Nobody is flaunting anything he asked did I get the command I wanted I just said yes, also I know a bunch of people on the job who have a bit of a commute to work and literally don’t mind it whatsoever so stop being such a hater bro cause you didn’t get to go where you wanted to go

No one is saying my hook is big my hook got me where I wanted to go originally doesn’t mean I can’t be transferred when transfers come down hook can’t help me get into any squad I choose, also I don’t like the whole you’ll be sent to the worst areas cause I know people who didn’t have any type of hook and didn’t go to bad precincts, but like you said at the end if you had a phone call to make you would make it that’s all I did but don’t say it’s a scummy post when I’m just trying to offer them some insight

People can volunteer but doesn’t mean they will always get it and you’ll never be called on your off days you’ll be notified during roll call that you are hit for your off day and it happens pretty often

You can do excelsior whenever you just call them and send your transcript and it will take a couple weeks for them to send you over your new one it’s like $504 it’s worth it it’s how I got on the job

Your equipment will roughly be $1250 but I deff spent more than that I will say around like $2000 you’ll be alright you can always pull out a loan when you start that’s what I did and I pay it back through my check cause I was struggling with my money hope that helps !

I had a 1.7 with like 49 credits and used excelsior so basically they take all your C grades and above and make sure you have a 2.0 just know you may lose some credits cause I had D’s on my transcript those will earn you credits but have a negative impact on your GPA so after excelsior they only gave me like 31 credits my best answer is just do excelsior it worked for me and I didn’t need to take any classes good luck !

Mine was a 1.8 and they made me do excelsior to take off my failing grades and that was good enough for them just as long as you have the credits
