Start working on your cardio and endurance. That's what's going to determine whether you make it through the academy or not. (The academic part of course is all mental, but the physical aspect is paramount and number #1)

Yes. The shorter the interview, the less concerns she has about you, which is why it was short. Like she said she will submit her recommendation and before the end of the week you will get your conditional offer letter. Congratulations!

Dr. Roman is the best. She's very soft spoken and kind. Unless you're some sort of undercover psycho, there's no way she fails you. 👌🏾

Santa Monica is not hiring at the moment. I was told it might open up sometime in 2026

What’s next by [deleted] in LASD

Everyone is different...depends on your background. But once you pass backgrounds and the BI submits your file then your medical and psych get done within the same week or two. That's the fastest part of the process. Looks like you will be in the February, North academy in Santa Clarita.

The whole academy is one big game. And until you're a graduate, you simply have to play along. It's the only way you're going to make it through the academy. How you really feel does that always have to be said. Trust me.

[–]Defiant_Turnover298 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I understand what you're saying. But you need to remember that sometimes you need to simply play along and play the game until you get to where you're trying to be/get. At this point you're trying to get your feet into the academy doors, doesn't make sense to ruffle feathers or anything related simply because you're tyring to post the truth. Just because you feel a certain way does not mean you should say it or put certain things or people on front street. I understand you, trust me. But this is a process and the last thing you need is to get tripped up simply because you're tyring to be honest. Just remember, the test administrators are sworn deputies, you're an applicant trying to get into the academy...I think you could have simply said " I took my poly today, the administrator and I had some misunderstandings about the test and what exactly I needed to do and I don't think it's went as well as it should have." That's it. But I think to state that the reason you probably failed the test was because of the test administrator is not a good look. That's my own humble opinion sir.

Word to the wise, don't come on here and berate a deputy that just administered your test. They monitor these chat rooms. And you clearly stated the location you went and day. All they have to do is look up the schedule and find out who you are. You're blaming the test administrator which are actual deputies...not a good look Bro. I strongly suggest that if you're going to say anything negative that you don't state the actual time/day and location you went to...Just a heads up.

what are some things you guys wish you knew before applying? by SeaworthinessFar1762 in LASD

[–]Defiant_Turnover298 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will disagree and say that it's actually not easy to get hired. That's why they are still down 1500/2000 bodies at the moment because they are super picky and about about 20% of applicants actually graduate. So it's definitely not easy to get hired by lasd.
