Sgt Results in Your E-Mail
Yup, they're out there.
Now what?
Sgt's are up to strength, so no classes for a while? Or are they going to over-promote a first class in anticipation of a Lieutenants class? But Lieutenants are up to strength, too.
At least we've got some results.

This is such bullshit. I have a dozen years on and studied my ass off. I wonder how they juked / weighted it to get their clout ass pets in. Some kind of joke
Anyone know how high they went on the last few lists?
Cut off under 300?
Northside - - - Did you get the letter you were expecting for 3 decades.
Call central if you did not.
can we please make a class of EVIDENCE TECHNICIANS NOW?WAY,WAY SHORT!many on list waiting for opportunity!
I scored #10. I studied my ass off and did it legit.
Ouch
They have our rank, but it does not say out of how many. I scored in the high 700s with a score of 103. I studied my ass off. I am just going to accept the fact that I am retarded. Does anyone know how many were ranked?
So how exactly do you get a double decimal point score? If they ask you to list 5 things you should get 5 points right?
You under 350 you have no chance,
Thank management picks!
Last list they promoted 416 off the list I know this for a fact cuz I was a few out. The previous lists they got to over 500
Good luck to all that make it legit. Remember where you came from, and if you're known as a jagoff, now is your chance to rebuild your image and give back and mentor the way you wish someone did for you- but didn't.
I agree, i studied my ass off--- and scored poorly
It's unfortunate that we have all chosen to reserve ourselves for the bull$^*! that this job offers. The test as well as the results are not surprising.
Great job to those of you that scored in the top 300!
325
Congratulations to all who did well! To those that didn't do as well as they hoped, keep your heads up. Be proud of your efforts...you tried to do it the right way.
If I get promoted that's more money right?

im very disappointed at the results. There is so much BS that God himself doesn't know how the results were calculated and manipulated. I took the 2002 test without studying and ranked 880. Now i study my ass off in 2 study groups and rank 2000. Total bullshit but at least now I can retire in the next couple years. Good luck to everyone
I studied my butt off and I am proud of my score. My score belongs to me and I didn't cheat anyone. I did well but not well enough to make it to the list. To all of the others who made it legitimately good for you. I am happy for you.
I'm 60 years old and I landed 103 on the list. Should I buy my white shirts?
Anyone without clout believing they would take the exam, do well and get promoted are kidding themselves and wasted their time. The percentage of being honestly promoted (for lack of the better word) is 1.5%.
Usually 300 and below you should be safe, from 300-400, you will be on the bubble. Anything above 400 consider it a miracle and a gift, you lucked out!

Last test 419
Before that 368
Before that 556.
Above results after 1997
If the emails are correct.....
I studied alone, no Bernstein, no special study class, no subject experts, no political clout and I scored in the high
80's.........
Well I really thought I did better than that.
early 2000 sgt exam 368
last sgt exam around 434
Over promote? That would make sense, SCC. I have been complaining about that for the longest time. Promote in the wrong direction, too. Promote dicks, just to promote Sergeants, so you are constantly short in the ranks. Makes more sense to promote Sgt's, 1st, but they never do that...
What was the total number of coppers who took the test?
Last list was 421 off the list. The 421 does not include merit picks. I will assume, based on past tests I've taken for sgt in my past 26 years if your rank without merit is under 400 you will get made. I took this test along with every other sgt test and not made the cut.. 662 on this one. Retirement in 3 years or so. It's been a fun run as a blueshirt. To all under 400 on the list good luck. You will not make it as quick because of merit but at least u will make it.
I'm kinda confused on the scoring. What's with the decibel thing an y not just a straight score. I guess they had 2 do that 4 the clouted kids huh.? Oh well, squad let me get an event numbr 4 this post... If u will.
How is a score of 96% a rank of 2000. Where they do that at.?
Well, I didn't do as well as I expected I would. However, I wish all the best to those who scored well.

Scored in the top 37.
Oh wait.... I am already a Sgt.

score under 300 is a lock
If you're not in the top 300 forget about it.
14 years on, didn't study much, ranked in the low 180's.
420 off of score
Yes I am 1357...but I got clout so 1st class of 2015 here I come.
66 is a secret code word for merit. Got it from a guy that made the merit packages.

