    Have they gotten back to you yet? Passed my medical last Wednesday. They didn't give me any indication on how long it would be before I heard something from LM. Are there any other stages now or will the next email contain a course start date?

    Yes, they allow you to relocate. To give you an idea on how restrictive they are I've had to relocate about 120 miles, so not very restrictive.

    I had my interview in the offices at Bletchley station.. so I'm assuming you'll have yours at which ever station you've applied for. As for time.. it depends on your answers.. there was about 30 questions or maybe it felt like 30 haha I'm not really sure

    Well he did say he would get the results to LM today.. then it's how long they take to tell me. There was only two of us there today.. I think you could have 6 people there at once.

    If you go on parkopedia and put in WD17 2AE it gives you a list of car parks close by. The best one I can see is the avenue which is £5 for the day which is reasonable. Guys who have got their stage 2 for the Bletchley intake do you think we've missed the slots for November and will now be...

    Apologies.. I meant stage 4 of the application haha The assessments at the OPC must be fully booked for ages then as I still haven't received a confirmed date for mine. I got a holiday approaching rapidly as well and would hate to have to cancel it. Good luck anyway mate!
