Sounds like your email provider Dan, not MFAT. (I'm presuming your name's Dan...?)
yea im dan and when my freinds send me an e-mail i recive it within 15 mins. Nothing i can do about it though so all i can do is wait.
I dont know weather ill have enough time to get fit for rm, a man is ringing me this month. do you know if he will interview me over the phone or will he just ask me why i whant to do it and if i train.
if he's going to interview me i better get reading up on the history.

Or just check the forum instead, seems the logical choice...
And no you don't get interviewed over the phone, he'll just tell you to go to the AFCO to get the ball rolling. You don't have to wait for him to ring, it's really not that important. See http://www.mfat.co.uk/forums/viewtopic.php?t=11777 if you're still unsure of what goes on...
Its just i signed online a while ago but i wear to young.I recived a letter telling ma a man would ring in april. and cheers for the link, whats your status with the rm?

Waiting for PRMC, same as everyone else...
I'm pretty sure if you just go into the AFCO and explain things they'll sort you out. Don't worry mate, it's not that scary..
yea im dreading the first commando style beasting, my old man did a commando course in 1990, failed it then failed the next and he realy put his heart into it but still failed. do you think ill have enough time to get fit enough? and good luck with your prmc
dan first you need to go down the afco and they will give the info you need and application forms. Once you have filled these in and sent them back you will get a date for your written test. If you pass this you have to do an eye test. Then an interview which will be done at the afco. There loads of topics on this somewhere. After that its the medical and pjft and onec you have passed all these you will get a date for prmc so i think you do have more than enough time to get fit as it took me about 5 months from going to the afco to getting a date for prmc. I dont know how long it took for other people as it ranges but you wont be getting a prmc date just yet.
Err cant remeber all the sections seems ages since i did it. Think it consists of mechanical, numeracy, literacy and 2 others. Its not pish easy like the armys but its not solid either. The afco will give you some practice books before you do it.
even if it was real hard im sure with the practise books nearly all people would pass if they wanted. im off to the afco next week, instead of that feller ringing me.
BTW mate, a word of warning. On the Written test you must achieve a certain level on each part. COncentrate on mechanical comprehension. On my PRMC 1 decent lad who got excellent scores apart from the bleep test which he fell short of lev 11, that alone can stop your entry. Guys who got an RT4 which means they need lev 11 on bleep test and no less. Just make sure you do your best. If you don't get RT4 you will see how pressurizing it is on PRMC. Do well mate.
When i did the written test a few months ago now, only two of us passed out of 8!!, wasn't exactly rocket science but you only get 8 mins a section which is not long at all consider you sometimes read the questions twice, so my tip is stay calm read the question slowly and clearly and above all if you miss any out just guess them, i guessed five on the test and got them all right!
PJFT: June o6 - 9.07
PRMC: Passed December 07
RT: February 08
