Hey thanks for the information. I took this exam this week and I passed with 74.

[@CareerVidz]

Hey, well done!! That's a great achievement. What's the best part of the Prison Officer selection process for you? Do you have to attend an assessment centre next?

[@1hayleybabe]

How long did it take you to find out if you pass?

[@UgochukwuNnadi]

For the 24 hoyr clock just minus 12 from anything that would be past the ams for a 12 hour clock
Example: 16:00 , 16-12= 4, the time is 4pm

[@woodsman9427]

so its military time basically

[@quickKid13]

I think the answer for Q 18 is 14 h if we take in consideration that the cella are locked during the night

[@aishaayata5488]

Question 10 makes no sense ? All long term and short term from Greek and orange wing are moved however 84 + 22 + 75 + 26 = 207 ? But on your video it says 185 ? The correct answer should be 492-207 = 285. Not 492 - 185=307.

[@rektorraymond4222]

That was my calculations too, I thought I was the only who noticed it

[@nyamedorking-david9590]

You are right. The correct answer is 285
