2013 Sgt test had 130 questions with 6 hours to complete the test.
2014 Capt test had 120 questions with 6:45 to complete the test.
IT IS SAFE TO ASSUME THAT THE APRIL 2015 LT TEST WILL HAVE THE RESEARCH QUESTIONS AS WELL.

Looks that way,.....as long as they don't give us a test like the last one (2011 Lt's exam) I'm all in for "research" questions.

Now that THE NOE has been published and read through and through does anyone know if they will put extra questions on the exam? Will there be any extra time for those questions?

You have to be mentally prepared for them to amend the NOE.

The admission ticket that we get 10 days before the exam, will state the amount of questions and the amount of time we have to complete the exam

NOE only will tell you that there will be research questions but it does not tell you how many. It will tell you how long they give you For your exam. And history pattern is expect research questions.... And expect for them to throw you off with old history exam questions .... LT exam is very competitive ...

I would be very surprised if there are not research questions. Be prepared for them.

lmao.

Yeah, I'd opine that additional questions are a guarantee. At least we know there will be extra time if it came down to it.

If the first test with Research questions had 130 questions in 6 hrs, and everyone bitched, then the next exam had fewer questions ( 120), with more time allotted (6:45), and no one really bitch, expect research questions ,,,how many, how long is allowed we won't know until they send admission cards.
