Or #4, the diversity conundrum, carefully picking which questions get changed to maximize a diverse list...

That's very possible.

its funny....they pick these research questions....how easy would it be to use the research questions to increase or decrease a list. If everyone got number 1 right...and we need a smaller list...use number 1 as research! although...i think this idea got debunked for this test since the extremely low fail rate. Imagine if all the ops orders counted....wed have a 50 person list

This is 100% correct. If they wanted to manipulate the list size or "diversify" it they could have easily used the 20 research questions to do this.

In order to do that they would have to postpone protest session until everyone-military and religious-take the test then go thru protest session, tvb and final list. So far 10 month and we have nothing imagine how long would it take the other way around

Not really, they could just manipulate it based on the people who took the original test and the Sabbath test the day after. The few scammers that take it even later than that wouldn't affect it much.

why no vet letters? why expedite devil dogs pts? to me it indicates release of list within 2 week range....but no other vet letters is just troubeling...not for delay of list but for amt of throwouts

Bklyn net · Senior Member

exactly ! that's why I think no changes

papote170 · Senior Member

how many people was it that took the exam? wasn't it like appx 2,600 people... I just cant believe only one veteran passed the exam? seems weird to me !!

bigfoot45 · Guru

Based on recent events im thinking the list is out very soon (by the 17th) and that there are 1 or 0 changes. I honestly don't understand how that is possible but thats what it is looking like.

Hopefully it just means they will take care of vets after the list is released. Wishful thinking

Yes, the vets who passed will be added using fractional points.

Why would they verify after the list is released ? Absolutely no reason. If vets passed they would've got notified period . Let's face it. We're done

ondeeair2321 · Guru

Bigfoot, transit----guys there is no way that some of these vets who are on the cusp,border,line or whatever have u call it didn't pick up points. No way! Some of these 69 s will get over the hump. Me at 65---maybe not. But their will be changes!!!!!!!!!!!!! For the last time guys it will be some. How many??? God knows. But this guessing and rumors have mind raped everyone!!!!!! Guys. One guy goes down to add vet pts who passed means zilch!!!!!!! Nothing. Some of these vets on line will make it---even over capt vouche s dead body. There may be little tosses or many----but u guys are trying to guess the piggy bank ur about to dump into the TD bank change chute. Just lets wait till the 17th and see what's happening. They are going to verify BEFORE they establish a list. Some of these vets on the line will get the notice in snail mail. There is no telling what will happen but 208 out of 2721 is not going to fly. Not gonna happen. They crapped the bed with 241 and this one was 128 with an add on of 80. Just smack urself, get a hold of urself and think about it. Stop listening to some of this crap and relax------wait closer to the 17th.

ondeeair2321 · Guru

I got 1 and 106 right but we know these are tosses. And 45,54,78,86 or whatever else ****amamie questions that leave the city open ain't gonna stick. This capt insano really mind blasted all and I hope u guys know he reads this constantly for enjoyment. He has made logs on this site already a couple of times so he does in fact read it. Relax!!!

If true, what the **** are they waiting for ? They rushed to verify the doggie guy for a reason! To expedite . The list will be out any day now ..

sgt2be · Guru

Ondeair..if ur 100 percent confident in Feb 17...which I'm hearing more and more as a good possibility...if vet letters are not received this week...which I don't think any will...then ur theory of vet letters contradicts the 17th....this week should be week of verification if 17th is true

Flambino · Senior Member

Let's face it...WE'RE SCREWED!!!

ondeeair2321 · Guru

Sgt2be yes---this no one receiving the vet letters yet is odd. And I don't know what to think of it at all my friend. But from the solid source who told me about the request for 2/17 dcas can request more time!!! Which is absurd!!!!! But evidently it has happened time and time again over the years. So all we can do really is wait till it's closer to 17th. Think logical---some of these 69 s are making it over the hump maybe the rest of us are dead but 69 s have a big shot.

ondeeair2321 · Guru

Don't give insano the pleasure of ur suffering. That is his goal for all cops and bosses below the rank of captain. He enjoys nothing more then brining a little piece of hell to ur doorstep or testing desk and honestly----dcas might shoot this guys f**kery of an exam down with changes like bullet holes. The ptsd this exam has brought upon many is insane. Guys at work have literally lost their marbles over this exam and have outbursts of anger. Never seen anything like it, and I'm being serious. Guys have outburts when talking of this exam. I was at range and two guys were discussing this exam and one guy slammed the table ridiculously hard and was just like S**t. so everyone take a breath we may get good news from dcas.

Ondeeair, the problem is we are thinking logically based on all the facts. it isn't looking good at this moment.

ondeeair2321 · Guru

No big I understand and u are right. But honestly besides the hard numbers I know are fact, we got zilch. It's all rumors. I don't know tvb people and am hoping that 19 changes is right bc they we got shots. The 17th lets hope for all we can do.

Bigguy69 · Senior Member

Rumors are rumors.. Facts are facts .. No vet letters equals=O changes. Fact

sig226 · Senior Member

This is the reason why many vets have not and will receive any letters-they simply used those points for sgt test. They are trying to finagle the system by using them again but the problem is, dept and dcas are computerized and keeping the records.
Thats just my two pesos

PTSD?? Gtfoh. Your giving that loser capt and this retarded test too much credit.

Chew11 · Senior Member

Paging doctor papi for the "it is what it is" the wait is almost over line

Sarge · Senior Member

Didn't sgt2be already call dcas and they told him that vet letters can come out after the list is established? Besides I already told everyone this because thats what they told me as well. Didn't someone already come on here and state he was verified at bmoc? Relax with the vet letters guys, if we get them great then most likely list will be out soon. If not its not a big deal either...

sgt2be · Guru

It's not a big deal sarge until someone gets one and they say they are geting it done to expedite list...then it becomes a bigger deal

Sarge · Senior Member

ehh but that guy was an original passer who had claimed vet status late. So hes in a league of his own which makes sense why he was the only one who was called down...
