  1. Good just a lot of cramming of information, and its true what they said the the role of a conductor isn't just about opening and closing doors.
  2. Idk tbh but I didnt wanna take any chances especially because you're ordering them online and cant actually try them on
  3. You get two more thick books and then a ton of other papers and then all your equipment and make sure you get a notebook and loose leaf papers just in case they ask for you guys to do homework on a separate paper, and index cards and a highlighter if you so wish to make studying easier.
  4. And ladies and guys who are entering school car soon aka this month or in August make sure you get a heavy duty bag where the straps can get tucked away, because you're not allowed to cross any tracks what so ever with any bags with straps hanging everywhere. Imagined a strap getting caught by a train and dragging you with it, it wouldnt be fun. I bought the kaka bag from Amazon and with that bag you're able to zip up the back straps. And I say a heavy duty bag because your bag is going to be super heavy with all the PPEs and books you'll be carrying around every single day.
  5. Rockports are comfortable I got them in a size bigger and wide and they feel good no foot pain what so ever.
  6. You cant have a BMI of 35 and over and your neck size has to be 17 inches or below
  7. The medical consist of a blood pressure check, an eye check, a hearing test, a diabetes check, a weight check, an ekg check and a BMI check and neck size.
  8. The 1 train's north terminal is Van Cortlandt 242, the 2 would be Wakefield 241, the 4 would be Woodlawn, the 5 would be Eastchester Dyre Avenue, and the 6 would be Pelham Bay Park these are all the bronx terminals as far as it goes for the A division.
  9. That would be the 3 line at 145th you can only open the front.
  10. I wanted the B divison but got tossed into the A divison because the B division got filled up quickly. It could be easier because the A division only has 7 lines compared to the B division which has 15 lines. Also the A divison has only R188s, R62s, and R142s
  11. Some people got put in the division they didnt wanna be in a lot of people picked the B and the remaining people got stuck in the A division.
  12. It's good cant complain just a lot of stuff to learn in so little time so be ready to get crammed with stuff
  13. Damn really that fast that's good continuing closing them doors and keeping an eye on those mdc lights lol
  14. I heard from a little birdy that the 1600s will be called soon
  15. I was wondering why they never said anything in the email you got about fingerprints or anything. What's your list number?
  16. A blank money order for $88.25 (fingerprint processing fee). Dont fill it out they'll tell you what to put down. The fingerprinting is the final part, right after you're sworn in you'll be fingerprinted.
  17. You would need to bring a money order for your fingerprints to be. And didn't the email they sent you mention everything that would need to bring anyways?
  18. First day and until you get your uniform you have to wear a baby blue button down shirt and dark navy blue slacks. And make sure to wear them with the boots you ordered. They did the uniform measurements on the 3rd or 4th day down in union hall.
  19. I picked the rockports just make sure you get a wide if you have a wide foot or bunions or w.e on a side note i saw some people in my c/r class wear caterpillars. I got the rockports and they're comfortable but it goes on appearance I guess. And also make sure you get the right size nothing to small or you'll get blisters on the back of your heels or pain in your feet aka a horrible day.
  20. They've mention that a bunch of people are entering at the right time because they are hiring a lot of conductors because of the amount of people retiring. Idk how much a lot is but just informing you guys/gals.
  21. Do you remember her name because I kinda had the same lady she was really nice and sweet lol
  22. The only questions they really ask is are you ready to start a good career with pension and amazing benefits. But I only went to two pre employments one in February and then another one in May of 2019 and I was sworn in on June.
