Yeah, when I went and spoke to the recruiting staff, they said that it was the extra component that was needed to fulfill the requirements that were previously filled by the obstacle course. Apparently the WAPOL doctors only just signed off on the agility test, hence its late inclusion.

Originally they were only going to get us to complete the agility test before we are due to start in June, however going on the information I have now received it appears that we will have to resit all stages of the PPE, before we begin at the academy.

yeah thats alright, did it just eight weeks ago... luckily I dont find it to difficult, but yeah I know there will probably be a lot of guys who probably wont be stoked about having to run a beep test on a public holiday, if it is the case that it all has to be redone... I would have to guess that there wont be too many people blow it at the last hurdle...

Hey all...

Today I had to sit my P.E.E. I thought it was going to be a whole lot harder than it was however the time limit given on some tests was a joke!

Also wasnt to keen on finishing the day with a 567 True or False questionnaire... that was painful!

If anyone else is thinking about joining then I must recommend you get your hands on the Police Tutoring material from PARAGON TRAINING.... It helped me out a whole lot!!!!

Well done Singkenten! awesome to hear! i've just done another practice beep test tonight and by looks of things the PPE shouldnt be a problem.

I have been told that the Psychological interview is reallllly intense?!? can you confirm this Singkenten??

Cheers

I don't think that it's a good idea to give an insight into the PI on a puplic forum Singkenten. I doubt that recruitment would be very impressed with the discussion at hand.

get real buddy. Why do you have to be so self righteous? Almost makes my stomach churn. I don't think him saying, yeah it was rough etc.. will really open up any big state secrets.

Woobla, you are entiltled to your own opinion and I suggest you don't turn this into/ nor am I interested in an online argument, you don't know me and I don't know you, but Singkenten's comments were not simply saying that the PI was 'rough'. (Don't take this as a personal attack Singkenten)

Those who have gone through Police testing would be well aware of the confidentiality requirements put forward by recruitment and are expected to abide by that.
