In Basket


I know the assumption is no In basket.  But I still have heard they may throw in basket style questions on the test.  Can anyone confirm no in basket?  Unfortunately I am 7:30am August 3, so I wont know unless DCAS sends us another message of whats going to be on the test.  At this point I may just run through one In basket just to be safe, but I hate to waste my time on it.

In basket style questions meaning what they're going to give a graphic of a roll call or are they going to give you a scenario of a roll call? I think if they do this it could be a possibility that it could be protested because we were told that there will be no in basket which means there should be no in basket question either

But where is this rumor of no in basket coming from? I know Yano and misfud are both saying that. But you said we were toldby who? How could you protest something if there was nothing official told to you in regards to it?

Its crazy there is no clarification from DCAS being that all the Aughst 3rd test takers will have no idea.  The 4th has an advantage because if theres is a in basket they can prep it the night before.

Why should Dcas tell you if theres an in basket? No other test had this. It was just assumed that would be. No offense the question of in basket or none shouldnt change anything. Ive done in basket last always. My reasoning is that the answers are given to you. You just need to organize it to find them. The technical knowledge is in the pg so I want to spew everything in my head into those questions first. Just me, but this method will still allow you to have same game plan test day. Either you start w question 1 if no in basket or question X after in basket. Just alil piece of advice thats better then whining about Dcas

 When I took the last test in regards to the inbasket a few actually several questions were still basing the answers off of patrol guide knowledge so u had to know the procedures.
