How is everyone feeling about the test?

That is one of my favorite episodes of the twilight zone "A pitch for the angels"

I haven't studied in two months. I think I'm going to ace it!

Too much info to know..... Very draining. Don't know if I'll try again after this 1

Way too much stuff. Pass or fail, will be the last test I take.

Especially for 6 months of study time

Last test for me also... Not worth the stress

Physically exhausted and burnt out. Waaaay too much material. I was trying to explain to my best friend who is a sergeant. The difference between this test and the others is that they can ask 10+ admin guide, or have a lot of math, judgement, and even throw 6-7 CIMS. There's no method to the madness.

You can literally waste tens of hours on some sections and get 1 question. The practice questions are so tricky and tough it discourages me. 2 more weeks until freedom. Good luck to everyone else who is in the trenches

I received my admissions card today and it was a reminder that we're almost there. Good luck to all and see you at Lane.

Let's get in the cage already. Leaping Lanny Poffo is ready.

There are entirely too many dates, numbers, measurements, time frames, and 49 breakdowns. If they throw a bunch of questions involving those things I have no chance, I feel I am at the mercy of the exam writers to come up with a relevant and fair exam. Also in the admin guide there are units in it I don't ever remember reading about in the PG and sound made up.

I feel as ready as I was for the 2011 Lt exam, but I don't think anyone can say they were well prepared for that debacle.

I thought that '06 rewrite was a fair exam. Lot of groundballs but a few tough ones here and there. I think if you did well on that one you'll be fine in a week

Yeah if you have been putting in the time then u shouldve found the 2006 rewrite to be fair and what we should hope our test is like....a lot of groundballs and a couple of challenging, but fair questions for the people who have put the time in. I'm not sure if im gng to do the 2010 rewrite though....just spend the rest of the time pounding out these procedures and hopefully not walk out of the test knowing i had to guess about 50 questions like the 2011 lieutenant crap

Hope you are right stiggityone. Just want a fair exam, we only had like 5 months to prepare. Anyway, I did well enough on the 2006 rewrite, so we will see.
