Yea u have lectures everyday and quizzed on the material the next day 20 question quizzes

It's not bad bro just study there's a point where ur going to have a quiz every day they jam it in your brain that's like the first 3 weeks of the academy then u take the final then the state practical, then ur broken into platoons where u do scenarios the Rock evoc and u take the ny state ...

I have to reach a certain number on 13 total tests I forgot , u have to pass the class final state practical , and state written if u fail any u will be dropped from the academy

U can keep a mustache throughout the academy just nothing else for like the first 4 weeks they do a thorough uniform check so make so ur clean shave have a white under shirt and black socks .. It's really a walk in the park it's not hard

Congrats you're going to like the pm class .. U get night diff .. It's more relaxed and the instructors are awesome .. Best of luck see u guys out there lol cos most of your class going to the bx lol

I live in Long Island put the bx last and ended up getting the bx because of the need for ppl here

Not bad I'm in the north Bronx not as busy as the south but so far so good

They work 8 hrs yea

If u go to emd the likeliness of u transferring out is slim to none most ppl like it there from when I did a rotation there it's not so bad if u enjoy looking at a computer screen all day the bosses are ok in there , the Bronx isn't bad at all honestly a fun borough to work in there and bk...

After u graduate you are on internship until u finish a certain amount of skills and call types it will take forever to complete if you're in a quiet area , yes u can choose your division doesn't mean ur going there tho .. Valedictorian goes to the division they choose

Thanks bro once again good luck to all if you're valedictorian of your class u chose which division u want lol so that should give u guys some motivation , also it's best to be in a busy area while you're on internship so u can learn the job and get off internship

It's hard getting transferred out of emd also I did a rotation there it isn't horrible just depends if it suits u or not it can get boring quick tho but a lot of good ppl are there

Majority of ppl from my class went to the bx and Manhattan

No chief didn't say it but this is what regularly happens every class the bx is the busiest borough so the demand out there is high most ppl don't like being out there if u have to pay a toll to get there .. Every class at least 8 the least go to emd some chose to go some don't

That's where the dept need is high esp the BX and most ppl that got sent to the bx from my class that doesn't want to be there will transfer out and they send the new guys there

No prob bro if ur FDNY ur a family and I'm not 100% sure on the class number he did not state that I'm guessing it's going to be 120 tho and most of u are going to communications or the Bronx lol

It's a lot of PT the first 3 weeks once u break off into platoons u do less PT , PT isn't that bad but they try to whip u into some form of shape during the time they have u .. Push-ups squats .. Mountain climbs .. V ups .. Mile runs
