I’ve got a practice test tommrow but I’m really worried as I’ve not practiced, I only had the final interview a week ago and they didn’t give us much notice on when the bleep test will be! Real ones on 9th may
When you put your application in you should have started training. They’re under no obligation to delay their recruitment because you haven’t trained. If you passed this time well done, if you didn’t then training starts now for next time.
Just a query on the 25% 9 shuttles rest ect What rest time would you recommend And is it just continuous shuttles or is it to a beep or certain pace? Thank you im taking a fitness test in about 4 weeks time :)
I took my first attempt at the bleep test yesterday, but unfortunately I missed the target by 45 seconds, which is the best app to use for the bleep test?
It's such a joke of a test I'm a reservist in the RAF and at 38 I HAVE to score level 9 on a 20m bleep I normally get around 9.5-10 as its a best effort test
Well yeh, you’re doing the full bleep test. This 5.4 is for standard recruits. It gets higher for those doing specialist roles such as riots and then the highest is firearms which I believe to be 9.6
@@memebo1922 Same, I nearly fell off my chair. I get that the average person on the street who does no exercise probably couldn't do it. But if you're applying for the police I'm gonna assume you have some base level of fitness. I'm not mega mega fit, but I can get to 11!
That is nonsense. Then I guess nobody should be a driver or have any kind of jobs because tests and interviews can naturally make people nervous. When he is talking about anxiety about the beep test he means the feeling of wondering if you are gonna pass or fail. Everybody and anybody can get that. It does not mean they are not qualified for the job.
@@maz2825 just being real, how some timid little man going to stop some gangster on the street? Sorry it hurts your feelings that gangsters are not nicer to be inclusive to snowflakes
@@idankcai7787 but police are not just there to fight criminals? They have lots of different roles like crowd patrol, catching up with businesses like schools and old folks homes and churches to make sure their security and such is all up to date and they have relevant information and advice. They are there to support people, help them out of bad situations, to keep them safe and make better decisions. They make sure people are driving safely and that they keep their car information and MOT up to date. They support people that have lost loved ones and pass on the news. What you are saying isn't reality. Reality is that people get nervous for tests. It is perfectly natural and as I said before... it does not mean they aren't qualified for the job. What is that timid police officer ended up being the most compassionate and therfor the best worker to have for supporting families and people that have lost loved ones? What if he or she was the best at driving and catching up with speeders? And who's to say that their confidence won't grow on the job? What you are saying is like saying that teachers shouldn't be teachers unless they know the answer to everything and have knowledge of the whole world. It is like saying an actor shouldn't be an actor because they have anxiety talking infront of crowds of people. Its like saying a person can't be a chef or a cook because they burnt the toast that one time. People have different anxieties and different ways of dealing with situations. What if the person that had anxiety over a physical test ended up having really good social skills and was able to talk the criminal into putting on the handcuffs themselves? You don't know. It doesn't make people snowflakes. It makes them NORMAL
