This is my 3rd time taking this exam and I finally passed with a 80+ but this accomplishment is bitter sweet. Other commands are reporting similar results. Seems like a lot of people passed. An old timer Sgt told me that he has never seen so many people pass at one command. If this command is indicative of all of the N.Y.P.D then the list of passing candidates will be huge. He also told me what will either happen is that many many people will die on the list or that a curved passing score will be introduced in order to accomodate all the passing candidates. He further stated that back in the 90's he saw curved score as high as 84. This usually means that anyone with a score below 84 does not make the list but they pass.
I dont't know about most of you but I am going to see if I can do the run now in order to futher bolster my score.
I got an 81!!! But so far 31 people in my command passed. 22 of them are 80 and above and 13 got at least a 90. Now I'm gonna be worried if I actually make a list. You can pass but also not be on a list because it's too many people.
Im not joking either, 14 people passed from my command an unusually high number, all you can do is hope for the best. Forget about past history the list dies when it dies nobody knows anything until it happens

The list dies after 4 years. The PC can extend it but not nearly long enough for all to get made.

This person's command must be next door to DCAS. 31 passers? 13 with a 90? I think people will die on this list too but come on. This post has troll, Ogre, and Shrek written all over it. Time to go back under your bridge. The billy goats are coming.
This list will not get extended at all. They still intend to put out Sgt exams so people will most likely die on this list with no problem. I do intend to take the next Sgt's exam just to be sure I get made.

you said 31 people?f u margaret you little b.....im sure you got the math question wrong..u h...22 are in 80...and 13 got a 90....mtf...22+13=35 btch
My command is pretty big but still 31 is crazy and I'm not sure if that is everyone yet. I will have a better idea in the next couple days but there might be a few more to add.
MY GOD! I thought the 23 at my command was outrageous but if indeed you are truthful then my score is far from being safe. The run is a must at this juncture.
Well I am doing it for sure. I need all the insurance that i can get. I do not want to throw away all this hard work on the off chance that I die on this list or get cut off. If I can get ahead of 50 names then I am doing the run.
I'm sorry i made a typo. 12 are in the 80's meaning 80-89 and 13 in the 90's. the rest in the 70's. Total so far in my command 31 passed with 70 and above. There is no need for your nasty language. People can make a typo when they type quick.

How is this affecting your monthly cycle Margaret? I'm concerned.
http://risingstarpromotion.activeboard.com/t25982138/number-of-people-who-passed/ this ling is from the 2009 form..... eveything people are stressing about now they were stressing back then.
I can believe some of you are cops the way you talk to other cops. So you feel it makes you a big tough person to make fun of someone who is sick? Does that make you feel good?
patrol+failure dude was up with margaret that troll now she has a boy friend notasgtyet they are f trolls 3 weeks ago they were spreading rumors about the test getting thrown out now she don't even know how much is 22+13 ..

Granted the consensus seems to be this test was on the easy side, but 13 people with over a 90 in one command? In the 2008 test I believe 15 people had a 90 or above citywide. If you believe nonsense like this then God help the cops that you will be supervising!

Call it an easy exam or cheating but the end result is still the same.....THE LIST WILL BE HUGE AND THEREFORE MUST BE ARTIFICIALLY WHITTLED DOWN. If you think everyone will be made then I have a bridge to sell to you.

A bridge to sell us? Is it HB's brooklyn bridge?
If you want to pretend to be different people, remember to not use the same phrases.
Wow, and you are suppose to be on the same Sgt list as me. Amazing. My advice to you is to lay off the red bull and Starbucks. Insults aside, the fact remains that this test has a high volume of passing candidates.
PD28, thank you for adding your input. Some people here are under the belief that not many passed this exam and therefore everyone will be made. These people are destined to cry in their soups. The reality is that I have found that more than average have passed this test thus assuring a huge list that has to be whittled down in some sort of artificial manner. Some have said it will be a CUT OFF SCORE while I am more of the belief that they will let 3000 people make the list but then watch them all cry when a great number die on it.
Be it an easy test or a test rife with cheaters the fact remains that there are too many passing candidates and reality dictates that we all be prepared for the inevitable. I for one will do the run just in case.
congratulations to everyone! I got promoted off the 2009 list. It went 700 names in 2 years. I guess logically the 2011 can go 1400-1500 names in 4 year!.. GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE !
