I wonder if this small class means these sgts are goin to the WTC detail.
I should be in this class. Don't really want to work in manhattan...

Of course not. Just dont want to work in manhattan. especially since Lirr doesn't go anywhere near WTC. Seems like a strong possibility that a small sgt class would be destined for WTC w/ the recent orders for all the cops getting transferred there.

I thought the same thing but why would they put brand new sgt in a new command without any experience? My thinking is rookie sgts with less than a year on will be grabbed for the wtc command and this class will be filling those spots. Just my thinking but this is the nypd so anything is possible.

Experience has no bearing IMO. The job promote cops that have been in impact for 5 years with no patrol/sector experience. Plus what supervisor experience do you need with the WTC detail?

Sgts are promoted based on a "ratio to cops" on the job (1600 fresh recruits running around the academy right now) lts and capts based on a static number needed which never changes based on cop population size

Can anyone in BMOC saywhen the official graduation ceremony is or was?
mike said
Jul 20, 2011
Graduation for the current bmoc is august 2nd...a Tuesday...
queensloser said
Jul 20, 2011
reason why its a low number is because there gonna have a LTS class, A Capts class and now a sgt class going on at the same time. With a full building there is no room
brat4914 said
Jul 21, 2011
There is PLENTY of room.........trust me........8th floor has TWO large rooms (sgts & lts) and captains are given also on the 8th, but on the other side of the building........and the 1600 "kids" are a few floors below.........space is NOT the reason (i dont know what the reason IS, but space isn't it)

Sector B said
Jul 22, 2011
I heard the instructor tell the SBA guest speaker today that they would need him again next month because there will be another class in the 40's going in.......good news and good luck, and to you in the back, only 3 questions a day!!!

Every class has that guy who wants to ask insane questions when the instructor says "any more questions before we wrap it up for the day?" argh!

Hahaha. Don't forget. These are the same ppl u sat with during the first day of the academy. Just in a different position.

So if there is an August class, the finest will come down on Wednesday i guess. Has anyone heard anything as of late?
btkx15 said

Finest could come weds or thurs. Lets hope nothing has changed.

bmoc sgt just said 41 for next monday
fodx said
Jul 25, 2011
Thats the confirmed number?? Hmmm. Im low 50's. Oh the anticipation!
20yrSentence said
Jul 27, 2011
assuming the rumors are true, what number do u guys think will be the cut off for the Lt eligibility....
Detox said
Jul 27, 2011
My guess would be somewhere around 600. The list is up to 449 with about 41 going in August bringing the total to 490 (not counting any skip overs), so if one or two classes go in before the exam of rough either 40-75 in each class that would bring the number up to 570 upwards to 640 not including any skip overs. I hope they do two large classes to get as many people as possible to be eligible for the exam but I who knows what the city has planned.
20yrSentence said
Jul 27, 2011
I'm in that boat of being eligible if they put a sept and oct class... Don't know if I want to spend the money and get the lieu's study material or just read the pg.

Jul 27, 2011
Just read the guide and go to both cram classes..i mite just go to the key crams to refresh my memory before i get called
20yrSentence said
Jul 27, 2011
That's sounds like a plan.... does anyone know if there's a big difference in the sgt and lieu material?
Haterinyou said
Jul 27, 2011
Guys I would dive in head first and hit it like you mean it! The benefits outweigh the 800 bucks you would be flushing down the toilet if you were not to get called on time.
I would say that if you are below 560 you must give it your all!
20yrSentence said
Jul 27, 2011
im in the low 6's thats why i feel in such a precarious position
Haterinyou said
Jul 27, 2011
20yrSentence I understand and would have to say it' gonna be a nail biter for ya but it will be what it will be and it is out of your hands.
Now matter how you look at it this job of ours does not define you and so I suggest you pay attention to what is within your control like your health. Grab this one life you've got by the balls and hang on for the ride!
I am rooting for you!

Im taking bets...lol
My guess is last name called will be 494----leaving the list up to 495.

I wonder what the reasoning behind only having a sgts class with about 40 people is... if they have the space...

I think alot from this class might be going to WTC detail. Thats why it's a smaller class. Just a guess though.

Jul 27, 2011
They just promoted exactly 41 lt.'s. Graduation on Tuesday. Maybe that's the reason. Finest came down yesterday.
Popo5 said
Jul 27, 2011
Shouldn't the finest be coming down today for a sgts aug 1 class?
20yrSentence said
Jul 27, 2011
today or tomorrow
fodx said
Jul 27, 2011
I hope its today. I need to know if Im in or not.
Hey guys one other question... Can you be in bmoc and be on LIMITED status?
jumble said
Jul 27, 2011
No. Sadly you can't get promoted on limited.
Thanks conditionsuck for ur opinion.... Maybe that's right. Hopefully they will go up to 494...
SKELLGEL said

NYG37 said
Jul 27, 2011
Yes you can get promoted while you are limited as long as your injury is not from a prolonged reason. You will be assigned to EMD.
fodx said
Jul 27, 2011
NYG37, are you positive? The reason I asked is I need shoulder surgery. I dont know whether to do it now or wait till AFTEr bmoc at my new command. Obviously Id go sick then instead of now.
whatever said
Jul 27, 2011
i was told today that the finest for the aug sgt class would come down tomorrow
jumble said
Jul 27, 2011
I hope nyg37 is right. However... Just to let you know... I am between 41-50 names away.. And I was out LOD... Where I need to have surgery in regards to that incident... And it was my Dist Surgeon who said that I needed to be put back full duty to get promoted... Just in case I got called...
I'm not saying nyg37 is wrong. My DS may have been wrong. But I just wanted to let you know...

Why thurs!?!? Guess I can wait 1 more day. Doesn't a thurs finest usually come earlier in the day?
NYG37 said

It all depends how long you will be limited. I know for fact that when I was in bmoc there was a couple of guys on limited status.
