8) Well hello my fellow Polygraph/ CVSA skeptics, this afternoon I took my CVSA for a local agency. Let first start off by saying it was the the biggest waste of an hour in my life. I studied CM a while back antcipating either a polygraph exam or CVSA. Well I got there at 1pm showed up early in a  suit and tie. I was greated by a Conman by the name of Detective %^&%$. So we go into a standard office nothing special no two way mirrors nothing, he places a tape recorder and tells me i am being recorded.He gives me the whole intro about how accurate the test is 100% according to him, and IT WILL DETECT DECEPTION there is no way around that he says, if you have taken the test and used  CM you know in the back of your mind you are laughing it up..Well anyways he quotes a scene from a movie which i wasnt paying attention I was thinking about sex with my girlfriend for some reason MMMMM happy thoughts. He then takes my pre exam packet with all the questions that he would ask me. Mind you i filled the packet out with a few minor incidents form High School that was it. Well he goes over all the questions twice without the .50 cent microphone attached. I look him right in the eyes and answered the questions. Ok now he says he ready for the test he then says he has to calibrate the machine HAHAHA i really think he was playing solitare or something. 3 minutes later he then says clip this microphone onto your collar ok with a smile. He then goes over what relevant and irrelevant questions are. He says i am going to ask you to lie on 2 questions i frogot what they were because they were so retarded. Ok now the test of all test scary huh not a bit. He goes over all the questions like 20 or so relevant question then his lie questions i used the breathing CM the whole time. Bingo bango we got over the first series of questions now he goes into the second series of the same questions YEP-EEEEE during those questions he never re asked a question not once. After that he stops i was just waiting for him to falsely pull a question out and acuse me of some deception...NOPE never happened he infomred me to take the mic off and he went on about his military career or something. No post interview or anything he walked me out of the office and shook my handI thamked him didnt ask him how i did or ne thing.. So it was a very exciting experience CONING-THE CON MAN. the whole time during the test my mind was elsewhere except on the question and i will tell you that I was not 100% truthfull with the NAZI examiner. So everything worked as describebd just go in there and clear you mind, just as quoted on this website think of what you are going to do this week..CVSA what a joke I was actually excited to take the test i was all smiles dirving there because i was an armed individual. So if you all have any questions i have no problem answering them.  

Thanks knowledge is def. power, and i went in there armed as too anyone else who takes this joke of a test. It was a stand up comedy act as it was going on the whole test i was just laughing in my mind which made things at ease.

I just took my first CVSA the other day.  I was nervouse as hell but had a good feeling from all the info and stories I read about on here. I passed and got the job.  I could tell it was all a big act.  especially when they said they had to send my results off to the manufactorer to intrepret.

I actually have to take this cvsa in two days, can you give me any advice? I keep trying to rehearse my answers with my girlfriend, but she thinks that my answers are to robotic!

The only known CM's against CVSA are Psychological CM's. Albeit just another
misused and abused technology - it is difficult to impress the A-hole examiner
that you are a person of integrity. Best method is to be friendly, polite and quickly establish good rapport with the examiner. Become his NBF - after all,
one doesn't penalise yr friends....hopefully.

Or try screwing with his head. Tell him you've just recovered from acute laryngitis and it your throat is still sore and tender inside, so you're apologising upfront if you cough or choke. At odd times, when you respond (Yes / No )
do a choking-cough as you answer, followed by "sorry" - he'll get p'd off and
send you on your way with with a Green Tick.

I'm taking the test tomorrow and have passed the polygraph using mental focus and understanding the purpose of the test questions. I use a music and mental focus to null my lie and force a nervous idea to the test lie.
Now I will also include vocal excersizing my tone as I answere in the yesy and no. Singing is an advantage. But the bottom line is to be calm and in control the whole time. Don't listen to the expected scare tactacts they all use. Nothing is 100% with lie dectecting. They know it and what you to react to the fear of lieing.

I had to take one, yeah just like you said down to the tee. But my guest on is they said they had to send if off to a third party to be read also but I waited an waited for nearly 8 weeks or longer it seemed. An they said I didn't pass. Can they mess with it to read what ever they want it to say? Or however beings it's a joke. I think that they are just trying to push to nail people so they can make more money off of us?
