Now they had to rent out the Centrum, and the Bayside Expo center, each of them all day because they each administered 2 exams. I took my exam at the Centrum, there were so many Troopers there they were crawling out of the walls... had to have been at least 30-40 Troopers. Renting each place for the day, plus at least 8 hours of detail money for each Trooper, having an outside company devise the exam, as well as grade 16,000 exams... I wouldn't think the exam is quite the cash cow... but I could be completely wrong. |
| Originally Posted by Rock Pvt.Cowboy, from what I've been told you are absolutely correct. It costs more than we think. I've been told the state breaks even on the exam and if anything its a loss due to ancillary costs. After the exam you have to pay for the PT tests, backrounds, interviews etc. |
