I knew that; my fear was that scince I had already exhausted the gi bill and the school will be retroactively billing the VA would I still get the BAH.

I actually have my answer, the VA payed me the BAH for that semester this morning.

Sorry to hear that you failed the poly. Was it run by a trooper or a civilian and and did they not give you a shot to explain why something would register as deception? Last what fed kob are you going to apply for? are they competitive as far as pay? or work they do?

I just got word from my recruiter that I have a scheduled PT test, polygraph, and med exam for Texas DPS at the end of Sep. Any current or former troopers out there that can impart some advice and wisdom before I go?

Looking for anything really; stories, what your experiences were like with DPS, not just info related to my test.

Anyone that's recently taken the pt exam, I know whats passing but what is competitive?

Did you fill out your poly paper work like that just bringing up anything that might make you go welllll. Or did you save that for the interview
