Hi, I was just wondering if there are any different fitness tests for officer entry and if there is a pre-entrance test?

Hi,
To be honest it's changed since I went through AOSB a few years ago. According to the website yes that's right (https://apply.army.mod.uk/how-to-join/can-i-join/fitness) but there's also the assault course that can be a bit cheeky - both a team one on the last morning and an individual one at some point throughout the week. A little tip for the assault course is to use the ammo tip to stand on if you're not very tall like me to get through the enclosed slide obstacle.
Good luck!