Sorry to say you probably didn't study hard enough. Better luck next time, sport! Thanks Dr. Bernstein!
350?
When is the next Bernstein class? I really,really,really want to be a sgt.
How did you do scc?
What percentage is merit?
A dozen people I know scored better than 300 and they've already been promoted off the old test. So everyone's rank # may go down as a result of the previous tests promotions. Ur rank may get better as a result. Good luck to all who studied and a big FU to all merit hacks!!!!!!
How many people took part 2?
I received no email. This city always disappoints!
How many officers actually showed up and took part two of the test?
Still no dicks test...wtf is this department doing? We have enough do nothing sergeants already. How about some E.T's too.
I must have done so bad they didn't bother to email me my results.....
Every smart street cop I know who studied still scored low. This test is bullshit. People in HQ and with clout win again!
To the odpo, wearing the yellow shirt, driving the bubble impala. Go fuck yourself! The tantrum you threw in the restaurant on Chicago Ave, over 52 cents should have been enough to embarrass you, and your friend. But throwing in that you are "the police, too", for everyone to hear, now brings the embarrassment to the rest of us. Go fuck yourself! You are lucky I'm not posting your name.
Studied my butt off. Thought i did well. Boy was I wrong.
OT: But for a Minute Hi Kids. 10G here. On furlough and just arrived Bourbonnais for a week of training camp and then visiting a few other NFL training sites. It's great BSing with fans from different teams. After hopefully a nice season will be cruising again in Feb. Anyways got my score on exam. Um like between 200-217. Yea. Not good enough ton make it but WTF. Hope a lot of U guys n gals did better. If not it could be worse. You still have a career and more important a LOVING FAMILY. Not to mention our Great Family-SCC-Whom I feel is the BEST! Keep heads up guys n gals and SCC keep doing what you're doing. See U at start of NFL. Some comments last season stated I rock. No I don't. SCC ROCKS-YOU DA BEST.

365 / 2002 test
416 / 2006 test
Gee. Some coppers told me they didn't even have enough time to finish the test and yet they scored in the top 100!!!! Really!!! Yeah, it's all legit.
They got to 416 on the old list.
The test before that they got to 386.
So unless you scored under 300 on this new test nothing is a guarantee.
So, much for that I was 445 on the previous list
And 490 on the list they just took down. This test I am 1405 so I guess I am a blue shirt for ever. I can blame the merit for not getting made on the first two tests, but now the only way I can get made is by merit. No clout so thats that. Just out of curiosity I wonder if any one who was made merit on th previous 2 test had a better score then the scores that I had?
Under 500 u should get made
1993 test went to about 450.
wait ,wait for it. first wave of lawsuits from them that does deserve it. just like the 111, term for those to become CFD. except soon after making it the became the 109.
I scored 14,000.... dead last
Last list cut off was 425
According to this test I'm legally retarded, blind and have no hands
Oh well..the results are in. I guess I'll be a blue shirt for life! Shit..being a blue shirt ain't so bad..and besides the blue shirts are easier to keep clean!
Anyone without clout believing they would take the exam, do well and get promoted are kidding themselves and wasted their time. The percentage of being honestly promoted (for lack of the better word) is 1.5%.
Bullshit on the above post myself and many others that I know got promoted to Sgt and Lt off of our test scores and NO CLOUT. If we had clout we would NOT still be in patrol.
Im 62 and scored 75 didn't study and didn't finish half the questions,then I retired, IROCC totting gat strapped infra red laser beams,everything isn't what it seems,love it when you call me big papa!
If the emails are correct.....
I studied alone, no Bernstein, no special study class, no subject experts, no political clout and I scored in the high
80's.........
Yup that works, I did the same and scored high enough to get promoted to Sgt and Lt. Good Luck

Don't know... Ask the kid who is one out when they take the list down so u can be a sgts for 6 months before u get forced out. But 103 won't get made for at minimum 2-3 years.. But with that being said it's a very good score.. Just think about others if it's within a year or less of you being forced out
Under 200, thanks Doc Stein!
I did not study one bit and took the test still inebriated from the previous evening. I landed #53. Suckas!

