What about #52? I have it down as Tattoo/Hair clip. Almost certainly a double answer. Unfortunately I got it completely wrong because I eliminated both double answers figuring they canceled each other out.

i am trying to remember which question was the explosive dye pack at the bank, i assure you that will most likely be a double answer. Both bomb squad and crime scene are supposed to be notified. not one or the other.

#4 was the ECB question in which the calendar had the double 8's, I know you can still get the correct answer however the question was based on the calendar and the calendar was incorrect therefore the question should be tossed....that calendar did not reflect a US calendar...its a long shot but I had to try...

#7 was a summons question. which one was prepared improperly #18 poss double...strip search of a prisoner #21 poss double....meds question about umos preparing the med treat form #26 aided question #47 par qual veh ques
Question 18 (strip search) I got wrong but when I went to the protest, I realized they beat me. I'll keep it up top anyway so we can keep track of it but it's not a double answer.
21 also was also tricky but DCAS worded it correctly (got that wrong also). No double answer for that either.
-- Edited by Jimmy McNulty IV on Saturday 5th of May 2012 08:47:18 PM
It was either question 1 or 2. To send a cop to a detail with a rmp equipped with an mdt. There were 2 rmps available with mdts. One was broken and the other mdt wasnt. In the in basket packet the memo said to use an rmp equipped with an mdt. It didnt say working mdt. Thats like the p.g. saying be equipped with a WORKING watch. They left that word out which makes it a double answer technically...

One of the Po williamson answer choices either 10 or 13 maybe both.
I think you gave him off in question 10, which worked out fine, and then he was supposed to be the answer in question 13, which I would guess make it a throw out.
question 47 was us as the LT giving a cd to a cop for rmp accident. and sending him to retraining, where in the patrol guide it clearly states this is a duty of the CO.
question 77 was LT again authorizing himself to do admin OT . I believe in this question it said there were an increase in rmp accidents. You needed to get a report ready for the XO. There answer was you stay and get the job done so the XO will be ready for the meeting.

It's been a while, but I think the cop notifies P/S, Bomb Squad, & ESU. Don't remember CSU being a mandatory notification, I could be wrong....

Do not know #7, but hearing it might be a throw out.
I heard the same. I didn't post anything, because I had no idea what question it was and hadn't heard anyone speaking about it. Throw outs I heard were 7, 23, 40, 63, with 89 and 100 as doubles. That was as of two weeks ago when the review panel was supposedly still in session and I haven't heard about any others since then. At that point I was told they were arguing 12 more questions.

The guy that told me isn't someone I can just pick up the phone and call, so I don't know if I can get more info; I just run in to him at 1PP occasionally.
Not sure if 10 would be thrown out. At that point in the in-basket, there was nothing wrong with giving him the day. If the in-basket is a "living thing," where one answer sequentially effects the next, 13 would be thrown out since it had no correct answer, and 10 would be correct.

Here are a few possibles. I know some were already covered above. I don't have any sources and I'm not stating that these are going to be throw outs or double answers. Just a few of the questions I protested.
Q3: One and six to send to detail. Double answer B/D? (Choice D had all RDO MOS at full duty status with 2 PO's van qualified.)
Q4: Mobilization point. Double answer C/D? (Choice C was public parking lot.)
Q6: Which voucher was correctly prepared. All were bad. Should be thrown out. A/B/C/D
Q15: Sergeant to pick for conditions spot. Double answer A/C? (Choice A - Sgt. Ahmad, experience in conditions and packet did not state when he is retiring.)
Q20: Complaints involving cellphones Should be thrown out. A/B/C/D (Question referred to Patrol Guide Procedure 207-52.PG only goes up to 207-33. They meant io #52)
Q22: Search on Tracks. Double answer B/D? Question was looking for false statement. (B & D were both false)
Q23: Temporary removal of firearms. Double answer B/C? (Lt excluded from being considered Ranking Officer for the purpose of this procedure.)
Q40: Vehicle accident on bridge. No correct answer. Should be thrown out. A/B/C/D
Q46: Confrontation situation. Double answer A/B? (Test writers changed pg wording from "whether on or off duty" to "when off duty". That does not make it an incorrect statement.)
Q47: Dept Vehicle accident. Duties of the X.O. Should be thrown out. A/B/C/D (Only possible correct answer is D - Don't find driver at fault and no further action needed.)

tensixone Question 18 (strip search) I got wrong but when I went to the protest, I realized they beat me. I'll keep it up top anyway so we can keep track of it but it's not a double answer.
21 also was also tricky but DCAS worded it correctly (got that wrong also). No double answer for that either.
-- Edited by Jimmy McNulty IV on Saturday 5th of May 2012 08:47:18 PM
question 21 was worded correctly, however they asked u what was the umos responsibility. it didnt ask u what step should b done 1st. therefore it should b a double answer. 2 steps were correct. should b a double
Q52: Cop in proper uniform. Double answer A/B? (A was tattoo, B was hair clip)
Q77: Prepare for traffic-stat while X.O. on vacation. Double answer C/D? (Giving out OT for admin work is no good)
Q87: Standard proper English (LOL). Double Answer C/D? (The answer key is D - "Since we have two Police Officers assigned to the post, it is their responsibility to monitor the condition." Police Officers should not be capitalized because they are common nouns in this sentence.)
Q89: E-Day for MOS with sick kid. Double answer B/C? (See step 2 of Patrol Guide procedure 203-03 COMPLIANCE WITH ORDERS)
Q90: Dealing with Sergeant who was passed over for a position. Double answer B/C or throw out? (Question based on personal opinion and managerial style)
Q100: Project for Mayor's Office. Double answer A/C? (Another question that deals with giving out OT for Admin work)
I have some specifics on questions 3, 4, 6, 15, 18, 20, 22, 23, 24, 25, 27, 28, 29, 31, 34, 37, 38, 39, 40, 45, 46, 47, 52, 56, 57, 60, 61, 64, 67, 69, 77, 83, 87, 89, 90, 93, 97, & 100 if anyone is looking for info.

It was so long ago I can't really remember, maybe your right. I just remember reading at the protest and being pissed that a missed a tiny aspect of the question.
Question had to deal with notification to acs. Dcas answer said its a cop who notifies, its a double answer because there's a step for d.o to do it as well. A/b should be as acceptable answers.
Question 45 was 10 year old with welts from mom's girl friend. You are a Lieutenant. Least correct action:
A) Tell cop to call IRT. (This case would be detective's job, not cop)
C) Tell cop to refer 61 to SVU.
So it should be a double answer with A/C both being correct?
If it is a double answer, it's not going to be A/C. NYG37 might be able to give you more info about choice B, but I can say with certainty that C is wrong.
@mes 18, what was the choice c? As I remember choice a was a cop makes notification, choice b was d.o. both are correct. I don't remember anything about svu in that question. there was a separate question who makes notification to what unit when a kid was a victim of the crime and the answer was Brooklyn child squad.
