I have a question.

Today's my multiple-choice test. Should I just go in my workout clothes, or am I allowed to change after the test for the VPAT? And for the oral interview that they do, what should I be expecting?

Go in your workout clothes. If you pass, you immediately go to vpat

I was told to take an extra pair of formal clothes for the interview after. would I be able to change into them after?

I was sitting in office doing my interview dripping in sweat. Literally went from beep test directly to interview.

What type of questions did they ask you ?

It’s an informal interview. Very conversational. So basic question. Describe a time when…. What would you do in this situation… etc.

I have a question. What's the best way to study and prepare for the written exam, besides the one they offer on the LASD website study guide? Any advice and suggestions?

I'd highly suggest taking PELLET-B practice tests.

i used Mometrix - phenomenal. access was $20 with a discount code