Stop with mis information. If your ranking TODAY is 400 or under you WILL make sgt. I say this because you will jump about 20-50 spots throughout the life of the test due to people quiting, dying, retiring, turning it down, not enough school or people already made sgt from the last test... History says 300-400 is still very safe.. 400-450 is getting a little shakey.. If your over 400 right now it's not out of the question but not looking too good
score: 97.such n such.
rank: 1962.
I have so many to thank for such a wonderful score.
Thank you: safe passage, 26th&cal, bridgeview, branch courts, juvy court, impound court, rotating watches, mando ot, summer details, my undergraduate degree completion program, my son, my daughter, my wife, my parents, my sister, my non-police friends, my in-laws, my neices, my nephews, my "chicago" house, my boat, and most of all - myself.
If it were that important to me, I would have found the time to study and prepare for the exam.
I guess it wasn't that important.
have they ever gone to the thousandths decimal point to rank results before?
i'd like to see the "whole" number list and compare...that would be interesting

Maybe if you didn't write like a 16 year old girl sending a text message you would have done better. And decibels are NOT the numbers after the period

They do that for the entitled ones... The same was done on the last canine test, but don't worry, it's all legit kid!
SMH... Man I can't wait to hit my 20 year mark and put this politically corrupt ass backwards job in my rear view.
Key number is 400. Under that and you've got stripes one day
I studied my nads off and ranked over a thousand. Something is not right here but I'll just accept it and move on. The only other hope is that, just like everything else that has come out lately, it'll get rescinded and changed and I'll score #1! Hahaha, fat chance of that! Anyway, good job to those that did well and I'll work harder next time.
All I can say is I hope one more class from the 2004 test.
One day as some of you get more time and score so close to being made you will understand.

Get some used white shirts from some retiring sergeant; you won't be needing them for long. One or two will do.
Last list went to 416...the one before that went to 365....anyone under 300 should start purchasing your white shirts... Anyone between 300-400, wait & see. Congrats on all that did well!
bitch bitch bitch-If you got the material and the subject matter you did well. Depends did you get 60%-70%-80%-90%-100- Your score reflected. I studied got about 80%-score 870
Who cares. I just want to retire and forget about all this crap. This department sucks almost as much as this city.

I have never understood why cops pay to go to a study group. Just memorize the study material given to you. Save your money to buy dinner and drinks for the connected boss. That will get you promoted on CPD.
You could Rule 14 the entire city hall over this test. Something stinks
I scored #10. I studied my ass off and did it legit.
Too bad they will only promote 12 off of that list. 3 merit and 9 from the list. You're still a loser.

I'm guessing you're confused by a lot of things. Christ, you're an adult complaining about a test score while using numbers in place of words. This might be a good indicator as to why you did so poorly.
Oh well I won't make sgt, but if VRI keeps up I'll make just as much money as one.
didnt study a single minute and i'm under 350.
7/24/2014 06:53:00 PM
God I'm glad there are dumb fucks like you. I studied, I will be in the first class, and I will make about 20-30k per year more than while you wait to get maybe promoted. Thanks for the boost dummy.
I was in the last Sergeant's class. I was in the high 300's. I took this test, I ranked in 60's.
I wish all of you luck and feel for those that are frustrated by the promotional system and hoped that they would score better.
You won't get any B.S. "Study Harder" stuff from me. I feel for people and quite a few of my friends studied very hard only to not score well enough to be promoted.
Good luck to those that did.
This time around, I have to say thank you Dr. Bernstein because I did not do any studying beyond sitting in his class and listening.
To those that scored higher than in the 60's you moved up at least one spot because I was promoted off the last list.
This test was difficult and some really great people did not do as well as they had hoped.
Some know who this is and I feel for you guys and know all of you would have been great supervisors.
There is a dark sinister force holding me back. They are responsible for my failure.
It couldn't possibly be that I didn't keep up with my orders as they came out. It couldn't possibly be that I didn't put in more time studying than the next guy that did better. It couldn't possibly be that I am not that bright.
No sir. THEY are out to get ME.
Remember, in the real world it's all merit. At least here you have a shot. Score well enough and they have to make you.
i know of several sgts (4 so far..) that just got made in the last two classes that scored under 300..that will bring your #'s down a bit.
7/24/2014 09:46:00 PM that means you did not study and you have prob been out of patrol a long time.

