From the looks of it, they spread pieces of paper with our names on them on the floor, then they have a midget covered in honey roll over those pieces of paper, then they have another blindfolded midget take the names off of the other midget’s body and that’s how they get our names. I’m 16xx...no OPA invite.

Sounds bout accurate 😂

I think so.  Being that so many people took the test and lots of us share the same score, they needed some way to organize the list # order besides our names, so they’re using the 5th digit of your SS# for your spot.  

 

I checked for my name in the City spreadsheet and there’s like 8 other people with the same first and last name as me.  lol.  

I read they go by who applied for the exam first as a tie breaker if people share the same score

Received my letter to take the OPA this past Friday, going in to take it on May 2nd at 1:15 and my list # is 33xx. When I emailed the exams unit on April 9th asking when I might be asked to take the OPA, they said within the next few months and I’ll be going in less than a month after emailing them so maybe that’s a good sign for anyone on the list who is not too far behind me. I wonder how long after until I get called for pre employment 🤔. That’s assuming I pass the OPA lol. Good luck to everyone else in this process

Congratulations and good luck.. please keep us updated.

@peacemak3r, what's your score?

I want to see if they're getting close to calling people with a 95 score for OPA, and I didn't have the list handy.

 

Thanks.

If I recall, it was around 96%.

Also for the extra $25, does it have to be money order?

Any one with any updates ?? Whether it be about training or maybe medical for the June 4 class ? 

[N1CKR]

Nada here, still awaiting that magical e-mail.

[MTAhopefullMatt]

Has the first 6601 class started yet?

 

Good luck to everyone waiting for medical.

They say 3-90 days but they appoint people to the position by list #. Supposedly they're up to the 200's for medical/final processing. There's no concrete answer for how long it will take since there are many factors involved. i.e how many people they intend to hire, how many turn down the position when called, etc...

Hey @LIRRMedford when you went for pre employment did they give y'all a date for when the July class will start or did they tell you guys June 3rd?

The lady only spoke about the class in April nothing about June....

They say between 3-90 days. If all goes well, they'll email you about 3-5 days after pre-employment to come in for final medical and the interview

So is it ok to assume that it can take more than 3-5 days up to 90 days correct??

Good luck to everyone waiting for medical.

The first 6601 class started Monday. We just received some of the equipment for the class and when we go to the field. Good luck to those going through OPA and pre-employment. Just make sure to pay attention to everything they say and ask for.

[Jrwave]

Can anyone give information on how the class are going? Also, how is the medical process? They did mention a June 3rd class but that is a Sunday...pretty sure they meant to say the 4th.

I'm in the 8000s range... whoopee...

I guess I'll have more better luck with the Bus Conductor exam.

Darn I was hoping it was just Monday - Friday anytime and then I could just take Weekend/online classes so I can avoid deferring when they get up to me 

Schoolcar is Monday thru Friday but you will be working all the tours as you go along. With some overnight tours, you may have to report the night before. (For example, working an overnight on Monday might have you come in at 11:45pm on Sunday night)

[Nyctransitorhotels]

Still curious if anyone knows weekend differential? Is if the same as night time differential? What is the rate for night time differential and when does it begin? 

 

I believe someone answered the last question. However if so i forgot the amount. Any help is appreciated 💯

You’re the second person to confirm OPA notices for the 3K range.   Awesome man.  Good luck.  9K range OPA notices I’m thinking perhaps by the end of the year.   

Patience and prayer is essential. I'm also in the 9K range.  Early 2019 at most for us 9K people.
