Preparing for Your Exam
Police Services are after a very diverse group of individuals. The basic requirements are a high school education, but because it is such a competitive field, post-secondary education is extremely valuable. Police will consider applicants from a wide range of ages and from almost any professional background. It is important to have a strong work record, a history of volunteer work, and a commitment to community.
Everyone is different, and the preparation times differ depending on education, experience and skill. If you are preparing for an exam, it is best to give yourself at least a month to ensure that you are familiar with the material and environment. If you are pressed for time, you will just have to put more effort in each night.
Most of the material should not be new, but you may just be out of practice. Continue working through as many questions as you can. You should even ignore the timer on the tests and try to answer each question. The more effort you put in and the more practice, the more likely you will pass the exam.
Anything you can do to make you more competitive than other applicants will help your chances of being hired. Volunteer work is very important, especially in areas of mentorship, coaching or other areas of responsibility.
A strong military background would be very beneficial to your application. It is not necessary, but it would be an asset.
Having a Police Foundations degree or diploma is not necessary. Some recruiters prefer them, others do not. Police Services want a diverse group of officers and will take people from a large number of backgrounds. When choosing your education path, it is best to select courses that you find interesting.
Police services and testing agencies typically do not disclose passing marks for their exams. We find that students who are scoring in the mid to high 70% range (75%+) are very successful with the police exams.
We have a great deal of information including workout schedules, exercise routines and exercise descriptions on our site. You will obviously have to put the work in, but our material can help prepare you.
It is a good idea to go and speak to a recruiting officer before you apply to get information and suggestions. They are there to help you. Once you have applied, you must realize it may take a long time to process your application. Ask them when to follow up at the end of the conversation.