What is e-mail?
Although I applaud the efforts made by so many while preparing for the exam, some of you are stupid. Yes, it's true hard work does not necessarily equate to intelligence. Some of you are fortunate to have been hired on the CPD and may have slipped through the cracks. Indeed some will continue to move up due to nepotism and political connections. Yet, that does not equate to intelligence and it is also what is wrong with the CPD. Those who are stupid and still become the boss due to a corrupt "merit" promotional system that leads to a corrupt exempt appointment. Yes your stupid and sometimes in charge. So, if your 4000 out and worked hard and studied everyday, your stupid and a hard worker but don't deserve the promotion for all the same reasons you complain about the quality of current leadership and their lack of intelligence. Stop equalizing the intelligence of the policy makers by way of a flawed merit system and start promoting the smartest people. Some people are stupid it a simple truth that needs to be acknowledged. It doesn't mean your a bad person, or not motivated or not a hard worker, it simply means your talents lie elsewhere and your not suited for the master minding business.
I scored in the 480's. What are my chances?
7/25/2014 12:53:00 AM

Chances are slim but not zero. I've seen lists in the past where over 480 from he list were made. This list 420 were made... Last test about 400 made. Test before that almost 500.. So it dependsz. What will help you is that your number of 480 today will get down to about 430-450 by the time they get down the list with eliminations. Good luck, you're you get it because it's. Tough number to have. Good luck
Gotta love these jag bags posting their number without leaving their name.

It sounds like you haven't learned much in your "dozen years" on the job.
If someone that took this test and was subsequently promoted in the last two Sgt classes, will they still be ranked in the current list?
Scored just over 500 on the 2006 test. This time I scored near 2000. The test told me I got much dumber in the last 8 years.
Where can I see this list?? Never got an email
Remember ladies and gentlemen, your score foes not define you. If you work on the street and have integrity in your daily performance then you are a success. Over the years you see great Officers get promoted but the classes are always peppered with career insiders who learn the game of testing; the PUNCH words that dictate the correctness of the answer. Then add in merit and the process implodes on itself with weak middle management. What happens is this; not only do the weak links have to learn the rank, they gave to learn the job. The day to day grind has nothing to do with punch words. That they will discover. Remember, house cats plan and alley cats implement and work the plans to functionality.
Don't be shamed if you score poorly and do not let it ruin your moment. Do your best at what you are best at and laugh at the buffoons. In most cases they will need your wisdom before you need theirs.
Stay safe

I get it. It's a joke. But you actually think we have 14000 people on this job? You'll get meritorious for sure....Dont worry about your test scores.

I guess it wasn't that important.

If your family was as important to you as your boat (code for south side hillbilly, like an above ground swimming pool is) you would have studied hard enough to get promoted and bring home to them more income. I'm just saying...
Here's the reality.
Everyone knows good bosses, everyone knows bad bosses. Some people are book smart, some people are street smart.
Judging from the promotion lists that have been leaked lately, I've seen awesome bosses who are merit, and jags who made it on score. And vice versa.
If you look out for the troops, I really don't care how you made it.
Awesome comment overheard at the station.
If you scored well, it just means you studied the answers.
Which got me to thinking. Would you prefer an officer you consider a "good guy" to be made by merit or would you prefer a boss' kid who made it by score through a secret study group?
You never know....
To the guys who scored 96% and 98% and didn't make it....
96/132 is 72%
98/132 is 73%
Take a basic math class and you you won't sound like such an idiot.
Pick yourself up people, welcome to CPD, lots of disappointments ahead. You did well, but somebody else knocked you out by getting one more question right than you. One question booted you to number 1000. Keeping pushing until the next one! Good luck
11 YOJ. Studied hard for both parts ($900 wasted on Bernstein for part 2); 83 on part 1 and 103.1513 on part 2; ranking in the 700's. I'd like to see how far my ranking would have increased if pass/fail for part 1 was cut off legitimately at 70%.

TIED!
Numbnuts only way u could have scored 98% is if you scored 129.50827 out of 132.1513..so there now you know why you will not be a sgt. Any time soon...

Oh well I won't make sgt, but if VRI keeps up I'll make just as much money as one.

