THE REASON I THINK MATH SHOULD BE PROTESTED IS THAT IT IS A DUTY IRRELEVENT TO A LT. IT IS 2011 WE HAVE COMPUTERS AND CRIME ANALYSIS OFFICERS TO FIQURE OUT!!!! WHO DOES MATH MANUALLY ANYMORE? ALSO ANOTHER REASON I SUCK AT MATH

Same with all of the patrol guide questions. I don't need to know any of that sh1t, I have the pg on my iphone.
I got 3 out of 4 math questions wrong. Wtf! And i studied the formulas for months. I dont think they will be protestable though. Neither will the grammar questions. Imo
grammar questions were too straight forward to protest. it will make us look like fools
Really? how many of you chose the answer with "canceled" (one "L") as wrong? well guess what, canceled is spelled both ways...canceled and cancelled. I don't even know if the test writers realized that
I would bet that majority of the people that took the test and English is their second language got these questions wrong. Will they be thrown out , most likely not. Unfortunately, i only have one correct. Ofcourse, i'll definately will try to fight them, and will seek legal advice to see if anything can be done about this. As i see this biased towards people who's english as a second language.

I took English courses in college and feel half of the grammar questions were tricky enough for people with above education; I dont feel this was done to weed out any particular group . The end result ended up weeding particular groups by default but dont feel it was intentional. I usually dont have a problem with grammar but would not have a clue about how I did since I did not have enough time to finish the exam.
I hear a 63 gets you on the final list.
