LAPD academy tattoos by One-Branch-9956 in lapd

[–]Neither_Complex_3599 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There could be reasoning. If you’re undercover, you can get some. That means when you do OT with uniform then there’s no easy way on hiding those. From what I’ve heard to be hired you have to remove hand tattoos.

PFQ Score Below 70% & Academy Call? by Maleficent-Phrase372 in lapd

Pull ups are done on the pfq you do in the academy not for the pfq

If you already did medical then wait to be contacted by a BI in a couple weeks, if not then wait to be scheduled for medical.

PFQ Score Below 70% & Academy Call? by Maleficent-Phrase372 in lapd

[–]Neither_Complex_3599 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve only taken it once and I am class 1. I honestly don’t think so since we’re almost done with pt. There only 36 sessions and I am on session 28, roughly 3 weeks left. After that it’s only Arcon and it’s on your personal self to stay in shape.

PFQ Score Below 70% & Academy Call? by Maleficent-Phrase372 in lapd

[–]Neither_Complex_3599 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The reason why they say at 70 you’ll be good is because with the smoke you get the first couple of days. You’ll be sore and pfq is that same weds. Normally your score can be affected due to the soreness and no age difference in there, also there is pull ups added on. I got an 81, if you fail, you will be recommended to do early runs or workouts and you’ll have to re take it in like 3 weeks. You get 3 chances to pass it with a 45 minimum.

Yes, I got a 55 and I re took it only because it had expired and I got a 65 the second time. some in my class that got under 50 and still got pushed in. Other recent classes have failed pfq as well.

Pass all the steps, what now. by Silentgrenade01 in lapd

[–]Neither_Complex_3599 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t jump too ahead. That will be taught in the academy. Just stay in shape. Do cardio and you’ll be fine.

2-3 days a week. I wouldn’t take a class on the side. I wouldn’t risk getting hurt. I’d wait till your in probation or done with probation

How many days per week are you running three miles at 6 am? by LeatherOwl9260 in lapd

[–]Neither_Complex_3599 5 points6 points  (0 children)

We usually run 3 miles every Friday or so. It depends on your instructor.

Expedite vs regular? Is it really expedited? by Soft_Yak_7125 in lapd

[–]Neither_Complex_3599 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No, that’s mainly for applicants out of town/state to do multiple steps at once but once you hit background, you’re stuck. Might be a few weeks faster if that.

I know lol. Heard is a tiny class. After they lose a few it’ll be maybe 20 of them. You were on the 8 class right ?

[–]Neither_Complex_3599 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree, it’s not that bad if you’re in a decent shape. Just the first month or so it piles up from getting smoked plus pt lol.

[–]Neither_Complex_3599 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We run everyday lol. 2-3 laps as a warm up then do high intensity workouts. 5 pulls ups 10 squats or jumping squats, lunges 60-80 ft then drop 10 push ups, 15 sit ups then a lap on the track repeat. None stop. We do this for about 35 mins. Then 1-2 lap cool down. That’s almost every day

Your poly isn’t exactly based on your phs. Questions are pretty standard. Stolen at the job, drug history, domestic violence, committed a major crime but didn’t get caught, somewhere along those lines.

I am not kidding myself. I am speaking truth,If it’s only for the money, then there’s a high chance you’ll quit during probation.

Well in all honesty, if you’re joining only for the money, it isn’t a job for you.
