British Army Selection Guide on How to PASS get an A GRADE

[@JoBo431]

Thanks for the video, just got back with an A grade for infantry 👍

[@jackducker3259]

I’m going on the 18th is the maths and English hard bc I’m not good at them 2 but in doubt about them rest is fine I think

[@JoBo431]

The Maths and English are GCSE stuff so If you read through a few GCSE textbooks and do some practice papers I reckon you will be sound, good luck mate @@jackducker3259

Very nice video, my assessment centre will be in a month ish. I need to get 11.3 this video helped a lot cheers

Nice one mate love your videos so much. I can’t wait to get into the army my application is on hold I’m from Ghana

[@CombatReadyHQ]

Thank you mate, what would you like to see Jeff? And hopefully application gets moving again soon. Best of luck

Can u make it bro?

[@DanielAdusei9]

Did u make it my Ghana guy?

[@JakeBWFC]

I went AC glencorse. We didnt even get told our grades? Ah, well. Few lads had really long hair and long beards etc. Started with 32 only 10 on the coach home.

[@summermc2965]

Wth? They’re supposed to discuss your grades during the interview 😭 ah well 🤦🏽‍♀️ I also have my assessment at Glencorse coming up in less than two weeks. How did you find the TST test and the bleep test, if you don’t mind me asking?

[@alpine1609]

Hi m8, I'm old enough to apply for afc Harrogate on 19th February, can't wait, was at the open day few weeks ago and loved it, when I go to the assessment centre does everything still apply to me as it does for the lads going to the full time roles

[@CombatReadyHQ]

Nice one mate and yes you will be looked at the same as them but will just have different physical standards to meet depending on what role you are going for

[@alpine1609]

Got my assessment centre this tuesday!

Nice one mate, best of luck. Give it your all

[@bennyg4101]

I got an A Grade, this helped a lot. Thankyou

[@CroydonLion]

What did you get on the bleep test? And do you have any tips as a whole? I’ve got mine at Pirbright this week!

[@bennyg4101]

@@CroydonLion I got 9.1 but I’m going for Air Corps so I only needed 5.8. And my tips are literally, be respectful, always address them staff and not mate etc. Make an effort to be involved and show willingness etc. Just make the best possible effort. Oh and make sure you do research on Phase 1 training. And also your phase 2 (Trade training) as they will ask you this in your interview. Also the army’s Values and standards make sure you know them before you go to assessment. Best of luck. Let me know how you got on. Need anymore advice I’m here buddy

[@CroydonLion]

@@bennyg4101 wow, thank you so much for taking the time to provide the info. Really appreciate you. Really nervous because I’ve wanted this for years! Only one other question if possible, what are the team exercises like? Any tips? Thanks again mate

[@bennyg4101]

@@CroydonLion so I went to Lichfield for my AC, the team exercises we did there was sort of like an obstacle course and you had to have team work so overcome it without touching the floor, it’s hard to explain. But when you do it make sure you get involved and put your point across to your team, make sure you’re heard and that you also listen to people, the assessor will mark you on the way you communicate and how much of a team player you are

[@bennyg4101]

I’ve been in the Royal Air Force previously so I had a head start on knowledge of the Armed forces and team skills etc

[@jackpilkington6770]

Solid video, assessment centre next week. Looking to smash it, won’t forget to smile 👍

[@CombatReadyHQ]

Thanks for the feedback mate and nice one, best of luck on it and yes keep smiling. Keep me updated with how you get on

[@ObengKelvinAnti]

Bro what is the BMI to pass

[@owengavin3931]

Thanks mate I’m looking at Royal Artillery myself. At my initial interview they told me to aim higher as I’ve got the qualities, not sure what to do as I don’t want to look like I’m not ambitious but I really want royal artillery as my choice

[@CombatReadyHQ]

Hey mate I’ve done plenty of videos on this saying choose the role that best suits you and what you want to do not what they say or think is good just because it’s a particular trade, I was FST within royal artillery which is very technical and a brilliant job working in observation posts and on the frontline with infantry. Do what you want to do and think you will enjoy and have a successful career in

@@CombatReadyHQ I’ll give it a watch thank you!

[@christophertom5529]

Any tips for us commwealths from Fiji coming in on the 22-23 December for assessment... I know it will be winter when we do get there and we're not used to the cold 😅

[@CombatReadyHQ]

Wrap up warm, make sure you warm up correctly before all assessments. Best of luck and keep me updated with how you get on

[@ObengKelvinAnti]

Bro am going for my assessment but am worried about my weight?

[@spamgwin4166]

I’ve just had a nuss procedure and i don’t wanna go back to labouring. I’m planning on applying in roughly 5-6 months. It’s gonna be a huge disadvantage but I can’t wait longer or it’s working minimum wage for me.

[@CombatReadyHQ]

Go for it mate

[@terenceballands3321]

Absolutely correct 👍

[@CombatReadyHQ]

Thanks mate

[@SydneyGayleJR7]

Hello Craig, when they send you the Army cognitive test (screener) in your portal, is it okay if you take like a week before doing it because i'm practicing some online ones first so i can hopefully get the best grade for when i do the screener God Willing , which they sent into my Army portal for me to do a couple days ago... i know that the Army cognitive test (verifier) is the most important one though but i still want to do great on the screener as well 🙏🏼

[@freyadodd3838]

Start my basic training on Sunday, got an A grade just wondering what the maximum score you could get was?

[@kojoafriyie5493]

Am from the commonwealth country. What does the referral bounty recruitment scheme means when someone want to apply?

[@SG-pc9kk]

Can girls non Uk residents apply or go for training ? If yes then is there any she requirements?

[@SydneyGayleJR7]

Yes, if you are from a Nation that is a part of the Commonwealth.

[@fredrickowusu1570]

After my interview they gave me a certificate but I got grade B so what does it mean

[@CombatReadyHQ]

B grade is good and means you have done very well overall, shows the instructors at training how you’ve done

[@oliverpedder-platt9629]

I got an A grade pass 2 weeks ago. If you have any questions. Just comment and I’ll see if I can help

I have mine tomorrow! What were the team exercises like?

Yes you can, since India is apart of the Commonwealth

You British soldiers should have thought of this in the American war of indepedence. Then you’d still have your 13 American British colonies in the British union.
