soccerpsyco32 · Senior Member

May 2017.

Axel Foley · Veteran Member

They announced the 2015 Lt exam in August of 2014 with about 200 names left on the 2011 Lt list...
look for an announcement with about 200 left on this one, which should be sooner than later.

I would say April. This list is going to be below 200 names in a 3-4 months.

Jibberjab · Senior Member

So then they should be announcing a test within next few months?

karatekid · Senior Member

DRPapi1983 · Guru

soccerpsyco32 · Senior Member

Exams schedules are released for the fiscal year. The current fiscal year ends 6/30/17, meaning the latest possible date for the next test is 6/30/17. I'm still holding firm for May.

Devil Dog · Senior Member

Bigfoot, do us a favor a make a 2017 Lt exam forum please.

bigfoot45 · Guru

I can't. That is going to come from EZE.

Paul Benedict · Veteran Member

Ah nah, I guess no captain's exam this FY...

Done: risingstarpromotion.activeboard.com/f625252/2017-lieutenant-exam/

No more notes, too! We replaced it with our own Patrol Guide. The Essential Guide is the Patrol Guide with notes, tips, acronyms, and summaries/takeaways on some of the more complicated procedures. Instead of taking out the "fluff" we just shaded it gray, so you can still skim it. Also, it will only contain just Lieutenant duties and below!

It'll be part of the course. We will continue doing our study at home program but we will also be going live this time around with weekly classes.

Darkman · Veteran Member

Eze, will you guys be offering a digital version of the essential guide?

Drstylez12 · Senior Member

Wow weekly online classes that's pretty legit, so your course will include all this?

eze · Co-Founder/Owner Rising Star

We're working on making the digest available digitally, as well.

The live classes will be in person (it will also be recorded so you can do it from home). We'll be doing it throughout the 5 boroughs/adjoining counties.

The live class option will include the Essential Guide, weekly questions, Legal Digest, in-basket course, etc... It'll be everything you need for the test

We're still figuring out pricing (waiting on our supplier to see what the overhead will be) but we anticipate it to be around $549 for study at home or $749 for live classes.

DETSGT · Guru

Can we move this thread to the 2017 forum?

Theforceisstrongwiththisone · Guru

Any rumors on a date for the exam? I'm hearing June.

Wheresthelist · Guru

I heard the same but where i heard it wasn't anyone i would consider a source.

Donhuevo · Member

Any idea if the printed version will be small or 8 1/2" x 11"?

Khalidviet · Veteran Member

This may not be the best place to post this question, how long can you defer your promotion to Sgt when your list comes up, I was just put on track, and I expect to get promoted in about 7 months. Can I postpone my promotion for 11 months until I get a detective shield? Thanks.

up until right before the list expires you're good. I know many people who've done this.

I have asked a few people in regards to registering for the lt exam. I am one of those people that may or may not make to take lt. Exam will DCAS allow us to register as PO's for the exam and obviously take it as Sgt's cause of the 2/3 month gap I think I would be a Sgt by then.. Confused by these new dcas rules

Wheresthelist · Guru

You can also sign up for the test in BMOC. Leadership Training Section will forward your application to DCAS even after the filing period.

For Eze:

will the material be. 8 1/2x11" or small version?

Right now it looks like it will be the mini--but we're still in the process of finalizing everything.

In the end, you'll have access to 3 guides: an electronic Essential guide, a printed mini-Essential Guide, and one section of the Essential Guide each week edited down to the rank of lieutenant.

I've always been an advocate of having at least 2 printed guides: one for reference and one to tear-up, mark-up, write all over, etc...

As far as classes go it's probably going to be Friday day/night in the Bronx/upstate border; Monday day/night in Brooklyn/SI;

Saturday morning and afternoon in Nassau/Suffolk/Queens; Wed. night by 1PP.

We don't want to go too crazy with the locations since this is our first time going live, but we could always add more if the demand is there and based on feedback, so let me know your thoughts.

Hey Eze. I just wanted to clarify, are you only doing live courses or were you planning on doing both, live and at home study? Thanks in advance.

Detox, we're doing both live or study at home (or a combination of the two--it'll be up to the students).

There's no extra charge for mailing the material to the study-at-home students. Both options are $699.

If you do the study at home you will get everything the live class students get mailed to you. You can even come to class if you change your mind or whenever you're free.

BronxFriedRice · Veteran Member

Anyone has any idea when the test will be next year based on reliable information?

Jibberjab · Senior Member

This is insane they keep putting in/scheduling classes for lt but no exam is being heard of?

Theforceisstrongwiththisone · Guru

If i was a betting man I would say a Lt exam sometime in 2017...

Belowminmanning · Veteran Member

Has anyone received anything in the mail from Rising Star yet?

Wheresthelist · Guru

Yes. Yesterday

Week 1 lesson went out to the study at home people yesterday. It's the 202 questions and the accompanying lesson. The post office is closed Monday so give it until the end of the week. The Essential Guide (for those who haven't gotten it yet) should follow a few days after. Please bear with us for the slight delay; we had to hold off printing to get the 205 Interim Orders in there. The Essential Guide mailing will also come with the new PG 203-07 (which came out 12/30), so it'll be as up-to-date as possible.

All students (live and study-at-home) will get their Essential Guide mailed to them; live students can pick up their study packet at the door when they show up for class.

Yes; we will send out a link and your password once the first video is up.

With roughly 140 people left on the old Lts List after the 30 going in on Febuary 24th ... they will exhaust that list well before the end of this year if they continue with past history of promoting roughly 300 per year. They might have to expite the new list or go months without promotions.
