Absolutely. I couldn't go so I had to mail all of mine in. I protested 10. I'll be more than happy to email a copy of what I put together. I protested these 10:
24- The prisoner visit 29- Walk-in request for the PAR prep 45- 53 on the bridge 47- Dept. 53 50- Hypo cap at roll call 63- PINS 64- Missing 89- E-day 91- Crying PAA 100- OT for the CO's assignment
dont forget question 77 . It is also 77- OT for the CO's assignment. This question was about an increase in traffic accidents and the XO wanted you to review statistics for a presentation coming up. The answers again has you staying past your tour and authorizing your own OT.
Greetings to all. I am not sure if this will help, but I spent some time working on the protests, attended the DCAS protest session on 11/30/11 in Brooklyn, reviewed the test, spoke to M. Yanosek from (former) Fast Track, who was in protesting the test in the same room as me etc...You are absolutely right, there is power in numbers, especially when we are dealing with a poorly-written, subjective abomination, known as the 2011 Lt's test. Here are some "protest-hints" (hope they may help):
# 62 (for those who took the test 10/29/11) is a defective question: the stem of the question addresses an illegal eviction situation, it introduces 2 UMOS- yourself, who is a 2nd plt commander, and your driver-PO Martin. No other UMOS are mentioned in the question at all. All 4 answer choices, however, refer to an actor named "PO Omar". It is impossible to determine what action by this actor would be the best/ most correct one, since no information is provided regarding this actor- whether he is present at the scene, his duty status, assignment etc. Therefore, question # 62 has no correct answer.
# 63 is based on PG 215-08 I.O.16 and addresses the topic of when the Arrest Report Supplement needs to be prepared for PINS. It provides 4 choices (intoxicated 16 years old juvenile PINS, 16 years old juvenile PINS found in the house of prostitution, 16 years old juvenile PINS who is stranded, 16 years old PINS who is a runaway).The question asks when would the Arrest Report Supplement not be prepared. The question is written based on the test-writer's incorrect reading of this procedure. Arrest Report Supplement is prepared for PINS who is 16 or 17 years old, as per 215-08 I.O.16. No other "qualifiers" are provided or required for that. All 4 answer choices refer to a list that follows the statement in 215-08 I.O. 16 re: preparation of Arrest Report Supplement for PINS who are 16 or 17 y.o. (runaway juvenile, stranded juvenile, intoxicated juvenile, juvenile under 16 years of age found in a house of prostitution etc); however that list is not related to the 16 or 17 y.o. PINS. Its just a continuation of a list of situations when Juvenile Report needs to be prepared. Indeed, note re: preparing Arrest Report Supplement for 16 or 17 y.o. PINS follows step c). of that list. Furthermore, all 4 answer choices refer to a "16 years old juvenile'. According to P.G. 215-08 I.O.16 juvenile is over 7 but less then 16 years of age.therefore, question # 63hasno correct answer (or depending on one's reading of it, all 4 answer choices are equally correct.)
#89 is the much-disputed "E-day question". the answer proposed on the DCAS answer key puts the actor, "Lt Holland" in direct violation of P.G.203-03 point 2 that states "obey lawful orders and instructions of supervising officers". he "no excusals for the next 6 tours' Finest msg is a lawful order issued by someone who outranks the actor in the question, "Lt Holland", since such Finest msgs are usually sent by the authority of the Chief of Department. On the other hand, answer choice C (asking the UMOS requesting the e-day if another member of his family is available to provide care for his child), provides an option of handling the situation in a constructive manner; assisting the UMOS in finding other options to get care for his child, while not putting the actor in the stem of the question in violation of P.G.
#100 deals with a situation when the actor (administrative supervisor of some kind) has to get a highly important report prepared in an accurate and expeditious manner. the proposed answer choice involves this actor authorizing overtime. This answer is in direct violation of P.G.205-17 definition point a), that stated that non-ordered overtime is not authorized for administrative duties on any level. It is also in violation of point b). of definition -same procedure, that states that ordered overtime can only be authorized by PC, 1st Dep. Comm or Chief of Dept.
