Yeah but usually people post the info prior to the release of the tentative answer key. I'm interested in knowing if the list will break 100.

There is not much talk, and most people just committing to a 70-75 range. I myself will be surprised if the list reaches 100.

Unlike the sgt and lt exams.......the low passing # will be attributed to lack of motivation and not really wanting the rank.

It was a good exam.......just not many hit it as hard as they would for the sgts or lts.

From the looks of it Captain exams will be given every 2 years. So sad the rank has become what it has. Good luck Brat with your results.

Yes, it is unfortunate........Thanks

Capt Matterasso, daughter of Chief Matterasso made captain in 12 years. Another Captain is Captain Delgado of the Bronx. He probably made it in 10 years.

Not many people in the capt delgado fan club. He's about as well liked as raging case of herpes. Just sayin.

I don't know ANYBODY that likes him, or has anything good to say about him. Rumor has it he was an academy instructor who was kicked out for torturing the recruits. So I'm sure he has a few enemies on the job.

I knew him as Sgt Delgado in the academy.

FranknBeans · Senior Member

His running mate Perez is a captain too

bigfoot45 · Guru

yeah he just got made.... He's not as bad.

Matterassos' husband made it to captain in ten also, I believe. He was in the top of the list for lt and cpt exam

Shocking that A chief's daughter and her husband shot up the ranks. A quick look at thier prior assignments explains that meteoric rise. Nothing against them personally, but if the rest of us had someone putting us somewhere to study at work everytime there was a test then the playing field would be a little more even.

So true. A long with all the house mice.
