For the record I had the physical aptitude tests on 19 of February. We were 9 candidates, I think, and we all passed. I dont think that we will manage to make a sum of 300 candidates by this way. I strictly believe that my theory could very easily get wrong, if at least 1 candidate tell us that he had an interview without passing first the physical aptitude tests. Until now I am the winner... ðŸ˜
P.S.: What happens doesn't make sense. They call us again for interviews of other levels. So what? In normal circumstances they would call us to visit Warsaw 2 or 3 times? We were there. Why not pass from all the levels at the same time? And dont tell me that the 3 independent level selection comittees dont have at least some kind of communication. Some candidates were so lucky to have 2 level interviews at the same Day in Warsaw? I guess not.
I believe that there was a first round of shortlisting and now they are doing it again taking in mind all available options that passed the physical aptitude tests.

You are absolutely right. But everyone in this forum came for a reason. To find some answers. Otherwise we should just wait without interacting with the others. There is a universal lockdown. We must pass our time at home somehow... 😠Anyway. Good luck to everyone. I will stop the guessing project from my side.

Hello again guys! Thank you all for sharing info/thoughts.
I would like to ask a question to those who have been in Warsaw for the Physical Aptitude test, in order to be able to confirm something related to the Beep Test.
According to the exercise description (if I didn't get it wrong...) both legs of the candidate must cross the line before the beep, so, normally, again both legs must be behind the line as the candidate waits for the next beep.
I have been examined once in the Beep Test in Belgium, organised by EPSO, not long ago. For them, it was OK if just one leg crosses the line and, also, one leg behind the line while waiting for the next beep.
I believe that it would be useful to know, as this detail can play its role to the way a candidate should be prepared for this test.
Thank you in advance, guys

Do you think with the medical exams by the end of June they will start also the athletic exams?

Hi,
I took 2 interviews in the same day in Warsaw and 1 online interview just yesterday.
I did not questioned about the procedure's schedule but I believe the information your friend has given is probably correct, assuming a very optimistic point of view.
It is uncertain though, whether borders will open soon or not. It might be cause for further delays. Also, we should consider the scenario of having the so called "second waves" of coronavirus and, as result, more travelling restrictions.
