The POST may be scored by Stanard & Associates or purchased in a convenient self-score. An administration guide and applicant study guide are also. The National Police Officer Selection Test (NPOST) was created by Stanard & Associates as an entry-level basic skills test for law enforcement officers. The NPOST is used by a variety of municipal, county, state and federal agencies.

Just curious as to if Wisconsin departments have a popular test that a lot of departments use for testing / hiring? Minnesota seems to have a few different ones that we use, but not all departments even require a test during there hiring process.

Recently, I have applied or are in process of applying for a cpl different WI departments and see all they all require a test as part of the hiring process. Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Just want to be as prepared as possibe going into the test. I hate tests, unless they actually relate to law enforcement. There is a Wisconsin Personnel (name is something very similar) test seems to be the standard civil service test that many departments use. Departments also have the option to use their own test; I know Madison uses their own, which mainly tests your knowledge of vocab and grammar. The Wisconsin test is similar to many other civil tests though.

I just took a written in TN and it involved the memory, situational, vocab etc. I would pick up a couple different police test study guides. I know the Archo (spelling?) book helped me out a lot. You can also get books by Learning Express and Kaplan. ^^^^ Wisconsin Personnel Partners is what you're thinking of They are the predominate civil service test givers in Wisconsin. They do all the state jobs and many local agencies jump on the process too.

If you're looking for a cop job in Wisconsin, it is a good idea to go to the website and find where they are giving a 'Police Officer 1' test. The results will not only go to the agency that you applied with but they also get sent to a mailing list of several dozen other agencies that are looking for recruits. When I took the PO 1 test in 1993, I got several offers to apply from agencies I didn't even know were hiring.

Having said that, more and more local agencies are going with their own civil service tests so you'd really have to check with each individual agency. Several years ago we adopted our own test (I helped write it) as did many of our neighbors. Most civil service tests are pretty straight forward though. Observation & Memory, Reading Comprehension, Reasoning, Ethics, Law, and sometimes Math.

I have applied for a position with Fitchburg PD, and written test is scheduled for 11/13/10. It's a Wisconsin Personnel Partners exam and I'm hoping someone here would be able to provide some insight as to the types of questions to expect. I have taken the POST exam with MPD a couple of times, and agree that it is SO easy that it's just a formality. I believe my score was 18.2 and 18.3 respectively on the two times I took it (I think the max score is 18.9). I've subscribed to PoliceQuiz.com in the past and find that I do very well with the reading, comprehension, grammer, spelling and vocabulary. No problems there.

And

I'm a bit nervous though because I don't do well with 'logic' problems such as 'Which is the next in this pattern?' I am a very logical person in life, perceptive, etc. However, I can stare at that pattern all day and it does nothing but hurt my head! I analyze it in every way I can, yet still score low in this section.

I'm also not great at the memory section where it shows a list of 'WANTED' posters and then asks questions about them. Any experience with what I should expect to see on the WPP exam? I am going to PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE. But if anyone has tips, that would be greatly appreciated! I'm really hopeful that this will be 'my time' to finally make it.

Thank you very much! The WPP test depends on which version they're giving. Unfortunately, there's no way to tell you for sure. Most of them are basic civil service type of exams. They usually have a memory and observation portion where they give you a series of photographs to look at for a few minutes. They then take them away and hand out the test. The first section (and sometimes the last section) will ask questions about what was in the photos.

Then there's sections for reading comprehension, decision-making, ethics, and sometimes math. I recall one test had that pattern recognition part but I don't remember which one it was.

Well, I'm feeling MUCH better about the 'pattern' practice tests that I've been taking. I wasn't understanding what was being asked, and I now realize that I am to simply pick the answer which matches the question, NOT find the continuation of a particular pattern. I'm doing well on that one now. Quick question(s): On WPP tests are you allowed any paper/pen during the test? I assume that you can for the math portion, but is it just passed out for that section? Anyone rememebr how that works? In all the college math classes I've taken we always use calculators, but I assume that's out of the question on the WPP exams?

The police officer exam (POST) is always administered by an outside agency. The great majority of departments across the country contract out the written exam to a testing and assessment agency to avoid lawsuits. In the past, departments were being accused of only passing those applicants who had known relatives on the department. Today, that’s not the case since all exams are graded by an independent agency. The good thing about this is you can easily get a study guide from that company who will be administering the test.
