B~#@OCKS and F*@K
Just woke upto a letter from AFCO saying my ADSC date had now been changed from 16th july to 3rd of august!!!!!!!!
Well gutted and extremely annoyed!!
When i rung them its apparently due to the fact that i asked for an earlier date originally as couldnt get the 16th july off work however got that sorted and now they have changed it!!!!
So the lesson here guys is: once you get ya date unless its EXTREMELY URGENT that you cant make ya date, DONT SAY A THING!!!
Gonna go cry into a cuppa!

My final interview is tomorrow before being put forward for selection. My recruiter said 2-3 weeks so it might be around mid July also.

In my final interview the WO asked me about the 6 values of the army (discipline, selfless commitment, courage, integrity, loyalty n respect for others) so thats worth remembering
good luck..

Oh cool Im going to pirbright, I think all girls do
whats your run time,
did u go to the pre-adsc before they put you thru?
my runtime at pre adsc was 12.12, but I hear that because the run is on the 2nd day of ADSC normally peoples time is a bit slower cos of all the fitness done on the first day

nice one guys!
I'm going for Combat Med Tech, I really wanted to go for dog handler but there's like 20 places a year available and apparently most of those places go to ppl already in the army that want to transfer to RAVC.. so I dont think the chances r in my favour!
Im well nervous about the run n general strength etc, even tho I passed the pre-adsc (also colchester ) Im still doing pressups with my knees on the floor .. and still cant do even 1 chin up
hows ur strenght?

When did they tell u the intake is for CMT?
They aven't actually said when I might be starting trainign but they told me not to get my hopes up of it being soon :/
10 full pressups is really good..
