Been 12 years since I went, assessment was just basic english/maths style tests, wasn't really hard. I can't really say much as it was so long ago since I did it. Basically on the day I did mine, did pysch, medical etc also.

All I can say is, once your in, treat it as a lifestyle, not a career, you will enjoy it so much more.

Good Luck.

Ah Artillery, should be right, too far from the action though :p

Just don't stress, as I said, the tests were simple way back then and from my understanding everything has got alot easier.

Back when i was in...yes you had to be really fit, otherwise it was a massive shock. Those days are well gone now...no longer can you be hit and punished harshly like the days of old.

I would suggest working on running and upper body...oh also make sure you like swimming...the swimming circuits are a bitch especially dodging vomit lol.
