Thanks for the great advice, I just wont want to damage any chances with the NYSP because of applications with other agencies. I have been applying basically Everywhere b/c I want to be in law enforcement.

I don't see anyting negative because I am basically going to copy all information from my NYSP application to the other applications.
Thanks again guys!

Does the academy get easier as it goes on or is it the same yelling and messing with you as it is in the beginning....if it does get easier when does it?? (wife of NYGIANTS)

Like some of the guys have mentioned is may not necessarily get easier rather you adapt to the routine. They do throw curve balls at you to keep you on your toes but it is never easy.

Every Sunday night driving off Exit 3 (correct me if I am wrong) you get the same sick feeling in your stomach whether it be week 2 or week 22.

Does anyone know how to find out the new list of eligibility?

I would think the best way is to keep checking on www.nytrooper.com.

Remember, rank numbers will change based upon the last (and upcoming March 21, 2009) military testing.

As of today, exam results from the October 4, 2008 Military Testing are not yet available.

Regardless of what it is now, it WILL change after they figure in the military applicants that tested in October and those that will test in March '09.

The most accurate rank number for all of us will be AFTER the March 2009 Military Testing.

Just my 2 cents. Anyone else, feel free to correct or agree with me.

Hey I know you guys have the .45 GAP now but do you carry a shotgun or rifle on patrol? If so does everyone? thanks and good luck to everyone

[VeeDubs86]

I normally would be happy with a score above an 80 on a test, but not when it ranks me above 11.5k.

Every Troop Car is equipped with a Remington 870 with a short barrel. We all qualify at 50 yards with slugs in it but I would prefer (and feel safer) having division allow me qualify with and carry an M4 (with green tip ammo) topped with an EOTech that I have to buy on my own.

I asked it because I just couldn't see it in pictures. But thanks for enlightening me.

Who wouldn't prefer one of these! Heck, I'd even buy my own too if we were allowed to carry them (I'd prefer it to be mounted above my head though)
