tomorrow I take my CVSA for a Sheriff dept in Ohio. I am going to take the "I don't give a shit" attitude, because if ANY modern law enforcement agency STILL relies on this bull, then I don't want to be a part of it anyway. It's their loss, not mine. I think I'd make a pretty damn good deputy. Here is what I have been told from CVSA veterans already on the force.

There is NO basis, basically they use it to weed you out and HAVE a reason and just to put the fear of God into you to try and mold you a little more before the academy. Meaning, lets say you make it thru all the processes that they have no control of (written exams, phys test, BG checks, etc) but they still don't want you for reasons like height, weight, age, demeanor, even race - this gives them a way out with no explanation other than 'you flunked'. So basically you gotta kiss ass prior to being hooked up and generally tell the truth common sense wise. EVERYONE has stolen, lied and maybe tried dope in their lives, they have to realize this, heck the dude giving the exam probably got high last weekend. So going in with a good attitude, confident and have the George Castanza motto (If you truly believe it, it isn't a lie) then I think I gotta good chance. If they haven't dug anything up thru the BG check, what's left? I'll let ya know. Are the results given before you leave, or mailed or what?

e1d, I can't predict whether your CVSA interrogator will let you know his "diagnosis" tomorrow. However, as with polygraph "testing," if you are spared a post-test interrogation, it's a good indication that you probably passed.
