I was a fan of Rising Star before, but I must admit, yesterday brought me a whole new respect for them. Tony Raganella from Rising Star came into our protest session room dressed in business attire and introduced himself to all of us. He then went on to thoroughly explain DCAS's protest procedure and ho...

Approximate % of ppl who passed 10/29 out of 2500--200 passed That is 8% 10/30 and 11/15 out of 100--53 passed THATS over 50% HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE? NOT FAIR!!! is it possible to argue that next test all of us should have a choice when to take the exam.

Some key points in order to ensure your protest(s) is/are successful: Do not let DCAS reviewers do the work; i.e. cite the material, submit copies of PG procedures with highlights, and map out exactly where they should go in a clear, concise way. Prove that their proposed right answer is defecti...

After reviewing the test again, I've come to the conclusion that although a majority of the patrol guide questions were written very poorly, protesting them will be a very difficult task. The answers were pretty straight foward and could be found word for word in the patrol guide. Any thoughts of 1...

Anyone who goes to the protest tomorrow or in the next few days, and if you also answered 13 incorrect, take a look at writing up a protest to have it thrown out.

Is there a point to protest questions which could be throw-outs if you already have a passing score - i.e. the PINS question? The way I see it, I have nothing to gain if everyone gets the point.

Don't waste your time arguing with one another if a protest is valid or not. People who are writing their protests don't want to hear it. Also, if you think you have a grounds for protest but are unsure and don't want to waste time on a question if you're missing something obvious, ask someone. Might...

in order to organize for the protest we need to split into two groups those who had the answer key go down and those who had the answer key go across.
