Hello all, I just wanted to let you all know that I have my polygraph the other week. The examiner said results could not be shared, but he also stated that he "did not see anything that he was concerned about." So I think I can feel safe in assuming I passed. I read TBTLD numerous times and thought of hundreds of possible scenarios. I will be more than happy to share my experience, and answer any questions you all may have. It wasn't long ago I was in your shoes worrying about this piece of s***test.

Well, the order was switched up. No baseline was established and he ran 3 different charts. The first two questions were is your name chimmychong and do you intend to lie. After that it switched up. But here are the questions I can remember...
1. is your name _____
2. do you intend to lie during this examination
3. have you lied on the background packet
4. other than what you have told me have you ever stolen anything since the age of 16
5. have you ever used illegal drugs
6. have you ever sold illegal drugs
7. have you ever possessed illegal drugs in order to sell them
8. have you lied during this examination
Most of the questions can be found on George's post about the LAPD questions. They were all very similar to that

Thanks Ark. Yeah most of the questions were dedicated to drugs. There were 18 questions total on the actual test itself. I had all the tubes, blood pressure cuffs, and the GSR detectors, but also the electronic pad that is supposedly able to catch the anal contraction CM. The examiner was pretty cool and helped calm me down a lot. If I can give anyone some advice it would be this...... treat it like an interview!!! If at all possible try and connect with the examiner on a personal level. This will ease the tension in the room and possibly put you in the examiner's good books from the start. I never employed cm's due to him sitting and staring directly at me. I just stared at the wall, thought about different crap like the drive home or the gym, and kept my breathing as consistent as possible.

Yeah, I kept that in mind the whole time and just played the game. They would try and set me up and I just let them think I was pouring my heart and soul out but the entire time I was calling them out in my mind. I wasn't comfortable trying to use CM's without any proper training. Doing them by myself in a mirror and doing them while actually being tested are two different things.
