BP exam

[BoJackUSMC]

Hey everyone, I just wanted to tell you guys I have passed my CBP exam and my score was 85. I am not sure if that score is included with my military service or not. We were told veterans get 5 addition points. I am one stop closer to achieving my dream. My dream is to become a U.S. Marine, earn a college degree, and become a Border Patrol. I just received my AA business degree and I already served my country as a Machine gunner in the corps. I just have one more goal left. I hope CBP takes interest in me and gives me a chance to proof myself to them.

An 85 will get you a T.O. so don't worry about it. Make sure you stay in shape and if your smart go on a ride along, it will go a long way for your oral boards.

The 85 is with your veterans preference points. Funny, that's the same score I got.

Wasn't the artificial language portion fun?

I'm currently in the background phase with them. My ultimate goal is to make Bortac!

Good luck!

How long does it take to get results back?

[BoJackUSMC]

it took me about one week and good job.
my score says 85 but (not veteran points adjusted) so I am guessing they will add my veteran 5 points when I show them my DD214 or so.

If you have anymore questions about CBP ... feel free to ask

I saw on the webpage that we are going to be accepting more applications the 14th of next month. Think we are taking on another 200-400 officers for the southern borders

Edit: Err I just read your post a little closer lol. Cant help you much with BP. Either way those 200-400 additional officers included BP as well

I just took the test here in Fresno in mid late September and got a 101 on it. Pretty easy test but Ive always had a knack for languages. That part was too easy.

But I haven't heard anything from them yet. I suppose all I can do is wait patiently.

What date did you get your NOR (Notice of Results)? I tested on 9/2, got my NOR on 9/10, my Tentative Offer on 9/27, and just got notice today that my Oral Board is scheduled for 11/15.
