supervisor from the academy said that this test was intended to weed out the weak for a less then 500 name test!! But didn't expect so many to fail looks like a 300 name list in the future. He's just going off of his experience and rumors.
I heard that too. Guess what I did? I called DCAS and spoke with Patricia who told me that "the tests haven't been graded yet so there is no way anyone really knows how many people have passed, the protest period is still ongoing and the tests won't be graded until after there is a final answer key, stop believing everything you hear; *click*". Hope that answers your question. I don't care who heard what; no one knows at this point how many passed. It's simply NOT POSSIBLE because the tests have not been marked! Read the back of your green sheet. "Mailed protests will be accepted for a period of 30 days following the PRS." The protest period is still ongoing. Stop listening to these idiots who "know someone who knows someone". You're going to hear all kinds of crap ranging from "oh the passing score is gonna be a 60" to "ohh only 400 passed they're throwing it out" to "ohh I just heard that all the failures get a free lollipop". I reject outright, that kind of speculative nonsense. People like that need a fcking life. Sit tight, wait for your score in the mail and then wait for your notification to report to BMOC, because inevitably that's what always happens. The test is scored, a list is generated, and people are promoted. Period.
We all know this already It said by his experience with past test. Thats all I'll listen to some one that has experience over anything!! We all know it's a waiting game.
Yeah...but the protest answer key pretty much gives you your worst possible score... it can only go up on throwouts and double answers...so it is POSSIBLE to know if you passed.
Still doesn't matter. I work in one of the commands posted and you're off by a significant number. This list if anything, will provide a very crude "minimum" number. It's grossly understated and when the actual list comes out you can expect a couple hundred more than whatever the top number this list winds up being. That's because not all cops talk to each other in a command. You have your special ops guys who live in their own world and then you have your patrol guys who kinda do their own thing. After that you have your staff cops aka the house mouses (Traffic safety, planning, youth etc etc). Each of those separate groups maintain their own clicks and there really is no way one can get an accurate command wide number unless each group is polled.
