cptwright 1 Posted November 12, 2004 well tomorrow is my state test for firefighter I & II. all should go well, i got a 90.5 on my final exam in school, which the state test is drawn from the same test generator. got an over all average of 88.5, so the written should be fine, then theres the practical skills test which shouldnt be a problem, but there is the "test choke factor". but its getting there after tomorrow is some short courses then graduation on dec 3rd, one cool class by then will be rope rescue, repelling and all that. well again wish me luck, ill let you know how it went later.

cptwright 1 Posted November 12, 2004 thanks, well the practical skill tests were no problem, but most of the class feels really bad about the test. the test wasnt much of what we prepared for. almost all of us kept upper 80's, and lower 90's then this test came along and kicked our butts. i dont think i failed, but i know its gonna be ugly. now its just gonna be a long week waiting to find out. hopefully by wed at least.

mj 7 Posted November 13, 2004 Just wait and see, it may come out better than you think. I know some folks , who prepared and studied and studied some more, who have felt the same way coming out of such professional tests. But they passed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cptwright 1 Posted November 13, 2004 thanks everyone, im sure it'll be ok, but the test just felt quite discouraging, but they will let all that fail take it again, and if that many failed that think they did, their gonna look into it anyway that maybe they gave us a test from a different book. there are a few different firefighter one and two books out there. well thanks again ill let ya know next week.
