LEO's: Can you use a calculator for the OACP Certificate of Results PATI Test?

[AdamBeau326]

Just curious if I can bring a calculator to for the mathematical questions on the PATI.

I'm thinking of testing through ATS and I'm fairly certain I can smoke the PREP test. Just worried about the math section.

Why don’t you call the testing center or police training facility in question? My guess? You’d probably be able to use a calculator for certain sections, but generally would not be allowed to use it for most of the sections, but scrap paper will be supplied. I mean, the math questions shouldn’t be too difficult to wear you have to use a calculator to solve the arithmetic.

You might want to e-mail them.

I'm really hoping I can, I know how to do the material- I'm just not able to do it in my head. Thanks though.. I'll email them tomorrow.

[Texaskid1]

OK. Good luck.

When I wrote it, it was scrap paper only. The math is basic. You shouldn't need a calculator anyways.

Lmao, thought this was a question for the zodiac and got confused real quick.

[mermaidia_lol]

Same lol

[AdamBeau326]

Don't mean to be rude but, could I have seriously answers only please?

I'm pretty stressed out this whole thing.

[mermaidia_lol]

I cannot help you. I don't know what that is.

[Ally247]

My bad

[Ally247]

I just looked it up real quick and it says you can't on the 2018 study guide. Don't know if it's the same as what you need. Sorry bout not being serious. Good luck either way.

[AdamBeau326]

Damn. Thanks though, cheers.

What's a LEO...

[AdamBeau326]

Law Enforcement Officer, I've been doing bylaw enforcement for a year now.. I'd like to apply for a cadet position however the department near me requires an OACP before I can apply.

Yeah

[AdamBeau326]

Yeah?

As in you can?

Can you source that please?
It's not that I don't believe you, I just want to make sure I don't get caught off guard. A COR attempt is $200.00.

I meant to say "No.."
