Read the several thousand other threads on here about AOSB/AOSB Briefing, ignoring 90% of the comments as they are by people who have no clue what they are talking about?

Phys, and lots of it. Mental maths.
Lovely weather this bloody rain.

Remember to bear in mind you can get failed on immaturity, or told to wait another year.

I didn't do the winter aid planex before going because you're taught how to tackle it down there - if you do it you'll probably just get it wrong - I just saved it for when I can eventually do main board. Train to smash the bleep test, don't fail the phys because it can be the difference between passing and failing and there is no reason to fail it, don't be the guy who pulls out. Do lots of mental maths as said above. Keep up to date with current affairs obviously and be confident when you're there (not too confident though).

Physical training I am not too worried about. Originally Posted by MyNameIsnotDave

My main worry will be the mental maths then, So I will take it that I should ignore the winter aid planex then. Thank you.

Other than being fit and and having a good grasp of current affairs there's not too much us else you need to get hung up on. The Plan Ex you do at Briefing is very very basic and likewise any maths you get asked is straightforward and you can't really prepare for the leaderless command tasks.
It's been said to absolute death but just try to be yourself and show them that you're a confident, relaxed and sociable character and you should have no problems.
