Edweirdo 18 Posted December 30, 2017 Report Share Posted December 30, 2017 Hey all, my interview for APD is about 12 hours away, any really good tips for studying/memorizing the whole handbook, ticket guide? Or should I just try to read it all through and remember as much as I can? Thanks, mentalgaming13 Quote Link to comment

destruct 1357 Posted December 30, 2017 Report Share Posted December 30, 2017 What I did was read through it once, and then skimmed through it again - just reading the main points and trying to remember the information contained inside those points. Kept going over it again and again like that until I felt confident I had it down. Took me 1hr30min. Quote Link to comment

I mean, quiz yourself skimming over it with the topic headings like I said, if you confidently answer them, should be no problem my guy Quote Link to comment

Toasty 1564 Posted December 30, 2017 Report Share Posted December 30, 2017 Your interview shouldnt be that difficult if you have read the handbook a few times, just make sure you comprehend what youre reading. Quote Link to comment

Edweirdo 18 Posted December 30, 2017 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2017 Yo @G.O.A.T. here is 20 buckaroos my guy, how about we let this interview thing slide, and get me whitelisted? XD Quote Link to comment
Panda :) 1916 Posted December 30, 2017 Report Share Posted December 30, 2017 the test is very easy and I think you need at least 80% of the questions correct to pass. Quote Link to comment
Edweirdo 18 Posted December 30, 2017 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2017 Alright, anyone wanna quiz me before the official test? Wait, that isnt allowed, is it? nvm Quote Link to comment
LULA 2022 - PT 13 487 Posted December 30, 2017 Report Share Posted December 30, 2017 Dude remember that you start as a dep/po select and for the most part your initial APD evals will focus on that so read up but remember that for now you’re probably gonna need low level officer things like probable cause, red zones,etc knowledge a lot more than you’re going to need advanced stuff like the top speed of a European ghosthawk and the like. Good luck and know that APD is worth the initial stress Quote Link to comment

RambleR 1138 Posted December 30, 2017 Report Share Posted December 30, 2017 Easy on the money/pizza peeps. From my 3 yrs as apd, experience through playing the server is your best way to become apd. If you are a nervous person.. you will most likely fail the test. Confidence and knowledge is key my friend. GL from a retired Lt. @mentalgaming13 Quote Link to comment

Guest G.O.A.T. Posted December 30, 2017 Report Share Posted December 30, 2017 Deputy/PO evaluations are more so book based questions. Once you get up to Corporal/FTO it’s where you’ll meet the situationally based questions that you can’t really learn from the handbook. Quote Link to comment
