Well as some might know, I'm currently in the process of getting into the Maine Criminal Justice Academy, next academy of which starts in January. I am currently in the process for the State Police but am also getting everything done for sponsoring myself to attend the academy just in case I get DQ'd for some reason. I have two questions, just looking for info really...
First, I just took the psych test today for sponsoring myself and believe it went well. To me really it was just a plain conversation about my history and also a IQ test as well as a MMPI. Is this the same psych that most of you have been involved in? Just seemed simple and inconclusive...obviously its not.
Second, through my process for the state police it was found that my app was lost when there was a "change in positions" in the HR department. I have since been contacted and have a Oral board scheduled for the ninth of December. To me it seems that from the nineth of December to the 23rd of January (when the academy starts) they might not be able to get all the BI, psych and poly done in such a short period of time. Sucks to as I wanted to get into this academy for the state police but may not be able to now due to someones fault in HR. My question is, just getting your opinions now, I will have all my BI, psych, poly, and physical done before the 23rd on my own as that is when they need to be in for sponsoring myself. Do you think that the state police would take the above scores to allow me to be able to get into the academy if they hadn't planned on getting me into this one, vacancy permitting?
Thanks for any input, maybe someone has run into this before.
