I made the mistake of being TOO honest on the medical, I am waiting for my GP to write me up a clean bill of health letter so I can continue, I've worked so hard to get to this point so I was heartbroken to see the red box saying no, because of a past medical issue. Fingers crossed my letter will get me back in

I went to our recruitment office had my aptitude test, maths English etc, and then the same day off for a medical, passed no problem, and that was it, I was offered various positions I opted for an Infantry Regiment The Sherwood Foresters Regt that was at age 15 1/2 I went in Sept 1969, left in 1983 great days. Now it takes forever because it's mainly a civilian company doing it, there are some military advisors but it takes far, far too long. high time it was given back to our own military and sack the civvies.

great video helped alot mate thank you🙏🏼

I got deferred 3 year ago and I’ve got selection in 2 days great video Claimed my nerves hearing that is basically the same as when I did it

Thanks, feel better after watching this

Great video mate. Recently started my own KZfaq channel to do with the army and your videos are giving me some real good inspiration. Thank you!

Also today i found out I would go to either Pirbright or Winchester. And I've hear "amazing" things about pirbright and the assault course.

I grew up in the military, my dad served 34 years! Did my selection in 98, Lichfield. Basic training ATR Winchester! This guy is younger then me, this weight lift shizzle never 😂 respect to the lad tho!

Watching your videos has given me much more confidence I have my assessment on the 31st of May

Great video!

Hi Kyle, I recently signed up and honestly, I’m very nervous about this because I’m not if I’m honest physically very fit but I’m starting to train myself up, starting with walking and running. That’s the most of my worries because I am overweight (I’m not gonna beat around the bush). As well as having Mild Aspergers as well which I feel might fail me if I’m not careful, and whilst it doesn’t affect me a lot, it has affected me job wise. Having a look at the video has given me some piece of mind because it gives me a good idea what to expect honestly. I’m still nervous and frankly frightened but I’m glad there’s someone here to explain how everything is going to work, because most of this I could probably do, even if I’m not extremely strong or very fast. I feel like the army can really help me in confidence, discipline and weight issues. Thank you so much for this video, it means a lot to hear what people who have been there have to say, and I can assure you that I will certainly give it my all no matter what.

Thanks you are a big help

I have my assessment start tomorrow it ends Wednesday this was so helpful I feel so much more confident and I’m really excited thanks so much for the information

I’m going to the assessment centre on the 7th of June and feeling confident about everything apart from the medical because as you’ve said it’s out of our hands and I have already had to appeal my application from past history with asthma but I’ve been medically cleared of it now and it’s off my medical records. Still nervous if they find anything wrong with my respiratory system

I've got my assessment for the 9th of May (3 days from now) at Lichfield! Pretty excited, just hoping I peform good for the 2KM run or BLEEP test as well as the interview.

Going up to Edinburgh next month for my assessment glad to know what I'm gonna be doing

Passed my selection back in august , start in feb , most worried about medical but passed with no problems , I recommend you do the technical text even if you aren’t sure what job you want to do as it opens a few more options for you 👍🤙 good luck to all !

In my interview at my assessment centre the officer didn’t ask me any questions it was great it was just a informal chat about the army and if your excited and things like that

is the 2km run on a running track or somewhere else? thank you, great video.

Hello Kyle you see if you do the 2km run I want to join the para which is 8:15 what if I put maximum effort and are 15 seconds late would they give leniency or is it 8:15 on the dot or new job role, thanks.

I have my assessment centre next Wednesday and when I got my medical back before it stated (Ihave identified in your past medical history the following health problem which would usually result in your application being rejected on medical grounds: “Missing documentation (hospital letters /attachments) from your Health Care Records” They stated my primary health care record does not indicate that this problem has been resolved

I pass my selection around 2 weeks ago buzzing for phase 1 training the staff at pirbright were amazing can't for the training good luck to everyone who has there selection

Good video cal

Great video am Richard from Ghana 🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭 am done with my application process and it has been a successful am currently waiting for my date to start my phase one training

I am so nervous I need to go to the assignments canter soon

Huge thank you to you mate! All your videos on assessment have really helped, and I smashed it! I got 10.8 on beep and 66 on cognitive, I start at Catterick on 9th Jan

Hi Kyle, watched your video on appeal process. Can you still appeal if it was a deferral from assessment centre then another appt at their centre and a colonels decision. Because we disagree with a decision about hearing ? Ever come across it before ? Thanks

Got my assessment centre on the 9th of July! Looking forward to it.

I have my assessment on the 5th July and I’m fine with everything but the bmi. I’m 16 years old and am on the bmi of 27.2-27.8 and the max bmi is 28. I’m worried whether they’ll make me fail due to being near the limit?

