FDNY Fire Academy

They're the best of the best. It is roll call at the New York City Fire Academy on Randall's Island. The first class of the day gets ready for PT: push-ups, sit-ups, and a mile-and-a-half run through buckets of pouring rain. They're called probies, a class of 305 men and women who are two weeks away from becoming New York City's newest firefighters. Their training ground, the academy, looks a movie set, complete with mock storefronts, high-rise apartments, and burn rooms that ignite at the push of a button.

[@engine2truck6]

Yep. A 39 year old man need not apply....But women who can’t pass the agility are OK. Bull crap

Guys help me out what is college for fdny I’m a 12 grader and I’m graduating soon

[@stephenhusak6098]

You can take fire science in college. However it is not needed for FDNY. Just wait for next written test and take it. Start taking prep classes for it . Meanwhile hit the gym hard. Order a 40lb weight vest and get on a stair master machine. There are books out there and videos of what the PT portion of the test is.

*"120lbs of equipment"* 😂 Equipment doesn't weigh 120lbs
