I'll reapply.

    As a previous post said, they wouldn't spend hundreds on a drugs test if they wernt intending on offering that person a position, its the very last stage and my reckoning is that they don't send people for that stage unless everything else is cleared....as in the vetting.

    I had my drugs test last month and my vetting still hasn't cleared... Out of the 5 checks they do only two are back, doesn't necessarily indicate a problem, I've a big family and some take longer than others, my drugs test was passed weeks ago but I'm still waiting... sorry to disappoint, but an invitation to drugs tests doesn't mean your vetting has cleared :(
