There's probably a lot of people that took this test that dont go on this forum and have no idea their list # changed. For those who found out, I wonder who got hit the hardest. Any guys and gals whose list # changed dramatically in the + or - feel free to post. Im curious as to how much of a difference this really made. I thankfully only moved backwards 3 names but I see posts that some people moved forward 50 names, did the same possibly happen to some in the other direction?
I just called to check and found out that my list number hadn't changed. I'm in the mid 300's so it would probably affect those further down the list past this point...
Im in the mid 400's and moved 3 names backwards. It seems it's around there that effect takes place and gets progressively more drastic. I know 2 guys in the mid 200's that werent effected
I believe it will affect the people who got the points more than those who didn't. For example, say a guy with an 82 now has .5 or 1 point higher, that guy will probably jump 70 names or so but everyone ahead of him will only go back one number. So this is sort of a win/win, I don't think the majority had their points missing (mine were added as well as many of my friends, only one guy had them missing, hopefully this helps him). The ones that were missing the points will now possibly jump a class and everyone else will only go down a few names at worst.
No one can get upset, If you were moved a couple of names back, just know that you weren't supposed to be where you originally were anyway. Also Im a big believer in everything happens for a reason. Everyone deserved the points that they earned regardless of if it was just for running around in a circle. Congrats to the guys who moved up significantly.
How do u know if u went back? Your list number doesn't go back if you were 150 and someone skips u there become 149.1 for example
Im sure they usually do it that way, but a bunch of us called and got diffent numbers than were initially sent from dcas. So I would guess that means they are making another list
