*Show up early. Be the first to come and the last to leave. Ask if they need help setting up or cleaning up.
*Dress appropriately. Military T-Shirts are a must (if prior service). Otherwise no logos or T-Shirts that say or depict anything.
*Do well on the test. Keep doing pushups/situps until they stop counting or the time runs out- not when you hit the max.
*When you're done, help motivate others to do well. Try to stand out as a team player, not an arrogant prick.
*Keep everything you say and do professional...the graders will be looking at you, making notes about you and even be asked from other officers "who do you think stood out?"
Other than that, stretch- eat a full meal tonight and a little bit of something in the morning. Don't brush your teeth in the morning either (the flouride will make you puke). Do about ten pushups, ten situps and jog in place a bit just prior to the test to warm up...situps are usually where people fail in the Physical Test because they treat it like a gym instead of a test...do them FAST. Smack your back off the mat and bounce back up, drop down and do it again...knock them out. Don't burn yourself out in the run in the first leg....save it to the end.
Good luck
Good advice for the upcoming physical portion, thanks. However, this next step is just the psychological exam, that's what I'm immediately focusing on passing, haha.

Be honest, don't lie and answer the questions as best you can. Don't let them get on your nerves.A couple days away from my psych eval for a LE position in Oregon - anybody out there have any wise words of advice?
I've been a practicing psychologist for more than 25 years. I've done thousands of psych evals. . . . . .
