looking at roles that require "maths". Is secondary Year8 Math + 2 University diplomas enough to apply for these roles?

Additional information

I went to school and University in South Africa and Finland. I have strong language (I speak 5 languages), history and politics backgrounds, but only basic (Secondary year 8 equivalent) maths. Will this be an issue when applying for Military Intelligence and Communications roles? I'm also considering a role in the Military Police? Thanks

Hi Thomas,

For the Intelligence Corps we require 5 GCSEs, including one in Maths and English. However, if you have a higher level, such a degree, in one of these subjects then this will supersede the GCSE. In certain cases we may also offer an education waiver, however this is given on a case by case basis.

If you have any further questions or problems, feel free to ask us!

I hope that helps,

Paul
