Royal navy initial training

I have read the RN website and chats about the navy but all seem long ago, all opinions of the navy are very varied and some which put me off but I feel it would be a great experience. 😂However to the questions, what are the interview stages like are they challenging cos they are not my strong suit, also how varied is the age groups in the initial training cos I wouldn't like to be the only person in there about my age. Also what's the time you wake up on a morning?
Thx

1. However to the questions, what are the interview stages like are they challenging cos they are not my strong suit,

2. how varied is the age groups in the initial training cos I wouldn't like to be the only person in there about my age.

3. what's the time you wake up on a morning?

1. Yes, challenging. Obviously. They're selecting you for service in the armed forces. They're going to test you. But they're also not going to try to catch you out. As long as you prepare, you'll be well equipped.

2. There will be a mix, but most recruits are predominantly at the younger end of the scale, 17-22.

3. During training it will be early and it will vary.