I was thinking the same, but with Lts pay.
I'm #1 and I didn't even take the test. Yes!!!!
Anyone know how high they went on the last few lists?
7/24/2014 04:31:00 PM
Last test 419
Before that 368
Before that 556.
Above results after 1997

Which makes sense since the last two tests really had no other testable positions made, I'd take a detective spot before a sgts spot.
Every smart street cop I know who studied still scored low. This test is bullshit. People in HQ and with clout win again!
There are a lot of no-clout cops who will make sgt from this list.
I have a lot of respect from street smart cops. I have learned a lot from them. However, please remember that there is no way to do well on the exam without having a firm grasp of what is in the General Orders, State Statutes, etc.
The test measures what the law and the orders state. It is simply an academic exercise.
Often what is stated in the orders and what we actually do on the street are two totally separate things. Knowing the difference will take a test taker far in the test ranking.
Just my two cents.
if you live in the 11th or 19th wards you will be promoted if you live in either Edison park, norwood park or oriole park you are out of luck.
I just had to show up for the second part , Thank god for family!!!
all police tests are legit just ask the current police chief of Naperville, he will tell if you work hard and study then marry into a wealthy politically connected replublican family , you too can retire as the deputy chief with a 100k pension then the next become Naperville assistanst village manager at 140k a year do that for 5 years and then comeback as the police chief at 160k a year plus your police pension of a 100k it is all on the up n up even in Naperville.
I didn't take the test,can I still get promoted?
No need to score well, just bring Chief RT his tea and oatmeal and he will promote you, right JF ?
Geez louise fellas...just be glad to be a part of CPD. Thats more than enough for me...
Oh well back to the tac team
They should just post the list. I don't see any harm in that. Post it on fop website.
There is no inherent risk or confidentially by posting the list. Or if they want to narrow the list by saying, off this list the city will promote up to number 450. So there is no confusion. People know exactly where they stand.
Just some thoughts.
Not top 300 forget about it under 300 add 30% to your score because the retarded clout babies are getting promoted before you! And if your over 300 and spent a fortune on those stupid study groups go jump off a bridge the whole test is a scam anyway calculating the score is more top secret than most military secrets.
I didn't study so I got what I deserved. My question is this: according to FOP they went to 416 on the list. What about the guy or girl who was 417 but had his/her spot taken by the Sup's driver, who was then deemed ineligible for a merit promotion?
Rh
Completely disappointed and going to kill self. Congrats to all who scored well.
I am a little confused, if I have been buying my clout heavy sgt. Coffee everyday, and I hired someone to put together my bullshit merit resume,that I was told to put together because I think I am a great copper. What do I do now, you help me Sgt, I am confused.Should I resubmit it, I don't know can someone help me.
Thank god I got credit for spelling my name right...However points deducted for wrong badge number...haha fuck it good luck srgt. Lets see how many of you will be changing the world now
Wow big words for the new fancy shirts getting promoted...hey dip shit if some of us didn't score good there are some personal issues there for us...However does not mean your gods gift to this department for becoming a srgt. Good luck on your new 20k increase and all the bullshit with it...remember you were a po too...you didn't get that white after after arriving on a falling star dip shit!!!

No. You won't be a Sgt. long enough to qualify for Sgt. retirement pay. Save your money for Obamacare Gramps.
Anyone without clout believing they would take the exam, do well and get promoted are kidding themselves and wasted their time. The percentage of being honestly promoted (for lack of the better word) is 1.5%
That's me 1.5℅. I don't owe anybody anything.

I had the same question, How can two people have the same score? I guess I'm not the only one.
The Hand of GOD Almighty could come down from Heaven and anoint those who should be made Sergeant...
...and you will still get a lawsuit over the results from the Devil represented by his in house attorneys, Lovey & Lovey,
It is decimal not decibel... Silly bastards! Not where is that mission box again? Congrats!
anyone know what district/unit got the most people in the top 300?
All of this bitching about "I spent $1500 on Bernstene / Roberts / any other study group!"
Shit! That's a decent amount of money. I don't know, maybe next time put that money in an envelope and hand it to tour Commander, Deputy or Alderman... It might actually get you on the list one way or another.

According to the 1985-88 Sergeants Exam, due to STNDARDIZATION of results I dropped 17%, my given efficiency grade (Beat Car Patrolman ) was 97% was changed to 68%. At that grade the department would have ben trying to fire me. Years later I retired as a Lieutenant.
132.1513 is the atomic weight of the clout atom.

