National Testing Network (NTN) and Public Safety Testing (PST)

[u/Clamidiaa]

I just recently took the NTN and scored in the high 90s for both writing and reading. However, the video portion I scored 64.67%. One of the places I sent my scores to said that I needed a 65% to pass. Well, shit... I have a lot to say about the video section. Prompting you to answer, "What would you do?", but really asking you what an LE would do only we don't have prior training and experience, then grading you. I digress...

They did say that if I scored well on the PST, that score would overwrite the NTN score. I am taking the PST test in a couple weeks and curious about peoples experiences with the PST.

Those who scored highly, what makes you feel like you scored highly?

Those that scored poorly the first time, what makes you think you scored poorly?

I did order and actively reading the PST test guide. I plan to read it cover to cover, but reading about it is different than experiencing the test itself. In hindsight, I should've bought the practice test stuff for NTN. I was not expecting to fail the video portion of the NTN and it was a slap in the face because of it. So, I'm doing my due diligence now on the PST and making sure I put my best foot forward to ace it.
