Good book but all tests vary... January 31, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I think this book was a good study tool for taking the Police Civil Service test. It taught me a lot about the process of becoming a Police Officer and what to expect throughout the process.
The problem is that not all Civil Service tests are the same. My test consisted of a listening portion (not found in this study guide), reading comprehension (which is gone over in this book), and about 75 percent of my test was a personality test. Of course, the book couldn't help with that.
Buy the book as it is a good source of information and may be a huge help in taking the test but keep in mind all tests are different and there may be parts of the Civil Service test that you really can't study for. Will you master the Police Officer Exam? Possibly. However, there's no book you can buy that can really guarantee that. Good luck!
Easiest to use, questions are in question December 28, 2007 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
This is by far the simplest out of the 3 other books I have already completed. However, comparing this one to the others these questions seem to be less likely to be on a police exam (at least for CT), and a lot of the questions asked are not clear. Good book if your starting out, but won't help that much if your test taking veteran like myself. Judgment and oral board questions are best in Larry Jetmore's police exam guide, and the Barron's police guide has excellent memorization and recognition tests that will definitely be on your test. I suggest you buy as many preparation guides as you can for just over $10 since it goes without saying how expensive these police exams are today. ($25-75)
All around a good book for the Hiring Process October 22, 2007 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I bought this book in addition to Barron's Police Officer Exam book. I found that the sample tests in the Barron's book were more like the actual written exams I have taken, however, the Arco book had a lot of extra information to help you out with the oral interviews and psych evals which made it a better all around book. Id recommend getting both, but if you can only get one, Id choose the Arco.
Terrific March 22, 2006 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
The Master The Police Officer Exam does an excellent job. The tests are very helpful!
In a class of its own October 21, 2005 32 out of 32 found this review helpful
I closely scrutinized a half dozen cop test prep books and purchased another besides this one. 'Master the Police Officer Exam' is significantly above the others. Its greatest strength is that it seems to be written by someone who knows specifically about cop tests- not just tests in general. There is above and beyond detailed information not just on the many aspects and types of written exams, but also the different video tests. In addition, its many practice tests are authentic and are from different sources (NYPD and NCJOSI).
