Hi folks. Im new to this but I have just finished been through my assessment day for the PCSO role. This is something ive always wanted to do and the waiting for my results is killing me. Anyway I just wanted to ask how many people fail the assessment day? I feel it went quite well but as with all these things I wont know until I get an answer. I know the pass mark is around 50%??
Im seriously nervous and im hoping and praying ive done enough. Fingers crossed

Not yet matey. They said this week. Im hoping that as I havent heard yet, no news is good news.
Falkor, whats the pass rate like? I know the pass mark is 50% but of the people who get to interview how many pass it? Like I said I really want this and as the days go by im getting more and more nervous.

Well I had a phone call yesterday. I did it. I passed the interview with flying colours apparently. Ive been given a start date for training in January. I am so happy it all feels like a daydream.

Well done Smiffy - all that waiting was worth it - now you can enjoy Christmas even more knowing that you have an adventure waiting for you in January, how long is the training ? 4 or 5 weeks?

congratulations!!
