PRNC 17/09/18(MOD CALEDONIA)

[Balwearie101]

Hey guys

Anyone else got a PRNC booked in Rosyth for the 17th of September as well?

Has anyone got any tips for the PRNC too? I’ve done a PRMC(Royal Marines) a few years ago, failed on the endurance course due to injury, but other than that one unlucky moment of slipping on a rock with two 40kg Jerry cans and snapping my hamstring, I did alright. I’m just wondering if anyone can walk me through a step-by-step of the 4 days.

I’m aware there is a 2.4km run, a gym and swim test, but the website also states that there is a 4km squad run. Anything else I need to be aware of?

Any more information and tips will be much appreciated!

There's plenty of past posts about the prnc in Caledonia bud, just have a quick search... They'll all be relevant still, not much changes

Hey, can I ask how you for your date for the prnc? My recruiter has been telling me doesn't know and he doesn't know any dates. I've been waiting since April. Can I ask what branch you're joining and how long you had to wait for a date?
Thanks, much appreciated

Hi Megan,

My AFCO phoned me. I’m going in as a MW(Mine warfare Specialist).

The intake for MW is apparently in high demand at the moment, which is why I think my process is going faster than most.

Just keep at your AFCO and they’ll let you know as soon as.

Can I ask what branch is your choice?

All the best!

I'm joining as a accelerated apprentice marine engineer on the surface fleet. I think it is over subscribed but it's just disappointing how they are telling me they don't anything. Apparently they have no idea when the intake for basic training and the prnc is.

Yeah doesn’t sound like the most ideal situation. Just remember though, it’ll be a very popular job choice and you’ve just got to be patient. All the waiting about will be worth it in the end.

I'd get onto your afco, my careers advisor knew all the intake dates for like a year in advance and what exactly was booked up... And that's as an etme as well but not the accelerated apprenticeship.

I thought they'd be like yours where they would know the dates. I don't believe they are clueless and have no idea. But they have kept telling me the same things since April. That they don't know yet and that I should wait. I had an extra interview last month and I was told then that the basic training intake that all the afcos are working towards is 4Nov. But apparently my advisor didn't know anything about this. I'm not sure how long it can keep waiting for
