If you don’t pass your run at the assessment centre can you still go into basic training?

Harrison,

Unfortunately not.

You will get the option to go back and re-attempt it.

Your careers office will not send you unless you have sent them a passed run time.

How many tries do you get before it gets to the awkward situation of giving up?

Esi,

You will be supported to attempt as many times as you wish. You will not be sent to assessment centre until you have met the fitness criteria. Everything else you will do at AC will be either Medical, academic tests or speaking/teamwork. Apart from the medical which is out of anyone’s hands, the remainder you can prepare yourself for prior to attending.

Are you in the process yet?