Nothing you said makes any fucking sense. I fully understand what a Sgt does, that's why I took the test and studied.
Like I said guy, thanks for the boost.
Gotta love these jag bags posting their number without leaving their name.
7/25/2014 08:06:00 AM
Excellent point, Mr. Anonymous. What number are you?
I may be a handjob but that's SGT. Handjob to you beotch. Now go back into Mom's basement and cry about your 1100 ranking and how the test was rigged. Maybe you can be a merit beotch.
Po for life. Once again working hard for 20years no bad time knowing the job and how to treat subordinates with respect and like people got me nowhere. Maybe its time to take my knowledge to a small town where they would love to have me as a boss. But then again look at those who were qualified and also liked by the troops that were passed over for supt and now they retired. Writings on the wall
003 has 5 ppl in the top 300 and 2 ppl under 100
I'm 60 years old and I landed 103 on the list. Should I buy my white shirts?
short answer. NO

===============================
Sorry, SGT. HANDJOB!
Made Sgt off the 1993 test, while your mommy was probably still wiping your ass.
I know some good people that did really well, so at the first 2 classes are going to pump out some good Sgt s.
anyone know what district/unit got the most people in the top 300?
014 had some top scores most I know 4 male whites and a Hispanic female well above 300. Two males are smart yet taken care of during whole 5 year career. the other two males are partners not surprised they did well the female helped me study so that one was legit.

Not true. Pension is based off the average salary for the 4 highest consecutive years of the last 10 years of service. Do the math junior and let us all know when you've reached a total of 4 consecutive years.
I scored in the 480's. What are my chances?
7/25/2014 12:53:00 AM
$$$$$$$$$$
Chances are slim but not zero. I've seen lists in the past where over 480 from he list were made. This list 420 were made... Last test about 400 made. Test before that almost 500.. So it dependsz. What will help you is that your number of 480 today will get down to about 430-450 by the time they get down the list with eliminations. Good luck, you're you get it because it's. Tough number to have. Good luck
7/25/2014 08:02:00 AM
One other problem. If they do get that far down on the list, you'll be waiting about 8 years to make it.
I did not study one bit and took the test still inebriated from the previous evening. I landed #53. Suckas!
7/24/2014 10:50:00 PM
Better check again drunk. The email says #530. Sucka!
God I'm glad there are dumb fucks like you. I studied, I will be in the first class, and I will make about 20-30k per year more than while you wait to get maybe promoted. Thanks for the boost dummy.
7/25/2014 03:32:00 AM
No you won't because I'm a detective and you're just a dick.
Oh well I won't make sgt, but if VRI keeps up I'll make just as much money as one.
7/25/2014 02:41:00 AM
Yeah, if you work every single one of your days off all year long. I see you're a real genius.
I took the test and I studied my butt off. I studied so much to find out it was all for nothing. I scored 2100. I would love to know how they graded these tests because all the answers I gave were real life, real scenario based answers. And no, in the questions that asked to get discipline on an officer I answered all of them to pull them aside first and talk to them. In real life you don't automatically jam somebody up. This city and department is crooked. I work hard and I answered my questions honestly, not what some test grading college kid or test maker thinks the answer should be. I deserve to be sgt and promoted instead of some girl who sits inside all day or some kid who took special classes. This is real life so I answered real life. This place sucks. This job sucks. This department sucks and IO solutions who made this test sucks. I don't wanna be sgt anyways
Oh well back to the tac team at Ohare unless mommy or daddy can pull some strings to make u a sgt.. LOL

Wrong, exempts need 3 years to qualify for their pension. Everyone else it is an average of your last four years non-OT salary. His first sgt's check ups his pension.
For all of those that are disappointed in their results, take some solace in the fact that a detective test is supposedly coming down the road. It is a way better job than sergeant and you can make more money than sergeants too. Take it from somebody who has had both jobs. Study hard for that one.

7/25/2014 09:12:00 PM
Oops! Sorry. I checked my e>mail again and my rank is 53.5 because you must have more seniority than me.
The scoring of this test is strange. I believe 4700 took the final exam. If the top score is 132 then a score of 66 would put you at rank order of 2350. How can a score of 94 put you at 2692? The test must have been scored as they saw fit which actually means as WHO they saw fit. Makes no sense. Good luck to all who made it in the top 300.

im very disappointed at the results. There is so much BS that God himself doesn't know how the results were calculated and manipulated. I took the 2002 test without studying and ranked 880. Now i study my ass off in 2 study groups and rank 2000. Total bullshit but at least now I can retire in the next couple years. Good luck to everyone
