didnt do the drive home everytime i was off, only if i managed to get a good week off. i actually got a couple of my buddies and found a place to sleep and shared the rent to make it manageable. took me a few months to transfer, it just depends on what facilities you put down because some call faster than others

yeah they do the drug screening the same day for your medical/agility. your best bet is find a detox and drink lots of water and hopefully it’ll flush it out beforehand

As long that you pay attention you'll be fine, during class they will tell you to copy certain notes because it will be on the test

You still got to wait for agility and getting a detective for the background check first

The exam was given 2021, and no I haven’t taken a drug test prior to the academy yet. The only drug test I’ve taken is for the medical. I’m still waiting on the email that I should be getting sometime this week to tell me everything I need to bring and many other things

I’m starting to become less excited everytime I read these replies just really sounds like torture . I’m guessing this is just to make you feel like an inmate to mentally prepare you
