[@mykolasenyk1]

@@xclonejager6959Could you tell me more about it?

[@him050]

Join as a squaddie and then commission from staff sergeant or WO2. You go straight to captain in that instance

[@1ShotPolo]

Try go to AFC Harrogate at 16 that's what I did and they have maths class sizes there of about 10 people so you come out w atlesst level 2 maths and english

[@themindsetvideos]

Hey there great video 👍. I don't know if you already have but could you do an RAF Officer video? (I don't mean pilots just the usual officer roles) Much appreciated thanks...

[@Howmuchthough]

Ahhh can certainly do this 😄

[@sanjidurrahmanshanto1700]

How do I join the British Army as a second Lieutenant as a Commonwealth citizen?

[@voltagek-ui4cl]

Same question

[@Theaveragemememaker]

Check the British army website

[@EwanHtn]

It is the same process. When you fill out the nationality forms, it will ask you where you are from. I recently attended the AOSB (Army Officer Selection Board) in Westbury, and there were some international applicants from all around the commonwealth (including Indonesia, who had done the same process as me to get to where we were.
I hope this helps.

[@MohammedKhan-rq1pk]

⁠@@EwanHtnafter completing the medical forms how long do u have to wait till they call you to AOSB??

[@EwanHtn]

@DarkHorse-wd9cb All information will be on the British Army website. If by any chance it is not on there, you can email/ phone the army recruiters directly.

[@davebamba8242]

[@rodeorex2846]

Do they have interviews as a part of selection procedure

[@ellyrion8173]

Absolutely - lots of them

What are the requirement for scottish system i dont understand gcses that weell

[@Marshal_Windsor]

Essentially A Levels are the equivalent of a Higher, if you’ve got an Advanced Higher, you’re set, because that’s higher than any English schooling grade and technically counts as a college grade

[@cojuk7]

Paid too much

[@Magical-Melon]

Bro they lay down their lives for our freedom

[@xclonejager6959]

How to join as an officer?
Simple be a blue blood or have connections and be over 6f and have the correct accent
If you are non of the above don’t bother they won’t take you.
It still blue boys club no matter what the ads say

[@Maverick-hf1pe]

I'm only 5ft 9, have no connections and have a Northern Irish accent, yet my application went through and I'll be going to AOSB after my medical assessment

[@him050]

That was still true even up to about ten years ago. However now it’s really not. I’m you’re none of what you mentioned then yes, you’re probably not going to make it past Major. But that’s all most people get to anyway.

[@hicksyRoyal]

NOTE! although you can get commissioned as an officer with good grades you will need a degree to get to captain or above. (Unless you serve as a squadie for like 20 years)

[@gingerLad]

No degree needed, anyone can get to Major in 12 years. LtCol doesnt technically need a degree, but there would be a question mark why you're too lazy/thick to grab a Work Based Distant Learning degree, paid for by MOD and usually buckers leave. As a dislexic 😢 , ive followe this closely. Scraped a degree at the 10 yr point

[@Dennis......]

Thought you needed a uni degree

[@Utlathram80]

Does a college degree work for them?
