I think Brat's tired of being used by us just for information. No one ever thinks about her. We're being selfish. Maybe we should bait her into this topic by just saying "hi brat" "how are you brat?" "How's life" etc. one she responds to one of those question, we'll throw in our usual harassing questions about "who/what/where/when" and Ofcourse "how many" etc.
You guys threw Ondeair out. He could have been of great help right now.
I'll just type what he wouldve said:
"Hey guys, my source says as of now they haven't confirmed a class. But there is a LT test next year. The DCAS exam test writing supervisory board committee have already begun writing the questions. I know a guy in it so its confirmed. If I hear any further ill let you know. Sorry guys."

The 30 questions that are for research will not be used. They are already chosen and DCAS can not just use them to replace an unfair question. The fact is the test given today was definitely another unfair test and from what I hear from many people very hard to finish with many not completing all 130 hoping they answered the ones that counted or enough to pass. Also people are saying it was not an easy test in general. Just what I'm hearing obviously from a bunch of people that took it. Not one person has told me yet that it was easy and I've spoken to at least ten people.

I feel real bad for the guys taking the sgts test today because soon as this test is over the trolls are gonna flock to the 2013 forum and terrorize these poor guys.First is gonna be "iab is watching" then its gonna be "cheating going on test will be thrown out" then its gonna be the jewish kid that observed the sabbath and wants the answers.i cant wait to read this shyt.
haha looking back to the stress of studying, taking the test, followed by the nonsense trolling of the list being cut, weeks of answer key comparing, the final answer key, the list # and then finally promotion...i can honestly say it was worth it but to go through all that once more for LT....not looking forward to it lol.
apparently today's exam had 30 additional "study" questions built in to the exam. probably a sign of what's to come for the LT.
This test was as straight-forward as the 2011... the extra 30 "research" questions are going to make appeals and potiential lawsuits for this new 2013 exam format

I don't see how they can get away with injecting an additional 30 questions into the exam that won't count, and then not at least CLEARLY marking them as research questions.
It's going to be EXTREMELY easy for someone to fail and then file a lawsuit claiming (and easily substantiating) that the 30 questions took time away from the other 100 that DID count.
I still don't understand how anyone in DCAS in their right mind thought that adding an extra 30 questions and keeping the SAME TIME LIMIT would be fair and wouldn't raise any issues!!
This is only my opinion but with all the throw out from the last captain and LT test my thought is there will be NO throw outs or double answers on this test. There are 30 extra questions to use as valid questions to score this exam. If they have issues with 20 questions they can just make them part of the 30 research questions then eliminate 10 additional questions. In the end I feel there will be 100 single answers on the official answer key.
Spartan I think your assumption that people who pass the test move quickly time wise is ridiculous.
I passed the 2011 test and will be in the next class. I finished with 15 mins left and spent that time once again making sure that the scantron was filled correctly.
Some test takers can be done in 3 hours or 6. There are so many variables

People have absolutely no idea what they are talking about.. They will put everyone with a 70 on the list and throw out any questions that are protested with cause and merit. Stop trolling. The 2013 exam will play out like every other exam. If you needed all 6 hours to take the test it's because you either can't read or didn't study. I passed the 11 exam with 2 hours to spare. Everyone who passed I think passed with time to spare. You read the question an you either know the answer or you don't. If you spent 10 minutes on 1 question it's because you didn't study and sweated trying to guess the question...
Now let's get back to this exam. The 2013 exam has it's own forum. And stop trolling. Trolls!!!!
A PO who was held over is getting promoted to Sgt. with the rest of the Sgt's from the previous BMOC. He was told there will be a class in November. If for whatever reason the November class is canceled he will be assigned to 1PP until December. Don't know the amount going in.
