    SFPD hopeful at 38

    Hello to All!

    I am scheduled for my written exam tomorrow. I have been studying and taking sample tests. I feel confident, but I know this is only the beginning. If you have any suggestions, I would appreciate it.

    Are there any others who have started at my age or older? I would love to hear from you.

    Thanks!

    When I went through the academy one of my classmates was 50. Unfortunately although he was a great guy he broke his wrist preparing for the "Red Man"...

    Shoot you are the same age as my wife, you will do fine! Good luck and if you have any questions feel free to drop me a line.

    Welcome. I worked with lots of cops who started in their mid to late 30's and even a few in their 40's. You won't have a problem.

    Update

    Thanks for your replies and support. I passed my written in July, and I just passed the physical agility yesterday. Now, it is on to the oral exam in October. Does anyone have any tips to prepare?

    Thanks again!

    I just also passed the physical agility, was wondering what were the passing score? I failed out of ACSO academy in the 16th week had scored no lower then 97 and then failed report writing with a 76%. Is sfpd academy 80% like acso?
