NO !!  You will wear stripes for life !!   You will NOT lose your Chart Days to the Lieutentant's rank.  You will earn more overtime as a sergeant.  Too bad you WILL retain better benefits as a sergeant.  You will NOT be yelled at during COMPSTAT meetings.  70? HA!  Yeah right  !

Nah in all seriousness if those with 70 ranked even in the 650 to 700 range, they will most likely get made.  A lot of retiring going to happen in the next 2 years.  They are not going to reach 700 on the current list.

Good luck on whatever you decide and be safe.

I hope 70 does get promoted

i don't see a short list, there are LOTS of people in the 65+ range, when the smoke clears id bet around 1000 on the list

depends who u talk to, alot of people exaggerate and say they failed, now that some time has passed and the initial shock is over, u will see, many scored higher than they think

I hope so, and I think probably. I can't see the list being more than 700 at best (if there are massive throwouts), but then again what do I know...not the NYPD patrol guide thats for sure.

i think they will throw out/dbl answer enough to fill "anticipated vacancies" over the next 4 years. I'm sure someone in DCAS or 1PP has a master spreadsheet that figures out how many people will pass if we toss this question or that question.

I know of someone who told me they know they absolutely know they failed and told someone else they aced it so trust me a lot of people are exaggerating.

People are lying. I doubt more than 300 people passed with the initial key.
