If you think it's a run, you're in for a shock! ,
It's the battle PT. Also known as the 'skirmish'.

I’ve tried to do a lot of research into what to expect from the PGSC but I’ve not actually heard of this any chance you could give me an insight?

Hi

Apart from the fact that the Skirmish is no longer part of the PGSC (and there's no longer a bell!) then the info isn't far wrong...

Have a look here, choose the Regt Gunner role from the drop down list first and the details of the current PGSC will be listed.

Hi Adam thank you for that, while I’ve got someone that knows what they’re talking about, on my invite to the PGSC on my dashboard it says it’s a 3 day course but on the link you attached it says 4 days, do you know which it is? Thanks a lot

Hi

The PGSC info should be correct. It may not be taking into account the day getting there though. But it is changing again in a few months time too, but not until after your course date, so don't worry.
The info you're sent has come from the Regt so it will be accurate to what you'll face on the course.

Kind regards

So as I have exams I had to push my prtc and basic training date back a bit I have prtc on the 12 June and start basic on the 26th , other lads who did the same course as me have prtc at the end if this month and basic soon after. You may be on the same prtc and basic as me if yours is in may
Hope this helps

(Prtc 2 days at Halton to do the service fitness test and other assesments)
