CVSA First time taker experience

[Kenneth Toste]

How do you download the "The Lie Behind The Lie Detector" I take my first CVSA in about a week and I just want to know what are some of the ways I can pass. I haven't had the best of luck on one Poly I took before. If anyone reads this post please respond give me some feedback.

I took this test and failed?
I was shocked , beside myself and completely confused!
i knew I was telling the truth so I didn't think I had anything to worry about! I was nervous because I did drigs the night before and I felt guilty .  So I thought that was it and I told in myself for no reason at all!
I was asked 21 questions some controlled and the others were about my daughters being sexually abused by my ex boyfriend 
To speak of any kind of sexual abuse out loud makes me internally upset, I've been to therapy for years because of my childhood.
This test is the worst f***ing in the world right now! The assistant states attorney wants to drop all 8 class x felonies that he threw at my ex for doing what he did to my daughters BASED on the stupid test. I know there's than he is leading on but he made a deal based on this test!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Actions will be takin. I am going to try to find out what I can do now since it's not admissible in court , how can he use it for a deal??? HELP

I took it to be a 911 operator.  Three questions that raised concerns: (1) Have you ever committed domestic violence? (2) Have you ever committed child abuse? (3) Do you socialize with criminal-type people on the weekends?  Um.  I grew up with domestic violence.  I have never been involved in a relationship and do not have children.  I don't socialize with anyone.    >:(I am also 5 feet tall and younger age weighed 110.  I am now 61 and I have three college degrees.  I was a court reporter for ten years, a legal assistant for 20, and a certified teacher.  How can I dispute these things?  I am taking this with a grain of salt as a tool to eliminate me.

Mary,

Sorry to hear of your situation. The CVSA is a joke. An utter, sick joke.

If you have a few minutes to spare, watch this video. It will tell you all you need to know about CVSA and the huckster who is responsible for it. Complete FRAUD.

It's disturbing to think that someone like you would have to deal with this machine in order to get a job.

If I were ever faced with one, I'd flat out tell the clown running it that I saw the video above. Might even bring it along on an iPad.

Be honest with you answers and you will get hired.  Nobody is perfect, and they are not looking for people that are perfect.  They want people with integrity and the ability to learn from past mistakes.  If you are responsible and respectful, then you are honest and forthright. If I was an employer, I would rather know I have hired someone less then perfect that is honest, then someone who comes across as too perfect and is deceitful.

I wish that was true. I took a polygraph almost 20 years ago. My friend and I were applying for the same agency. I told them everything, my friend did not. He passed and I did not.
