5.0 out of 5 stars In a class of its own, October 21, 2005

By	John Aguilar, Jr. (Colorado) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I closely scrutinized a half dozen cop test prep books and purchased another besides this one. 'Master the Police Officer Exam' is significantly above the others. Its greatest strength is that it seems to be written by someone who knows specifically about cop tests- not just tests in general. There is above and beyond detailed information not just on the many aspects and types of written exams, but also the different video tests. In addition, its many practice tests are authentic and are from different sources (NYPD and NCJOSI).

4.0 out of 5 stars Easiest to use, questions are in question, December 27, 2007

By	Adam J. Russo "Adam Russo" (Haddam, CT) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is by far the simplest out of the 3 other books I have already completed. However, comparing this one to the others these questions seem to be less likely to be on a police exam (at least for CT), and a lot of the questions asked are not clear. Good book if your starting out, but won't help that much if your test taking veteran like myself. Judgment and oral board questions are best in Larry Jetmore's police exam guide, and the Barron's police guide has excellent memorization and recognition tests that will definitely be on your test. I suggest you buy as many preparation guides as you can for just over $10 since it goes without saying how expensive these police exams are today. ($25-75)
