Definitely tough and unlike the test u will be seeing. The Patrol guide question exam does open your eyes to details and allows u to focus in on points u may have missed.

PatrolGuideQuestions.Com questions are straight up ridiculous. The actual exam is nothing like it. The fact that the med score was a 41 should tell you something. I agree with you ghetto, it was a complete waste of TIME & MONEY.

I also think it was just a big ridiculous test. I already had 40 wrong and I stopped at number 70 and i been studying 8 hours a day since May and been averaging mid 80s to low 90s on every test I have taken. my confidence was very high until i decided take this exam and honestly I think it just made me dumber. It took me 2 days of straight patrol guide reading to erase the memories of this test and the absolutely crazy answers just to get myself back to where I was before I decided to drop 30 bucks on this. I think I should of stopped when the answer to a 212 Threats to MOS procedure question was to voucher a dead fish in a paper bag because it's contained bio evidence. I mean really?

Holy cow, are you guys studying for the SPAA exam or the sergeant exam?  If you think there will be no low-ball questions on your exam, then I have a bridge to sell you.  Guarantee that there will 10-20 crazy questions in there. These are the questions that will mean the difference between you doing OK or acing the exam.  Now, I took the PGQ for Lieutenant and I'm guessing the questions are the same.  The benefit from doing these type of questions is to stop when you get a questions wrong and find out why.  Read it, and you'll realize that you didn't know the book as well as you thought you did.  These type of questions (like rising star, to some degree, I guess) is great for bringing the little details to light. The questions is just part of it...opening the book why to see why you got it wrong is the other part! The goal is to get it wrong now and not on test day.

C'mon, pull yourself together ladies.  Now, if you don't mind I only a few days left til the 29th.

bitches

 But sometimes there are crazy and ridiculous questions. Best to prepare for the worst, no?

Yea you should be prepared for the worse but some of those questions were out right crazy. How is the KEY, academy and Rising star questions (which people say are the closest to the real test questions) you do well on and then literally bomb the PGQ website.

Jill,
I agree in learning details and the book. However to start going over these questions your not going to get your review in. Its bad enough where I work Im lucky to get an hour or 2 a day and forget about RDOs (kids). So to start doubting myself and reviewing crazy things isnt feasible. Cmon place the fish in the PSE cause it has Bio evidence....really.

Wow hollar, you're really hating on patrolguidequestions.com! I thought the questions were actually pretty good. I mean after all, it was only $30 for a full length practice exam. All you're hating makes me wonder if you work for (or own) one of the schools that charges hundreds of dollars for BS questions that any moron can get right. Be careful by the way, I heard the 2009 Sgt exam was the easiest exam ever which explains how morons like you scored on the top of the list. Back then, they couldn't beg people to take the test. Now its a different story and I would expect a much harder test this time around and in your case a very difficult lieutenant test given the competition for that rank (that is if you really are a already sergeant like you claim). Anyway, the point is to prepare for difficult questions and then you'll get the easy ones right too. I'm glad the questions were tough and would have been pissed if I paid for an easy, ground ball test! Oh BTW, I didn't find any double answers. The ones I thought were double answers ended up being clear cut when I looked up the procedures and PGQ didn't play the "most" correct or incorrect card. If you have any examples of where you think there was a double answer, please post it. This way we can all have a good laugh at your expense.

To quote EZE "The stresses of studying has gotten to some of you." LMAO

Lol. Every1 always says every year. Such and such test was the easiest. Just study.

Jill, how would you compare the KEY and academy questions to the real test?
