482 sat for the test. This info is from a FOIL request. Looks like a Pass rate between 45 and 50 percent.

Where'd you get the pass rate from? Did your FOIL request get you that or another source? Thnx.

Just to update with the new info at hand, 266 out of 482... 55% pass rate. Extremely fair exam. If everyone gets promoted I believe the job still has a way to go in making the Captains rank more appealing to LTs. The pass rates for Sgt and Lts was much lower and those lists look extremely long.
