hey, it doesnt really matter what age you are, just so long as you feel ready...i think i'm correct in saying the pass rate is about 60%, if you want to know what it consists of just read one of the PRMC diaries that are stickys on the first page

mate its been said before use the search button. There are hundreds of pages on prmc. Have a look at the Prmc diarys at the top to get an idea. There is no set number of how many people pass or fail some weeks the failure rate might be high next week could be low. As to whens the best age to do prmc is up to you. How old are you?

have you even enquired about joining yet???.....the reason i ask is because when you initially enquire they give you lots of information booklets and you watch videos etc, this would be your best bet rather than trying to find out all the info on here

LANGAN, you're enthusiasm is great but over the last week you have posted several (7 in the space of a couple of days!) new topics and in every single thread someone has (politely) told you to use the search button as nearly every topic has been covered 100 times before.
Are you posting questions for the sake of it? Do you read the replies that you get? If reading and taking in one simple piece of info is too much for you, than can I hazard a guess that you may not cope to well with the amount of new things you will have to squeeze into your little head during basic training for any of the Armed Forces?
Rant over.

Yeah, maybe i bit harsh, but nothing compared to what some of the guys that have been on this board for ages will say to him if he doesn't sort it out.
Besides, I can just see his posts heading towards "Are marines given rocket launchers???"

It's all in good taste LANGAN with no offence. Use the force...read the source!

Joe, I spoke to the AFCO afer my PJFT and he said what date do you want for PRMC. I have my uni graduation week from 10-14th July so I said as soon as possible after that. I am hoping it will be late July, worse case early August. I have no fixed date yet, I guess he will give me that nearer the time. If I find out I will let you know.
My pullups are coming on well and my endurance running is pretty much licked. But I still have to focus on the pressups and situps as well as circuit training. I have my last exam on 30th May so will be going turbo throughout June.
