[QUOTE="svtfocus2cobra, post: 15325965, member: 21786"] I have been out since 2014 and am in the middle of applying right now. Just did my physical/written with PST 2 weeks ago and scored a 99.89% overall adding in the veterans preference points. If you go through Public Safety Testing I suggest getting the study guides and practice tests. There's stuff on the real test that isnt in the guides but it will give you a good idea of how to get your mind on track to solving some of the more complex questions they will ask you. I am going through with a buddy from the military also and he didnt study because he had already taken CHP's tests. He did well scoring a 91% which ranked him at 18 out of the 181 candidates applying to the department, but with how much it helped me woth my score I am ranked 5th out of 181. Im still nervous about the oral boards and such but my other friend from the Marines, who is already with the department, said with those rankinga they will look to really get us through as they are looking to fill 24 spots. So the most advice I can give you from where I am at in the process is just that. It can give you that little edge to get ahead. The physical portion was really easy so if you go straight from the military you should already be up to standard. Unless it is like Alaska where the standards looked to be pretty high. Their mile and a half time is 9 1/2 min for max points or something which is pretty fast. [/QUOTE]
