Why has it taken some people over a year to join the infantry?
I just saw that someone got a grade B at selection and started basic almost a year after selection? I was told the other day if i get a high B or A ill be in by May, and i still have another interview and then Lichfield?

Your recruiter wasnt in the RLC and said you could get in faster if you were a driver, by any chance ?

Not to seem pathetic but whats RLC? and nope, i have good gcse grades and a high barb score and good results at pre-ADSC but I'm very curious here because one of the reasons [main word being one] im joining the infantry is because it is a much quicker process of joining.

The reason I asked was, that some recruiters are from certain capbadges and try to fill a quota and get you in their area of the Army.
Going to the Inf isnt nessacery the quickest entry point,
RLC = Royal Logistic Corps (Ammo Techs, Chefs, Posties, Drivers, Suppliers..few more)Quanti canicula ille in fenestra.

Fair enough, no harm intended, i can relate to the waiting side of things!
@Nato, not quite sure what you're getting at with highlighting that, an unfortunate choice of words perhaps, but it's not like i was suggesting do something different because you might get killed.
