just got back from the gmp um-um fitness test, please dont worry like i did beforehand it aint to bad

I have just been given confirmation of my medical for PCSO, on October 29th. I asked what should I expect? They answered 'not sure, just wear appropriate underwear'. Now, here's me thinking all sorts, but what should I actually expect to happen at the medical? I am awaiting a letter to confirm this, but just thought I'd ask you guys. MG

Hi All Just a quick question. I am due to start with west mids in december, and am trying to work out what my take home pay will be. Can anyone shed an light on what I can typically expect? Thanks Jon

Hi. Just had my medical and passed. Does anyone know how long it takes before your invited for the fitness test? I was told straight away that I passed, thought i would have to wait.

I applied to merseyside police finished my application this morning. There is just one thing worrying me when I was 17 which was 11 years ago now, I was cautioned for being in possession of an offensive weapon. It was a small craft knife in which I used in my line of work and yes I know I was stupid but I went straight into town afterwards to meet my friends in a night club but being my luck I was searched by a bouncer who straight away passed it to the police which obviously I cannot blame them for. I was stupid yes but young and did not think. I have never been in trouble with the police since. I want to know is this going to affect my chances because the is nothing mor…

I had my a/c for the psni back in july and got my letter thru at the beginning of august to say id passed. Still waiting on a date for my medical etc. Has anyone else got a date yet? All this waiting is doing my head in also, if i ring up can i find out what mark i passed the a/c with or do i just wait for the feedback? sorry i know these things have probably all been asked a million times before! they should really make it all less confusing! jay

Dear all, Hopefully someone on here will be able to help! I have passed the A/C and physical at Merseyside but failed their final interview (by 2 marks!). I have requsted that the notes form the interview get looked at as a shot in the dark, but not holding any hope on it. Basically, Merseyside have said that the A/C is vaild for 12 months and I can transfer my application to another force. I have spoken to Cumbria who have siad that I need to wait 6 months before it can be considered. Has anyone been/going through the same process and if so does every force require you to wait the 6 month? Any help would be really apprciated Thanks D…

Can anyone tell me if it is a problem joining if you have points on your licence? I had 3 points when i first passed back in jan 06. Recently and stupidly i have possibly another 6, for being uninsured. Thanks for any comments, been looking everywhere but no one seems to know the answer!

Also i was unable to attend the advice session , having the stuff sent to me , is it a must to attend itor can you get by without it. any advice and news woud be great thanks. jon
