Well the recruiting office have sort of been misguiding you. Yes you will still start training but if you are not up to the standards it will be with another regiment.
Things you feel like doing after being hit in the liver :
-Vomitting
-Suffocating
-Shitting yourself
-Passing out
-Crying for your mummy
-Stop taking part in any kind of violent sport.......

Why do they never just tell you straight? :evil:

Thanks for clearing that up! Has any of these courses/selections happened yet?

Is the Pre-Para done right before your actual Para training, so if you pass you start training imedietly?

I assume the Pre-Para is done at Catterick?
And also . . . do Junior Entry also have to pass Pre-Para, not that I care if I go or not but I am curious.
