Q - Do I have to take a fitness -*test*-('")?
A - No, but you are expected to by physically fit. You will also need to be screened by our Occupational Health Department.

At the moment my BMI is worrying me because i am 26.** but i have heared different stories saying some forces take people from 18 - 25 and other forces take people from 18 - 30
Could anyone tell me if there is a national standard or what the kent standards are?
Thanks
Matt.
I'm also 26, but I wouldn't consider myself fat, unhealthy or unfit. Also, do not forget the BMI is not always accurate, as muscle tissue is heavier than fat.
oh yeh, i know it has limitations and i dont consider myself to be unfit, but i'll be starting going to the gym for my Duke of Edinburgh award so that'll help me loose a few pounds although i would like to get to below 25
