Chicago Police 2018 / December Exam

[Jamesmonroe]

Got my results today, I'm low 200s also. How much time do you think we have to prepare for the POWER test?

[Flash2121]

I’m guessing middle / end of February

[southpaw1]

Nice. They're moving along fast. Bet you got that answer real quick with those IPTs that went out. Do what you gotta do to be ready guys! Good luck.

Passed the written test. My lottery number is 19xx. Will the physical be soon after or a couple months since my lottery number is on the higher end?

[HoongBJJ]

Passed the written test. Lottery #59X. Excited!

[1021chicago]

How many people passed (I didn’t take this last test).

[60630Chicago]

Got 7xx,
They sent out a corrected email today saying the total candidate are 3,964

[Flash2121]

I wonder how many took the test

[Flash2121]

Yea wasn’t sure if it’s 6 months back or a year
might have to call HR and find out

[Cyncyn16]

February 23rd is the IPT for the first #500 candidates.
Im in the low #400’s. Gotta start preparing now!

[Micayla Collins]

Can someone answer these questions for me.
1. If I haven't smoked in two years, would I still be ok to move on through the process?
2. How long does weed stay in your hair follicles?

[Corsell]

1. You should be okay as long as you stay consistent with whatever information you provide throughout the process.

2. Quick google search states about 90 days.

[Saluki89]

I'm in the 2800s . Friend at the academy says next class likely in march.

[southpaw1]

Tuesday 19 Feb is the next start date.

[Cyncyn16]

Did anyone receive an invite to the IPT yet??

[AspiringChicagoCop]

Low 100's. No.

[Jamesmonroe]

I recieved an email with a date for the power test. Wondering if anyone else has gotten theirs?

[Flash2121]

Yea I got it too for March 2nd
I still can’t find out if the power card is good for 6 months or 1 year
Called HR and academy and no one knows and keeps transferring me around

[AspiringChicagoCop]

Jamesmonroe @Flash2121

Strange, I'm concerned now. Do you haves guy military preference?

[Jamesmonroe]

Yes. I am a veteran and CPS graduate. @AspiringChicagoCop

[Micayla Collins]

Yeah, my physical test is March 2nd, and I am number 15XX

[gadams22]

My investigator told me I should hear something in February but I haven’t received anything yet.

[DittyBlue]

Power card should be good for a year.

[Flash2121]

So a power card issued in end of May last year is good for this power test in March ?

[Micayla Collins]

I hope my power card is ok,,, Mines was issued April 28th 2018 and my exam is March 2nd

[Alex93]

Hi there,

I'm in the 2,000s, wondering when I will be receiving my IPT invite. Does anyone know how often do they have the IPT and if they are going in number order?

Also for that have done their PT at Nipsta, is it worth it?

[DittyBlue]

Flash2121 I got mine and it’s dated for how long its good for.

[Micayla Collins]

I got an email about the physical exam for March 2nd at 11:00am. I have a power card as well that's good until April 28th, so hopefully they will accept it, otherwise I'll take the exam. Does anyone have a clear answer on how recent the power card has to be?

*Side note: I've already contacted CPD new hire, and they never answered my question -_- )

[AspiringChicagoCop]

For the past 3 years, they were valid for one year from the time it was issued,
