Default Some info for brits applying for Calgay Police Service.

Hey guys, I am also going through the application process but I'm a "local" thought I would give you guys some suggestions as far as some of the tests go. The ACT is the more difficult of the two tests as it goes through what looks like the toughest words in the dictionary and asks you to spell them and find words with similar meaning. I did manage to pass it but be prepared and make sure you go through that dictionary haha. The APCAT is measured out of 120 with a minimum score of 84 and the ACT is measured out of 134 with a minimum score of 73. Not so tough when you look at it that way but its harder than it seems.

Go to this site http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xafC5DhD_-M
It has a video showing the PARE test and it might be of some help.

As far as you fellows coming down to do the testing, I might be able to put you up for a couple of weeks as I live alone down here and its always good to help a fellow applicant out. Email me at [email protected] if you need some help down here.

Take care.
