2019 MTAPD Exam Announcement

[Reese1085]

Kamil369 ive been checking since I saw the post. I haven’t received anything.

[Reese1085]

Kamil369 nope I found the email in my junk folder and apparently I didn’t pass. I don’t understand I felt like I did great on the exam.

[BernardH31]

Does anyone know what you have to score to pass? Is it at least a 70?

[ZooKeeperOEF]

You don't find out your score. It's a Pass/fail.

[Reese1085]

Kamil369 it says that I didn’t achieve a passing score

[Mike_lowrey]

Those that didn’t pass what was difficult about the exam for you? Did you get a chance to finish all the questions 80 + 115 + the last 5?

I thought it was pretty straight forward. I did find it difficult. I finished the entire exam, but somehow I didn’t pass.

[Bidstar]

I don’t think you found it straight forward because you mentioned being “difficult” so looks like you struggled during the test.

[Segurosky3410]

Shout out those were selected.

[Reese1085]

I’m curious, what did you find difficult about that exam?

Sorry that was a typo. I didn’t find it difficult.

i got the email on Friday, got a passing score and selected to move forward in future processing.

[Mike_lowrey]

Congrats. Interesting so there telling people pass/fail along with whether or not they will proceed?

[PuertoRican_COP]

Highly doubt that they told you that you’re 100% moving to the next processing everything is a lottery. So doubt they’d say that in this email.

Technically It states that you are eligible for future processing. By saying moving forward i am just saying I got a passing score , of course it is a random lottery system.

Does anyone know the standards for the physical fitness test along with the percentile we have to be in?? Trying to see that the numbers that must be hit to continue

[HighwayBob]

It's simply the Cooper Standard. You can look it up.

[ZooKeeperOEF]

Kamil369 has the outdated Cooper standards. MTA follows the CT Cooper assessment I believe a few more seconds were added to the 1.5mile with the addition of the 300m sprint, can be found if you Google CT CHIP test.

thanks broski

[Segurosky3410]

For those that weren't selected for written exam, HighwayBob might as well hang up. Thanks for always keeping posted

[bm813]

Just to get some clarity from reading this forum, if anyone knows. Will there be two more written exam dates in 2020 or has the MTA definitely decided to cancel any future 2020 dates for the exam?

[HighwayBob]

FYI, I've heard from at least one person here who took the November test that they were notified that they passed and have been scheduled for a panel interview next month. So it looks like things are moving along a bit faster than predicted.

[Mike_lowrey]

That's awesome, I'm patiently waiting for the December scores to go out. Guessing they're doing interviews before fitness tests.
