      Week 4 - 2nd Exam

      Glad to get this week over with. This was a stressful week. Exam # 2 was pretty hard to prepare for. Only 6 more exams and 9 more weeks togo. PT isn't so bad anymore. Getting used to it finally. For all you guys and gals that are getting ready to come to FLETC make sure your doing some kind of cardio training to stay in/get in shape. Good Luck and congrats!

            EWRTSO,

            Still have not heard anything. I selected the NJ region as well. Tested on 11/15 with a NOR on 11/19.

            Maybe you'll get something around Christmas

              Thanks for the feedback.

              I'm trying to also keep up with what others are seeing in the TSA. When i took my written test in downtown Newark the proctor asked the group who taking the test was TSA....... over half the room raised their hands.

              Thank again!

                  Hi there ExSDSO, I too am waiting for those exact things to clear in CASS. My medical cleared about 3-4 weeks ago. Up to this point things had been moving along rapidly.

                  Took the written test on August 29th, 2007. When did you take your written?

                    I took the test a lil over a year ago and before I left the San Diego Sheriffs Department I called and had my profile reactivated but my medical cleared maybe a 1 1/2 months ago. I just heard from my father in law who works for CBP here in san diego that we could be leaving in the summer time becasue there getting 120+ academy grads here soon to start working so i dont know.
                    What if quotas did exist?!

                          Dont sweat it man. VBT is a joke, kinda weird at first cuz your alone in a room basically acting in front of a video screen. But its just common sense. But that being said, be smart and mature about your answers, because the VBT has to be passed to continue to the next hring steps and it would be a dumb thing to get knocked out for.
                          Good Luck

                                They dont ask questions. Theres video taped scenarios, then they tape you reacting to them. Its honestly more like acting than an interview. As a matter of fact its not an interview whatsoever.
