I need some help on the police test in hilo. Right now I am using a book called "Master the Police Officer Exam" created back in 2006. Some of the questions look pretty straightforward and some can be confusing whether which direction the person was last see running.

My question I dont want to waste my time study non-sense, this book was based off NYPD testing program. What are somethings should I look at study before the exam comes up and are there any study material for the hawaii police exam, the library did not have anything related to hawaii police testing.

If you can actually read and comprehend English, and pass a pee test, you're half way there.

Hawaii loves trick questions on their tests, fyi.

nope they change the requirement like 2-3 years ago so that you have to have a college degree now...so they are not going to ask questions like 50 questions give you a picture of someone you have to memorize in 5 minutes?

What curious what you mean by easy now, cause I had people tell me that for tsa testing but it was alittle difficult.

Do you have any criminology classes? Experience in military or LEO?

We need good cops. I wish you well.

Apparently, your English skills are high enough to qualify.

I was an agriculture major at UH-Hilo, so I dont have any classes in criminology.

No experience in the military due to having type 1 diabetes they wouldn't let me join.

What is LEO?
