jdpopo, sent you a PM.

Not trying to get into your business but what did you need a waiver for? I'm slightly concerned about my hearing loss from the military. Curious if they'll disqualify me for it.

[1811Applicant]

04/19 applicant here. Just had my medical waiver approved. Anyone have any sense of how long from waiver approval to PFT?

aspiring1811 No dress code for exam. You report to a testing center that administers all types of tests for different organizations.

[ShockTroopDevilDog]

One month or so after the last testing date.

I took the proctored test on 02/12/2020. I haven’t heard anything back. I’m starting to think no news is good news. Can anyone who didn’t pass the test tell me how long it was before they notified you?

[aspiring1811]

Is there a dress code for taking this test? There was nothing on the email pertaining to the dress code and am not sure whether it is business attire, regular clothes, etc.. Thank you.

For the April exam, they did not send anything official out saying you passed. People received emails letting them know they failed, but otherwise, you’ll only know you passed if you receive a TO or have offices start reaching out to you.

When do they usually tell you if you passed the exam?

[Radio Raheem]

When they send you to the border, you have to be able to eyeball all the seized contraband and quickly convert standard to metric.

ens189 The test is for all those ‘old west’ style showdowns. You know, where a criminal squares off against you and challenges you to an arithmetic competition. “We calculate Pi at high noon you dog-faced pony soldier...”

[Trooper33]

No joke at all!

[ens189]

Entrance Exam is no joke.

From what a recruiter told me, it’s twice a year.