Just came across your page, I've been waiting 2 years now for an assessment date

Hey Kyle I know ur all about army but do you know anything about RAF regt PGSC if you do can you give me some advice

got my assessment centre on the 11th of May at Lichfield so 4 days from now, just trying to look for people with the same day so atleast I've talked to someone

Thanks for this looking to join rmp reserves (yes I am unloved and bullied (ps this is sarcasm)) just hate the fact I’m going to have to absolutely smash the cognitive test. Is there any tips on this or how to make sure your score is of a really high level?

Hi mate! I have one question about the medical which regards to eye sight. My sight is decent I am able to drive fine and can very easily read the boards with the letters at the opticians, however I have 2% vision in my left eye so if my eyes get tested separately it is obviously very poor in my left eye, I was wondering if this would be the case during the medical therefore would I be rejected? Glasses will not help as it is scar in my eye and damaged. Thanks mate!

Hi mate, i know this is a older video now but i'm looking at going into reme and ive been told that im going to do the bleep test and not the 2km run

Hello! I passed my assessment the day before yesterday. Really excited for Harrogate. I start in March. I'm going for REME. I start in 6th March.

Do you know if it’s the bleep test of the 2km run ? Have my assessment in two weeks time and not quite fit the 2km run because my whole application process was so swift

I am a bit worried about the medical. I'd love it if you could make a video on the appeal process.

going to the assessment centre today : )

Im slightly underweight with abit of muscle im worried about the mid thigh pull the most everything else ive smashed ive been training on my bleep test and got 12.8 im pretty worried about this abit

Can the beep test alone fail you the assessment at the assessment center?

do not try remembering the eye chart, like we use to, those days are gone, they will now change the eye chart every time, to stop flight crews from cheating.

Although i dont think rhey do the run anymore im getting 8:40 run time so almost to Para level time

Great video. Got my assessment centre in a couple days and am most worried about my interview, any examples of good answers you could give to the most common questions?

Do you think the British army should boost the number of full time soldiers to 150,000 and major invested in

Hi m8, my son is 15y7m on Feb 19th so old enough to apply for Harrogate, when he goes to assessment centre does everything stay the same for him as in what's required for those older going for regular

Great video mate, Appreciate it! Am I right that it is going back to the 2k from the 17th aslong as COVID is still progressing

Kyle plz answer this If your injured sayy 4 days before the assessment could i i form my recruiter and re schedule the AC?

I'm shitting bricks, applied for the army about 3 months ago now, sent off for all my medical, all came back fine but I wasn't doing my training as much as I should, I'm a smoker and I'm 22 been smoking for a good 5 years and I've been running every day for the past 2 weeks, first time was something shit like 15:40, I've got it down to 13 minutes, told my recruiter I'll be fit enough for assessment by next month, really not sure if I am, do you recommend running everyday and will it help if I use running shoes/running gear, in joggers and basic trainers atm running round a gravel field, good video btw 👍

Do you know what the literacy and numeracy test are like. What sort of questions do you get asked as that’s what I’m most worried about?

Do you still need to do the TST (Technical Selection Test) If you have passed GCSEs?

Just passed mine glencorse 👍

What is everything that I need to bring with my for my assessment ??

Can I get a personal mentor cause I’m aspiring for the UK army

Can you fail a a 2km run if you can't run if you have shin splints or do you have to pass all tests 100%?

Hello Kyle do you know if they have scrapped the bleep test yet and if its just a 2k Thanks Mate.

I want to practice the maths test but have no idea way to find it can I plz get the link

Finally passed RGMD. Trying to book assessment but since the back log. They only have midweek. I'm a bit worried this isn't going to work around my job. My understanding is it should work round my civvy life. Am I being paranoid?

I can deadlift good amount so i think lll pas that one

I don't think I would pass the maths or English exams how hard is it?

I have my ac on the 22nd of June for Harrogate can't wait I want to join the royal artillery and my 2k is 9:25 any tips to get it down

armed forces medical have saved many people lives, even though they where rejected for service, the selection centre saved there lives, and you can always apply to the civilian contractors.remember there is 24000 civilians working for the armed forces. and i was told the other day, even civilians can stay on camp. never seen it, so have to check with your local camp and companies.

Just started the process. Unfit as fuck at the moment but it isn’t gonna take me long to get back to standard. Wish me luck in my ripe age of 26 😂😂

I'm unfit at the moment, do you think I should apply and start training? Or shall I do some training before applying?

Hello there. Do we have to do both the beep test and the 2K run?

If you previously smoked before medical, but no longer do, would you be rejected?

I have my assessment centre in 10 days. I’m really worried about the medical. When my medical records where processed I had to appeal something due to some minor back pain on my records from when I was 13 which I haven’t experienced since now I’m 18. I WON the appeal but I’m just worried now going to the assessment centre that they will reject me on this even though I won the first medical appeal and there is nothing wrong with my back ! Please advise me on this 🙈

goin assessment centre 23 june for paras and my 2k run is 7:44 but my bleep test the last time i did it 2 weeks ago was only 11 any tips ?
