Everyone should go to the protest session. After seeing the Sgt. list I will be attending the protest to get as many points as I can. You never know how big our list might be.

Agreed one name on a captain exam can be a 6 month wait!

Some people will say "the test was straight forward and there will be no throw outs", but we have to remember those same people said "there will be a lot of throw outs for the 2015 Lt exam" and we all saw how that ended. so I agree we should all go to the protest.

I think there are actually a couple of questions that will be tossed or made double answers on the exam.

I agree. I protested a total of three, two of which I legitimately believe were double answers and one throwout

Damn I'm upset I couldn't make it. I passed but wanted to see what I got wrong and protest a few. Hopefully I pick up a couple of points. They really should give you more options of when you can attend.

Without going into detail (even though its a different test for the makeup), I like the question that invoked part A of some inbasket paperwork to get tossed because their answer had the wrong actor doing it. So none of the answers are right. I also like the transit related question being a double answer. I believe another answer was as good and cited it from the same procedure. A case could be made for A maybe a couple others but I feel like those 2 are very likely to be adjusted. I took a shot at a couple of other questions as well.

I protested the part A one also, also the Commandpost one is a double answer

My friend has a 69 and needs 1. Says he protested 10 with 4 he feels has a good shot at being amended on the final answer key. He said 50 were at his session and was told about 40 was in the daytour session.

Thank you Bigfoot and others for the part A thing. I planned on doing that one too but I had to skip the session.

No problem pal. That's the only one I can honestly say is 100 percent going to get tossed. If it doesn't the board didn't bother to do its job.

one thing the 2015 Lt Exam taught me is nothing is certain. I saw 2 question Throwout/double part A question and command post question should be a double answer.
