Confidence Is Key - By: A. J. Oliver, 22 May 2008 
This book was excellentin preparing me & helping me pass the PIRT.
It gave me the cofidence I needed on the day & I would reccommend it to anyone thinking about applying for the police force.
Go for it!
Lacks any real depth - By: Pariss, 09 Jul 2007 
Firstly, the book is good for the practice maths & verbal reasoning tests & helping you with your application form.
However, the book seems to lack any real help where you need it most. It seems to describe the processin detail but offer little helpin the way of preparing you for the tests. For most people, the role plays & interview stages are the real worry of the Assesment Centre, there seemed to be little information of value on these stages.
As pointed out already, it is out of date. The book will teach you about writing a letter for the Assesment Centre which is no longer a requirement. In this sense, your on your own for the writen section of the Assesment Centre.
At the end of the day, the price of this book isn't going to put much of a dentin your wallet, & it does help to some extent.... but to me it didn't offer the kind of help other reviewers found it to be.
The most important informationin this book is given to you, for free, prior to the Assesment Centre (should you pass the application form).
I'd advise others to buy it, but don't expect too much from it.
Worth every penny - By: Happy lady, 28 Dec 2006 
I have just been accepted into Cheshire Police & this book played a large partin my application. I do believe that this book is the reason I passed my assessment centre. After reading the book I felt quietly confident going into my assessment centre & would have been a nervous wreck otherwise. I would advise anyone thinking of joining the police or alreadyin the process of applying to buy this book as it is a great help.
so helpful - By: Ms. C. L. Brown, 14 Jul 2006 Just completed my a/c day for hants- this book is a bible when it comes to gathering knowledge of what to expext & practice questions
Absolutely invaluable - By: , 06 Dec 2005 This book became absolutely invaluable to me as I was going through the recruitment process to join the Police. It gives you pointers on what to/what not to include on your application, practice questions for the pyschometric tests & good advice on what to do through the assessment centre. It helped me to get through the stages & I would recommend it to any potential new recruit.
