The aptitude test was pretty easy IMO. I qualified for every trade, but I still wanted infantry more than anything, so I chose that. The PT test was what I've been worried about, as I am not in great shape. We did the Step Test first. We did Level 5 for the first 3 minutes and Level 6 for the last 3 minutes. My heartrate was a borderline pass. Next we did the grip test, which I JUST passed with a 76. After that we did pushups. The guy running the test didn't even mention elbows. He just made sure we had hands under our shoulders and chest or chin touched the floor. My final score was 19, as a lot of mine didn't count for not going down low enough. Again, just passed.... Situps was my only strong point, I finished with 43.
I didn't have much time to prepare for the PT test, but I still managed to pull it off... The instructor said I'll have to improve my scores a lot over the next couple of months but I know I can do it.
We also had a rather interesting fellow doing the Aptitiude test with us today. We were all sitting in the waiting room after the test when one of the Corporals called him into an office. They called the rest of us into the testing room and told us we passed. We found out later this guy ONLY qualified to be a cook and had to change his trade. Fast forward a few hours, we're now all in the waiting room again after the PT test. Everyone is being called into an office one by one before we go home. The Corporal comes out and calls this guys name... but he's not there. "Where's *****? I saw him here a minute ago..." We all say we haven't seen him. The Corporal walks around the Recruiting Centre looking for him. This guy shows up a few minutes later holding McDonalds in his hands and says "I was hungry, I just couldn't wait..." He sits down and starts eating fries, we inform him that the Corporal is looking for him and he goes off to find him. The Corporal walks in and tells the guy to follow him. But wait... Now he has LOST the sheet that we had to fill out with our MOC and Unit. I don't know if he ever found it, but he had his meeting and left... It was mildly amusing.
Anyway, that's my story. I know, its ANOTHER PT/Aptitude thread, but I'm happy right now. ;D
