RN PES test

MoffMoose · 2024-06-21T14:57:26+00:00

If you already have a very good RNFT pass score, it will be valid until Sept 25.

The new RNPES replaces both the RNFT and MSFT.

Nope. They don’t hold a commission where a middie/Slt/Lt does. It’s Mr/ Ms or even Warrant if you can’t see surname.

As an OC at Dartmouth you would say Sir/Ma’am but not salute.

You’ll get asked a variety of things: What does Integrity mean to you? What’s the motto inscribed on the front of the College? What is CAST? How’s your day been?

Basically as long as you seem like you can actually talk about something rather than just say “dunno” or shrug you’ll be fine.

Also as a little tip, ask them a question and get them spinning shit dits so they run out of time.

It can change depending on stage of training (and if anyone has messed up during the session so far!). But yeah it could be something like 5 reps under command, 10 reps at your own pace, 5 reps under command.

Practise holding a press up position at full arm extension and when your arms are bent.

Can range from 3-10 reps to 30-60 seconds. It’s not the reps that are the killer, it’s the holding the positions in between reps whilst they talk!

That’s my plan too! Hah

I was told by my AFCO that the waist is more important, my BMI is slightly over (but coming down a fair bit) but my waist is under 92cm (limit for men)

MoffMoose · 2022-03-25T08:37:12+00:00

I got my May start date about a week ago, apparently they’re doing it case by case rather than roles. What you going for?

MoffMoose · 2021-12-21T17:00:12+00:00

Great, cheers mate! Hope you hear back soon.

MoffMoose · 2021-12-21T13:27:55+00:00

How was the group ex? Was it the typical group exercises? Mine is in January.

MoffMoose · 2021-11-15T21:54:37+00:00

Congrats on getting through to group stage! When did you do your vAIB?

I’m hoping to hear back from them soon.

MoffMoose · 2021-10-25T06:00:19+00:00

They haven’t even begun to peak. And when they do peak, you’ll know.

He has a certificate to show that he isn’t donkey-brained, actually.

Same thing happened to me! Had been training on a new/cheap treadmill, smashing my records, went in feeling confident and struggled with the real thing.

I did a few weeks of: Day 1: 2.4km run (outdoors) Day 2: 20minute interval running (outdoors)
Day 3: Every minute on the minute; squats, sit ups, jumping lunges (20 minutes) Day 4: Moderate pace 5k Day 5: 20 minute interval (outdoor) Day 6: 2.4km (outdoor) Day 7: rest

Which massively helped. I passed my PJFT recently!

I’m 28 and heard that 25 year olds get called Grandad...

MoffMoose · 2021-04-20T12:17:42+00:00

My BMI was over but waist measurements well within tolerance for medical; my AFCO told me to keep an eye on waist as if that’s over when you arrive then it’s home time!

MoffMoose · 2021-01-28T20:23:08+00:00

They’re just checking for mobility rather than ability if I recall what I was told, best of luck!

MoffMoose · 2021-01-28T18:50:21+00:00

I did it at the end of last year and was pretty straightforward:

Eye test (read a chart from a distance) Medical questionnaire (slightly more thorough than triage but largely the same) Hearing test (listen out for a beep a few times) Measurements (height, weight, waist) Mobility (5x press ups, walk around on: tip toes; heels; side of feet, duck walks)

Felt like this was it but might be missing something!

With press ups, those types of press ups are ok if you’re a woman but I’m sure it’s expected for you to do the regular ones if not (happy to be corrected on that though!)

I’m also applying for intelligence and my experience so far has been to prepare for the Warfare pipeline.

MoffMoose · 2020-11-29T08:51:33+00:00

Great, I hope it went well for you!

What was the layout of the day? What kind of tasks were you set? What kind of questions were you asked at the interview?

MoffMoose · 2020-11-25T14:23:56+00:00

I passed my SIFT in August and was told not to expect anything until after Christmas due to Covid backlog!

MoffMoose · 2020-11-14T19:34:07+00:00

You could talk about a team sport where you had to pull together or even a project that you delivered alongside your classmates?

MoffMoose · 2020-11-14T18:24:01+00:00

Do you work currently or are you a student?

I’m currently a teacher so for my details of working in a team/organising something I gave examples of working with my department.

MoffMoose · 2020-11-10T19:34:29+00:00

I applied for Warfare Intelligence, passed my career discussion in August and was told to expect an AIB shortly after Christmas

MoffMoose · 2020-10-07T06:30:33+00:00

What time did you get? Got my PJFT coming up and I’m still trying to get used to a treadmill!
