I have had my medical and the completed D4 form from doctor. I have also got the D2 form to complete and send off but what class/classes am i putting on? Lorries C, C1, C1+E Buses D, D1 It has a box next to all but i am not sure the one/ones i should be ticking. Many thanks,

Hi all. I have queries re a specific question on the application form with regard to one of the comptency questions. If possible could i email a fed etc who would be willing to view my answer and say if they think it is suitable?

I was speaking to a colleague who has said you have to learn about 9 points of law (i.e. the most common) before you start as a student officer. The thinking behind this is that once you are sworn in, you are deployable and should know some basics. Is this true? Any other Sussex officers know which ones? I'm guessing section 5 public order, theft, assault etc. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Jim

Hi, I've just sent off my medical forms and they've asked for some further details on my trip to a physiotherapist. I've had problems with my RSI in my wrists. I work in a job where I'm on a computer constantly for eight hours a day which has aggravated this no end. What I'm asking is, will it affect my chances of employment? What are the rules on this?

Hi All! Been readin all your posts for wks now for tips on gettin through the recruitment stages - thought it was about time I post!

Ive talked to a probationer as well as officer whos been servin for 19 years. Any advice as to any holes in my research or tips in general? Any and all help much appreciated!!!

Hey guys. I'm 6 weeks away from getting a 204 medical discharge from the Royal Military Police. My own fault, I mentioned to the doctor that occasionally when I run, I get slight ache in my right knee. Anyway, my question is, if I apply to my chosen force (Avon and Somerset) would they ask for access to my medical history and judge me on that, or would they run their own full medical to see if I'm medically fit? Thanks, Sam.

Hey Everyone! I would really really appreciate any tips and or advice for my final interview coming up,eg what is the itinerary of the interview, is it...tell me a bit about yourself, then get stuck into what if scenarios? How intense is it, Im assuming I am in for a hard time? If anyone who has recently done this, can give me the jist of it, and what to aim for with regards to research and what to study, I would REALLY appreciate it! As much as I was nervous for my initial, I know from the advice from my interviewers that the final interview is something to be scared of!! :smiley_vomit: Cheers peeps. :smiley_notworthy:

well folks, that's it. Make or break as far as I m concern.Just finished my a/c with Central Scotland and let me tell you that was fun! Not the likes of having to write as formula one speed but to think at formula one speed too!On overal I think its really testing you. Started at 9.40am and finished at 2.50pm. I can't honestly say how well or bad I did it. Now we have to wait for a week before moving on to panel interview. phil

Hi Guys, I'm a newbie to this site... I applied to Cambridgeshire back in 2006 and got invited to an A/C in May 2007. However I had to turn the opportunity down due to unfortunate family circumstances at the time. Has anyone had to do this, and if so is this looked upon as a bad thing? The reason I ask is I am going to be reapplying next month... Thanks!

Hi all, I have got my fitness test date through for the TVP and was just wondering if anyone had an idea of what the average timescale between fitness test and starting date is???

Thanks for any help and advice you can give.
