Title: HPD Test
Post by: bushmasta55 on March 02, 2010, 02:46:12 PM

Anyone besides me taking the test???  I'm sure there's some LEO in here.  Any pointers or tips?  How about the academy?

No,  but can you document your journey through the process?   Let us know about all the tests and questions if its not confidential.   Im on Maui, been interested and would like to know from someone with first hand experience going through the process.

good luck

Just took the test this morning.  It was rough cause I just got of work.  Was on the 85 question and had only 10 mins left.  I'm not sure I did good, but I did my best, and if I don't make it there's always next time.  Currently, I"m a Criminal Justice Major, what other jobs are out there for me besides law enforcement?

There's always federal law enforcement or continuing on to become a lawyer or judge. I hope the test went well for you though. :thumbsup:

Corrections... Federal BOP officers are considered LE so they can carry concealed in any state per LEOSA.

Hope the test went well.

If you got one letter saying you passed, you better look for another job. If they sent you two letters, one that said you passed, and the second one saying that you scored high enough to make it to the orientation meeting on Apr. 3rd, then you are moving on to the next round.
