This was a pretty fair test, if u read the ridiculous admin guide procedures that don't really deal with captain.

It was very administrative guide heavy. I lost count how many admin questions we got. 50% was ground ball and the other 50% was obscure. Poorly written exam in my eyes.

crap · Senior Member

There seems to be a decent amount of passers. This is probably going to be a large list. The test was definitely admin guide heavy. But it was fair and the questions were short and straight forward for the most part.

63. Straight forward but damn obscure. Lt for life.

Studied for 6 weeks, didnt read AG at all, got 80.
Extremely easy test, it was made for us to pass it. They even had extremely easy math and cims questions.
Word of advice-they know that most of us, Lts, know PG procedures. More or less we are familiar with them. So they throw admin guide.

3testwonder · Senior Member

Obscure how if you dont mind me asking

Nypdnypd3100 · Senior Member

Dont share info about specific test questions on here. People still have to take a makeup I would imagine.

JDMEVO9 · Senior Member

Shouldnt confuse:
Simple worded questions
With
Ridiculous F**** Procedures that hold no bearing in real life.

Absolutely a waste. I barely passed and its a shame they ask BS S******
Seemed like an Anti-Elite/Key exam.

Nypdnypd3100 · Senior Member

Did you study a lot? What did you get?

Im guessing you didnt do Rising Star? They were pretty good with the coverage and questions. I feel that this test was geared toward that way (having taken more than 1 school)

Today were talking about a curve. Tomorrow we will be saying this exam will be thrown out. Its par for course for the rumor mill.

Bill Parcell right up there aced Rising rewrite exams and ended up with 74.
I took two of RS tests, got low 50s and ended with 80. Even RS dropped the ball with their convoluted rewrites

78, hard test. To the sergeants lurking in here, go over everything for your lieutenant's exam, everything!

If Bill Parcells got a 74, this test was fucked up. The Coach always wins!

77, not easy at all, but FAIR.

Bill Parcells · Senior Member

I hate the word "fair". Life isn't fair. This test was tough as fuck and i studied hard. My whole life I feel when I'm done with a test, I got a good idea if I made it. I didn't think I passed and was shocked to see the score. When I read the instructions it said "you'll get your score via email in 48-72 hours"

I'm proud to have passed.

Can't imagine many passed

Agreed. While this didnt quite compare to capt.insanos 2015 exam, this was a close second due to the obscure procedurces they asked. No relevance to being a captain at all. Its sad that the exam writers do this to their very own. I dont know about you but it felt like two different exams in one. Like one group of exam writers had sympathy for the 2015 Lt exam victims and the other group were capt.insano clones who hated the 9 heroes.

I went through Vucinaj's test. This was tougher from a another standpoint. I think this has to be the toughest test ever. They went everywhere on this test. If it isn't the toughest, it's up there

Still no comparison. There were many questions on that debacle of a Lt exam that i had no idea what they hell they were saying.

Im going to agree with you on this one. They went left field I think. It was stuff that I read but didnt think they will go to. Its that simple. Glad I made the list though. by question 40 I was like Jesus save me. Lol

I would say 80% of the test was made from standard and expected procedures. Some of the answers where a little odd but I think the wrong answers didn't fit even more in those questions. I took Elite and got an 87, but in general it's best to read everything no matter which class you take. They definitely hit some out of nowhere procedures but those accounted for maybe 6 questions. And a few others were obscure points in big procedures, but I felt like I immediately knew the answer for a lot of them before finishing the question with a bunch of them.

JimmyOneShoe · Member

Top score I know is a 93 so far. But I only know like 8 people.

brooklynbacon · Guru

Does anyone know anyone that scored in the 90s?

Well except for make up test takers since people like posting the procedures here.

Couple of guys in the 90s.. thinking a list of 200ish. On average, under normal conditions the job promotes approv 47 Lts to Capt a year.
