Yeah I agree. Probably just want to process as many candidates as possible before this exam expires.

Hey all,
I wanted to share some gossip I heard speaking with a State Trooper who works at the state capitol. He said that Governor Cuomo wants to start "flooding" the streets of NY with troopers. He wants to start putting them at both Laguardia and JFK as well as other areas currently under Port Authority. I guess the Governor wants Troop M to get a lot more troopers, not sure if this means they'll be sending rookies down to the city but it certainly explains the high number of processing going on.
Has anyone else heard anything??

Hoping we hear some info next week about the medical Weekend though.

lol may as well assume you're from NYC like everyone else outside of NY says. I'm hoping for A or E but my luck isn't too good so we'll see where I'm moving to...

Since were on the topic of job assignment. How does it work with placement following the basic school? Do you have a dream sheet or does it just go by random and your placed where they need you? Is your FTO in that same area?

They assigned people based upon senority / academic performance (I believe this is the only time and last time your academy class scores will matter). Your senority within the SP will always be based on your original civil service test score. In the past they have had recruits FTO in their home troop, and other times in the troop they are assigned to - really based on fto availability (ie. Troop A has lots of FTOs, so they allow people to train their even though they will be assigned to C and wont be back in A for 5 to 10 years, because C can't handle all the recruits for FTO). The last couple of classes most recruits have gone to C and B, with some sprinkled elsewhere. The common belief is that no one will go straight to Troop NYC, because then you would never learn to actually be a trooper. And when Cuomo leaves office and the next governor wants to know why 100s of troopers are standing around doing nothing, in someone else's jurisdiction, while some communities go without police at all, those troopers are gonna get sent back upstate and have to learn to be troopers all over again...
