Do you get a minute break or anything after the bleep test? Or is it straight into press ups?

Hi,

We had 96 people on ours, filled 2 barrack blocks! The dates people had were:

26th February
12th March
26th March

You'll be fine. Again it's enjoyable and as soon as the fitness is done it's really all downhill.

I had a nice 70 minute rest after my bleep test, the joys of being in group 1 of 8. You would at minimum get a few minuted between each test.

In regards to the functioning skills exams, are they from the usual exam boards (Aqa, edexcel etc) or are they specifically for the RAF??

Liam are you on the PJRC next week?

I think it may have been edexcel.

Our PRTC this week were the first apparently. Lucky lucky! Does block 20 have communal or cubicled showers? Communal showers for 10 weeks is going to get tiresome.

Block 20. Pretty sure it's cubicles only BB10 seemed to be communal.

I got YDS boots but they said we'd get the new ones when we a start basic.

Just over 8 weeks to go.

Ideal, not that I don't mind communal it's just easier to get a proper wash in cubicles. Just over 7 weeks to go, 7 weeks on Wednesday to be exact. I've never wanted to do something so much in my whole life.
