I'm a similar list number to you and haven't got anything further; investigator told me at intake to look out for medical letter by early July, so I wouldn't panic, I imagine they're focusing on filling the next class.

Hi all, I went May 6th for my intake and haven't gotten any further. I spoke with my investigator and she doesn't see anything either. I'm on exam #6003, list #51x. I've seen a few from 6003 that have done everything. I'm trying to figure out why I haven't gotten my medical or psych yet.

Patience my friend, patience. Those of us who have lower list numbers and a very small chance for July are done already but I know people in the 200s who haven't had their medical yet either nor their psych. I'm done but I'm 13X. I know 3 people in the 200s and 1 in the 400s and they haven't had their medical or psych yet.

I have patiences as this is the first time I have called my investigator since my intake, just thought it was odd I hadn't gotten anything further. I also believe I read back a few pages that someone with a list number of 400 had already had their medical n psych. Just curious.
 
Hey all. So I send an email, as I was instructed, about re taking my Physical agility after failing it.

I got a call a few days later. I was told that retake dates are automatically send out to people that failed after 3 months and I should get a letter in the mail around September-October.

Does this sound correct? I only asked since I was told I had to send an email in order to get a retake date.

They're calling people for the July Academy. A majority of the posts you see are those who are in exam# 5003 who have been going through the process since 2014.

If you're in exam 6003 gear up, your call could be right around the corner
 
You people that want to work FDNY make me wonder at why you'll wait so long to work in a non cutting edge system with subpar pay for the area. Granted, the benes aren't bad, but for COL the pay sucks.

Likewise with am.


So choose with whatever fits your schedule best.
 
So does anyone think it is possible to work a second job after graduating the academy? During the academy I have everything planned out for myself but after is what I'm most concerned about. My girlfriend and myself are expecting and I want to be able to provide the most for my child

At my private company, most of the guys work either private or for hospitals in different divisions. It's definitely possible especially if you mutual or work 12 hour tours.
 
Hello everyone. I'm new to the forum. Excited to get my career started in the FDNY. Took my physical agility not too long ago. Have to bring my cardio up since I couldn't get past the stair climb. Anyone have any tips?

Also, I never got a call about my drug test. I had no reason to fail it, but I never received a call about it. Do they only call you if something is wrong? I heard they called either way.

Good luck to all!

Welcome. So there are some options you can do. If your local gym has a stairmaster you can do that. Invest in either a weighted vest. Or grab two 10 Or 20 lbs dumb bells and hold them chest high while on the stair climber.

The thing with that is, if you don't keep your mind occupied in other ways sometimes, you're going to psych yourself out. What I did when I did the stair climber is hold on to the shoulder straps and song a song or two in my head to myself.

Sorry I'm not much help. Everyone is different and there are plenty of ways to work on cardio, that portion of the test is more than just cardio, it's leg endurance as well
