Is anyone who passed the 2008 test going to take the 2009 test? And i don't mean take it so they can get the day off. Is anyone going to study and take the test. I know it's a stupid question but with the rumors going around with 2007 test about how some guys without time might get screwed I was just wondering.
i passed the 2008 test and i am going to take the 2009 test. it keeps you on your toes for theLts test when it comes around. And no, those with less time that passed the2007 test will not get screwed over.

Maybe you never worked in an a house on late tours when you can't get a night off, when you do you'll realize why you want to spend 60$ for a friday night off.
My point exactly,you don't know what an "A" house is, so it would'nt make sense to you. If you knew something you would know if you take the sgt exam and work midnights you get the fri night off to take the test.
I GOT A CALL THIS MORNING AND WHAT TITO PUT OUT DAYS AGO WAS TOLD TO ME THIS MORNING THE 2008 LIST WILL BE OUT IN SEPT!!!! THIS COULD CHANGE PEOPLE BUT SO FAR THIS IS THE LATEST!
Yeah September "makes sense" DCAS will release the list right at the cut off date to sign up for the 2009 exam because those who are worried or unsure about being on the 2008 list will pay the $60 to take the 2009 test just in case.
I GOT A CALL THIS MORNING AND WHAT TITO PUT OUT DAYS AGO WAS TOLD TO ME THIS MORNING THE 2008 LIST WILL BE OUT IN SEPT!!!! THIS COULD CHANGE PEOPLE BUT SO FAR THIS IS THE LATEST!
yeah Tito put the info out first right!!! now u come along and piggy back off his info like u always do when someone puts something out. LOL come on now. then u say the info can change just in case Tito is wrong! u r too funny cat,keep trying its funny to me!!!!
I got a 68 and of course I'm filing again. What choice do I have? I very well may not pick up the two points. I would think anyone on the cusp would do the same. Of course, they'll hold the list so we can pay the money, don't they always?!
I scored very well on the 08 exam and I will be taking the 09 exam. I'm not going to kill myself studying like I did for the 08 test but I think it would be a good safety net to have. I know that I can study for maybe 3 months @2 hours per day and still pass. My fear is getting caught up in some bull**** and getting suspended, modified etc. Its not like before when a list lasted 3-4 years, now its a year. So you get caught up in something, could be off duty out with your pals one of your drunk friends does something stupid or at work, one of the guys on your team is flaking the whole block etc, etc now you are **** out of luck because by the time you get cleared the list is finished. Anyone who has been jammed up before, and I have, knows that they are in no rush to get you back to full duty. Its a year, easy, and probably more. So it can't hurt to study on meal for an hour and before you go to bed for an hour, just to give yourself a little cushion should you get knocked on your ass.
i am just asking- do you really think that if you scored high on the 2008 test and you get modified- you just wont get promoted? and that leads me to my second question- if you do get modified what happens with your promotion?
I'm pretty sure that if your suspended, modified, have charges pending or even if your limited they will pass over you. I'm not 100% on what would happen say your modified you get passed over and the list expires. I think thats it for you and that list if it expires. If the list is not expired when you're modified assignment I think you're okay unless you get dismissal probation or somehing along those lines.
How's that being shaky? How much time do you have on the job? You dont have to be on too long to see how long it takes to be restored to full duty while modified. How people make bull**** allegations and the job runs with it. I know guys who have been in good shootings (meaning justified, grand jury cleared them) and they have been modified for months, and if you are modified and the list expires or whatever the case is, you will not be promoted period.
How many of you guys drive after having a few drinks? You may think your "good to go" but the rookie nassau cop looking to make a name for himself might not think so. Its not being shaky at all, its called covering your ass. Phil, you have not been in two shootings, stop.
why are you so afraid of getting jammed up? geez you're gonna be a shaky boss!
I was only stating that yes I was studying again godforbid something happens. If you passed and are ready to bet your childrens and wife's future on the fact that you make it through a year unscathed then good for you. I will be studying on meal for the next few months, good luck to ya.

hey nassau u shouldn't worry too much bout getting jammed up. if I were u I just would make sure not to drink period or do anything that would ruin my chances of getting made. play gta4. alot of good ol fun wit none of the pesky conseqences.
I hear you J, but **** happens out there. All I am saying is that we now have the benefit of taking a promotional exam while on a list for another, which wasn't always the case and if it was you knew you weren't getting promoted from your list. It doesn't hurt at all to take this test. I like to have options in life and this test just gives me another avenue should I need it. If guys don't want to study again thats fine, but don't hate on guys that do. Look at the numbers, there are people on this active list that haven't been promoted because of on or off duty issues, you best believe that they are wishing they took the 08 exam.
I think the final answer key will come out after the filling period for the 2009 test this way DCAS will get the ones with 69 and 68 to sign up and get that $60
Hey anyone get called off of the most recent Nassau test...The one last year...I got my grade, then two weeks later got a letter, went down did all my paper work, handed it in a month ago and havnt heard anything from an investigator....Just wondering if anyone who got the letter and did the paper work like me, heard from there investigator yet????
I got a 93.7...Got my grade, like a week later got a letter to go in...Went in on June 3, they finger printed us took our photos and gave us all this paper work to do..Said it had to be in by June 10th, and a investigator would get in contact with us...Still no call....I thought it was gonna be quick since they called so quick..Just wondering if anyone else who got called when i did heard from an investigator already...
Flu I think they called in 96 and up for one on one interviews so far, & those people are waiting for medical & stuff. From what I heard they will have small classes and for often (they will be overlapping academy classes).
