Testing to be a police officer

[89bonestockiroc]

I have been selected to go to testing for a police department.
Can anyone recommend any books or resources that I should study to be ready for it?
Is there any place to read up on rules of the law and things like that? I appreciate any ideas that you have.
Thanks

They won't ask you anything about the laws, so don't waste your time with that. The best advice I can give is go to a bookstore and purchase two books. One is a civil service exam practice booklet. The other is a police sergeant exam book. Combined, those two books should cover just about anything you'll run into on the test.

Thank you very much. I am off to look for those books now.
I just have to do good on that test.
Thanks again.

Yeah, you have to rank high enough for them to even look at you. But the hardest part is surviving the background.
