Police Test Tips
Timing As A Factor
The more you do something, the easier it becomes. It's that simple.  In order to grasp the police written test you
must take practice tests.  Not only will you begin to feel comfortable with the police test itself but you will reduce
that gnawing test taking anxiety that fills us all. Locate police practice tests and take them. You can duplicate an
actual test situation by setting a time limit for yourself. The importance of time management in test taking is
paramount. Know how much time you have to answer each question. Good test takers know this.

Before answering any questions they scan the specific test. They determine how many questions are on the
test so they can set a preferred pace. By setting a pre-determined pace successful test takers take control,
budget their time wisely and improve the odds of a higher score.

Divide your time. Know where you should be at the 1/4, 1/2, and 3/4 part of the test. By setting a pace for
yourself you will stay on a time schedule.  Check your progress as you go.  Remember to leave yourself some
time at the end to go back and complete unanswered questions and recheck your answers.

Going into the police test aware of this potential obstacle can make the difference between success and failure.
Knowing how much time you have on the written test, and taking a variety of police practice tests prior to taking
the actual test can lead you to a rewarding career in law enforcement.
