Kingsbridge Bus Depot, 

Yes, day 7 cover's everything that was thought to you from day 1.pre trip inspection, highway driving, street driving,straight backing, and parallel parking and a easy 19 a exam 20 question. but you must do well on day 6 to get a shot at day 7. but if you fellow the instructor teaching  you will make it. alot of people with permits passed.

Line training starts nxt week. I was in the 6/10 starting class. I qualified on day 7.day 8 and 9 we were at Jamaica depot learning the other bus, and waiting for the other guys who did not qualify on day 7. So nxt week we will  pick a depot and start line training

No not six digits. It's 187* if you are 11** for exam 7105 you should hv being call already

mine was 187*** and people in my class had a little higher than mine

Thank you Young.

(347) 643-8213 that's a good # as well. I would say keep calling, I remember they told me they are not at my list # yet back in march. then I call again in early may  and some women over the phone told me they hv gone passed my list #  so I should  come in Wednesday, Thursday or Friday.  So went in the Wednesday and finally I did the drug test. But I know there's a class on 6/24 because they told us in orientation. so keep calling and hopefully your in the nxt class after that.

Keep calling them I went down to Livingston five times before I got through, they keep telling me hiring freeze, until one day I call again and they tell me to come in for drug test

I qualified today. I was in the 6/10 class

There is a class starting 6/24

 Okay so I went in today for medical.  Make sure you have a blue ball pen. Fill out the information they give you. Don't put any dates. When you get to pensions dont do anything.

Now medical. I have blood pressure, they check your blood pressure. Mine was high. So they said no problem relax, so we take the eye exam, weight and height.  We go back to blood pressure. Still kind of high, no problem will check again in a few. 

 

So now we have to do ekg. This monitor's the heart rate as well. And does a print out at the end. They monitored me for about 20 minutes. Btw shirt is off and belt. Pants you keep on.

Blood pressure was still high. So they said let's get a hearing test. So we do a hearing test. I'm sure you guys have done this before when you're kids. Push the button when you hear the beeps.

 

So now we go back to the ekg room.  I lay there for about 25 or 30 min. Almost sleep.  They check my blood pressure without the machine. Now I'm getting okay readings.

They send me back to the lobby. I wait. I get called back by one of the supervisors. She looks at what was done to me today. Makes you do some simple yoga tai chi maneuvers.  Very good she writes everything down. 

 

Then she said your blood pressure very high. She checks it. Yes. Asks me half a dozen medical questions. And then checks neck size.

 

So she recommends I go to my doctor get whatever they're asking and get a referral for a sleep apnea test. 

I don't how long of a study for the sleep apnea test is. But I'm wondering if i can do both within a week. 

I knew this was going to happen. I saw guys as big as houses working for the mta. I'm sure they've all have been on medical hold.

 

 

Also anyone going to medical hold, don't sweat it. I saw a guy weighing 185 pounds get put on medical hold. Alot of people go through this. So just relax and try to get it done as soon as you can. Alot of us are stressed and have high blood pressure. 

Also she said that 159 is borderline pass or fail. That's what she told me. But that depends on your BMI.

 

If you got a certain BMI with high blood pressure that's instant medical hold and sleep apnea test.

 

I have to do medical on Wednesday. did you get pass medical yet?

I was 90 day's away from 3 years back in October of 2018.They gave me a paper slip to come back when am eligible. I went back in February and they told me about an hiring freeze. However I was there this week and I did the drug test so finally.

IT'S best to show up and explain your situation.because at the bottom of the pre employment letter, it said "failure to respond will result in your name being remove from list."May I ask what is your exam # and a idea of your list #?

Will do nxt time. they told me to call back in three weeks,so I'll see how that goes. I am hoping they are still hiring by then.

Thank's for the info. really appreciate knowledge of the  medical process. They call me 3/28 to report for processing on 4/2, when I got there they told me they are my list # 188*  for exam 7105 and  that I am close for processing but I am like 13 numbers away, something like that. I was so upset for them wasting my time again, I didn't even hear what the guy was saying clearly. Did anyone else had anything similar? 

I just got a call as well to come in.

Ok

Hey guy's am new to this forum. I recieved a letter back in October 2018, to go down 180 Livingston for pre employment, however they pulled me out of orientation, and gave me a slip to to call back to set an appointment due to my driver's license was NOT three years old at the time. However I call back today. the lady said to call back early April due to no hiring now. Is that the case for everyone? exam 7105.
