RE: LATE OCTOBER /NOVEMBER CLASS

machine · Senior Member

That would mean that 80 for late october/november would make more sense than 30-40 cause those new Sgts would b on place and ready to go, come on 80, come on Brat :)

HIGH600s · Senior Member

It makes sense...With 40 in November, it will bring us to 710. leaving 70 people on the list. So im assuming a large class in December of 80 to finish the list out.

Donnie Gloves · Senior Member

Hey, at least the December class will (probably) graduate on 12/23 and get both Christmas Eve and Christmas off (and get to be the newly promoted shakebox Sgt at the New Year's Eve detail)

Quagmire · Senior Member

Just got an update...40 going in on monday 0ctober 24th. Don't know how credible this is but if someone hears soomething similar please post.

Assuming this is true, tthe finest would come down on the 19th or 20th!

SKELLGEL · Veteran Member

Things are falling into place...If they put this class in on the 24th then theoretically the last class would go in November 21st and get promoted December 16th.

Donnie Gloves · Senior Member

Just spoke to a guy who is in this class and he said they didn't say anything about putting people in on the 24th. All they've told them so far is that there will most likely be 30-40 getting promoted upfront on the 28th. I thought they couldn't physically accommodate more than 80 people at a time, so if they put in those 40 people on Monday where will they fit them? Then again, they will need to have their uniforms inspected and probably some kind of insurance paperwork done so it might make sense... Then again, when has this job ever done things that make sense.

Ah, but they fit 40 people in a smaller classroom for that Phase 1 class while the last BMOC group was in, so that week early for 40 people makes sense to me now. The real question is if they put them in will they then put 80 on the following Monday because they can accommodate 120 people, or will they wait 4 weeks?

SKELLGEL · Veteran Member

Thats a tough avatar....LOL but yes, i think that a lot of the recruits will be at the range for the week and 40 isnt as many as you think..

Bx Bomber · Senior Member

80 is the most the instructors and LT say they can accommodate at one time. It's not about having a physical seat or classroom, they break u up into squads on alot of days with some doing computer training, some going for Tazer training, some going to Gold Street in Brooklyn, u have to do a day at task force for disorder control.
It's about scheduling all the different things and on some days everyone is just in class listening to all the guest speakers from like every division on the job.
They will not do a class of 120, sorry to burst your bubble.

Bx Bomber · Senior Member

And 80 is about the most they can fit in that classroom, so otherwise all the speakers who come in would have to give their long boring speeches/presentations to 2 seperate groups if you were in 2 seperate classrooms.

Donnie Gloves made a good point...They had a phase one in the same time as the September class of 80.

J-Rock · Member

I was at the phase 1 a few weeks ago and the only reason they got us in for it was because the sept bmoc was away from the academy at outside training. I'm in bmoc now and the last they told us was 30-40 oct 28th upfront.

Bx Bomber · Senior Member

They will NOT do a class bigger than 80 (the Lt in charge stated so when I went through. He actually said they don't even like doing them that large), I know it's just wishfull thinking on your part cause you wanna get made, but it won't happen. Good luck your time will come, it's just around the corner, the list is almost done.

They WILL not fit more than 80 in the SLC classroom. I'm in the class now and we are having our class on Friday in the auditorium because theSeptember class is returning for one day for their "end of field training/last day". Again, as others have posted, the Lt. told us that 30-40 will be promoted upfront on the 28th, SLC to follow.

Donnie Gloves · Senior Member

Yeah, I figured. A boy can dream, can't he?

HIGH600s · Senior Member

Whats up with the 37 passovers! That is a lot. no? Are they gonna get made or whats up with that?

SKELLGEL · Veteran Member

Can you get promoted on limited?

Nope. Knew a guy who was limited and had to beg the surgeon to put him back full duty so he could get promoted.

SKELLGEL · Veteran Member

Crap...Im back a full as of the 15th. You think they would make up the list for the next group by then?

HIGH600s · Senior Member

Just heard on 1010 wins that Bloomberg just ordered a hiring freeze city wide...Similar to the the one in 08-09.

What does that mean for us? What does that mean for the 06 Lt exam? What does that mean for the 11 sgt exam/11 lt exam?

Are they cancelling the 1600 new recruit class for January?

brat4914 · Guru

he says that crap all the time........it doesnt really pertain to the police

HIGH600s · Senior Member

Ive been around lomg enough to know that it doesnt pertain to us....but, It did slow the lists progress. It took 680 sgts 3 years to made despite a need for the rank.

HIGH600s · Senior Member

Also remember, as of 6 months ago the most junior patrol guy had 2 years on the job. They stopped hiring cops for about 2 years.
They were putting in clases of 100! the attrition rate and suspension/modification rate is double that anually.

How do you figure? Although the last Sgt exam was Feb 2009, the 1st group from that list didnt go into SLC till Nov 2010. This list moved very, very fast. It's just took over a year (I believe it was like 1 1/2 years) for them to establish it and start promoting off it.

its all out of our hands.............

i am sure they will kill the lt 2006 exam on april 2012 (its 4 year limit)

and as far as the sgt exam and lt exam of 2011..........well, that has more to do with how many pass...........then we can re-visit that question.

Kev12345 · Veteran Member

CAN SOMEONE CONFIRM THIS REVELATION?

Quagmire · Senior Member

I just asked someone in the current "SLC" and they said 40 for November.

Rediceten · Veteran Member

I can confirm what Phantom said. The Lt. said he hadn't heard anything about more Sgt's for November. He said 16 Captains and 29 Lts. to go in. Earlier this month he had told our group about the upfront promotion but it sounds now like things may have changed.......

IhatePG212207 · Veteran Member

That Blows!

HIGH600s · Senior Member

Im sending out a BRAT SIGNAL for an 85

brat4914 · Guru

LOL........as far as i know, 16 captains, 29 Lieutenants and what is still an undetermined amount of Sgts (not counting those already in bmoc) for Oct 28th.

I would say about a week before, the calls shall go out to those who will be in that "up-front" class.

Quagmire · Senior Member

I got the same info about the 29 LTs....as for captains, who cares...lol Hopefully the upfront thing is still good to go!

SKELLGEL · Veteran Member

So much for the upfront class...Next class in December.

SATCOM · Senior Member

I have not been in the loop for a while regarding promotions and rumors but I have had my doubts about this upfront thing. It just seems too involved.

brat4914 · Guru

and what leads you to believe it isnt going to happen????

SATCOM · Senior Member

I was talking to someone that has given me very accurate info with a very small margin of error and after 5 minutes of talking about the protests...I asked him and he said that they indeed have been actively trying to promote everyone before the recruit class graduates. He also said that the classes have been in place since June but upper management doesnt want to rock the boat with recent budget restraints as to seem wreckless. There can possibly be an upfront thing but it would involve a potential for criticism that upper management wants to avoid. Just my 2 cents. But for those that this will help, for your sake i wish they do put a class in.

SATCOM · Senior Member

My gut feeling is a November class of 40 promoted before thanksgiving. Lets just wait and see. Things change everyday

HIGH600s · Senior Member

So the momentum is lost!
