    in my case (in sure others are in the same boat) there was no point in me reapplying, simply because the only thing that will kick me out of the 1309 campaign is vetting which would come back exactly the same if i reapplied and got to that stage again.

    Same Here

    I reapplied but considering giving the ist a miss as well. Really want to contact them to see about vetting but can only see me getting the answer that it's not complete which will just worry me lol!

    I'm not assuming this but it's very possible they just have the default stance of telling every person who enquires that it's still ongoing. Protects them in case something crops up at the lat minute that they were previously unaware of.

    A sense of relief and also the sense that I'm the victim of an expensive and elaborate prank.

    Can I ask how many weeks before start date the induction weekend is?

    I've literally one weekend with a personal commitment in the next few months and I don't have to me Mystic Meg to predict what's going to happen!

    The induction is approx 4 weeks before the actual start date. Remember induction is a whole weekend too and not just one day...

    Aye you're right there. Keener than ever ha. Not quite finished mines. I have a lot of the boxes ticked but don't know it as well as I'd like so that's why I printed it out. Was always leaving it til after medical before getting stuck in properly.
