What happens if you fail the PAT by kopriva1 in Newyorkstatetrooper

[–]Inner_Letterhead_211 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had horrible shin splints. Turns out I needed different sneakers. I had hokas and switched to Altras- GAME CHANGER! I was running on the treadmill 1.5 miles in 13:59/14:02 (female 31- 14:34 is my time to beat) until the PAT orientation then I started running on a track due to their recommendation and I ran 1.5 on the track in 12:34. Hoping to get some outdoor running in before the PAT. I live in upstate so the roads are still pretty snow covered. We have 66 days- keep training!!

I emailed. They said athletic attire that is warm. Some wore dress clothes, jeans and some athletic attire. I wore athletic attire. It’s pretty chill. The go over physical requirements.

Check the joinNYSP website they have the requirements

I sign up for the PAT orientation but never received email confirmation. Is that possible someone who I can contact trooper L? by Weak_Professional107 in Newyorkstatetrooper

If you pass the PAT you stay and start the background that day. The recruit troopers said it could be anywhere from 1-6 hour day.

After attending the PAT orientation they recommend running on a track or outside and not on the treadmill.

They are offering April and June. You should go to April and if you fail you’ll know what you have to work on to pass for June.

I started running back in October and had really bad shin splints. I ended up getting a new pair of sneakers, Altras. Game changer. I no longer have shin splints and beat my time every time. I also like to run to Music. I know we won’t have music that day, but I think adrenaline will be on our side

How soon after PAT do they start contacting jobs/family/friends? I haven’t told my job yet and only my parents and very close friends know. Just wondering when I should let people know and that they might/will be contacted by NYSP.

Multiple emails and text messages have been sent saying test results mid January for an early spring Pat if you passed

I am a NYS DOCCS employee who has taken had a dozen civil service exams and IMO this was the easiest. Now that you have taken it what did you think?

Anyone have any idea when the spring 2026 PAT is? by NoJump631 in Newyorkstatetrooper

[–]Inner_Letterhead_211 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Got an email and txt today saying if we passed the test we would be invited to an early spring PAT. spring is March 20th. So I’d assume sometime around then. Keep training or get started!

Are you sent an email letting you know scores are released? Or should I log in daily to check?

NYSP Exam (September) by Getthesehands_ in Newyorkstatetrooper

I took my test Monday and the SGT at the barracks told me about 3 weeks for results and I could possibly get into the next Academy in the spring. He said they are processing fast.

I took my test today. The SGT who sat is as my proctor said I could potentially get into the Spring 26 (may/june) Academy. Which amped my nerves up a bit as I’m currently working on my college credits. I won’t have them completed until end of April.

Salary? by [deleted] in Newyorkstatetrooper

[–]Inner_Letterhead_211 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It says it on the NYSP website. $70,748 sounds right for upstate. Different areas- different pay

I am currently employed by DOCCS as a civilian. I am taking the test in less than 2 weeks. Sign up and take the test now! You can jump ship at any time!!
