OKAY. Technically, you have to be a member of the FDNY to apply for the promotional and the cutoff is 29 for both, open competitive and promotional. Guys, that first day you go for orientation you're all sworn in as members of the FDNY, but this doesn't mean you will all pass the academy. So, I...

Don't worry about it too much.. You probably won't be wearing that attire until like a week after you've been in the academy and they'll let you know which one to wear.

Ehh the sweats are for PT but we didn't wear those at all- we wore shorts& you're always supposed to wear a white t under your uniform shirt and black socks at all times. And you're not allowed to have direct deposit while in the academy you'll receive pay checks.

Lol if you do that you'll get chewed out so fast in front of everyone! You can't wear anything that's not issued to you by them.

All the pants they gave you should be the same type. And there's about a 3 week delay before you get your first check. The city works a week behind.

I'm not sure about the medic basic program but for the EMS academy there will be a class of 120 NOT 75.. 60/ day and 60/night.

PM class gets night diff which makes a little bit of a difference

I'll be seeing you new guys the last couple of days of our academy be prepared for a lot of stress! It's a great academy tho, you'll have a lot of fun! Good luck and keep your head in the books!

Oh boy you sound like trouble already.. But let me just start by saying that if you're on time, you're late & if you are late the whole class will wait for you to show up. You guys do everything as one big team which means no person left behind. As far as attendance goes; you're expected to show...

Everyone choose PM!! You'll thank me later.

No problem bro. And it really depends on the needs but I don't think so. And I'm actually not sure about the academy dates .. But I deff know that there will be a September academy.. good luck through the process!

I highly doubt that. There's about 300 people left on 4004 and September will probably be a class of 120. So hopefully they finish 4004 off in September and start 5003 after the September academy. And as far as the medical; your blood will be checked for almost everything you can think of. They...

Ahh man it's going great. It's a very fun learning experience.. Learned more than I ever knew about EMS and still learning some more. But yea if you just listen to the instructors you'll be golden.

They only call you for the job offer; everything else is done through US mail.

It takes a while. You have a list number that was fairly close to mine on the last exam and I took that in September of 2013 and got called for the agility in I believe September of 2014 .. And didn't get the call until July 2015 .. So you do the math. But it also depends on the needs of the...

A month to lose 60 lbs! If you find out how to do that, please share.. But yea they're strict on the weight issue.. What ever they told you to lose is how much they want you to weigh, not a pound more :/

GUYS! September class is a deff just don't know when it will actually start.. But hurry up so I can gain some seniority :D

It's cool man.. You meet a lot of new people. PT is no joke so get on your cardio game, and also you have a quiz everyday for about 13 days and it's a lot of studying! So stay on your game when it's your turn

Let's just say that a lot of people get passed the psych.. Even the crazy ones! Just don't answer false when it asks you if you love your mom! Lol

Nah they didn't specify that information just made comments that there will be a sept class..
