this study book covers a much larger scope than the actual test I took. (which was 100 questions)The scenarios questions and the order type questions were the most helpul. There were no mapping questions or questions about the radio/computer questions at all. I did not need to know what a megahertz is! However, the mapping/ radio section maybe helpful later if I should get the job. Plus there is an entire section in the back of book with definitions and explanations.

I bought this manual because I was applying for a Public Safety Dispatcher position. I scored a 98/100 on the test, and it's because this study guide was more thorough than the actual test. It gave me a great idea of how to prepare for the interview too, highly recommend!

This book was very helpful in preparing for the Dispatcher test. It gave me a good general idea of what the test would be like.

I ended up taking the "Post" Dispatcher exam. I found some of the study guides were applicable, but most were not. The parts that did mirror the test were helpful in getting my mind frame in the right place while testing on a time limit. Also some of the instructions were good to know in advance, such as the timed verbal testing which is designed to eventually go so quickly that no one can keep up. Knowing this ahead of time helped my overall confidence while under the stress of testing. I recommend it as a general study tool to get your mind in the right frame for the exam, although I can't say I gained great new knowledge applicable to the test. It's like they say, it's not exactly a test that can be studied for.
