Nevermind I think you’re right

It was still there…I guess it’s called an aptitude test

I want to do better next time around so if there’s anything I could study ahead of time before I get the email or something I should know in advance before I go in to take the test for the positions I just named it would be greatly appreciated

It was kinda difficult…5 parts each one timed…just waiting for the results now

Thank you! Will do

Thank you for responding…I appreciate it

Metro North finally called me back after applying relentlessly for years….my test is in 2 weeks…besides basic math and the signal study guide they gave me…is there anything else I need to know that can give me an advantage on the test?…I haven’t done anything school related in years and I’m willing to do anything I can to pass…please help….Thanks in advance

Or woman lol but thank you

Appreciate it man

I just applied for Metro North Assistant Conductor the other day and I had a few questions as well if you’re able to answer… 1 : Is the test hard and is there anything out there that I can study ahead of time way before I even get called? Because I would love if I could have a study guide beforehand 2 : When you get hired as an assistant conductor….do you get to choose between passenger, yard or flag conductor? Or do they just throw you anywhere they want? 3? Is Assistant conductor school hard? What should I expect? Thanks

Thanks

What YouTube videos would you recommend to someone who’s planning on becoming an MTA conductor?

Thanks. Do you know of any flash cards or study info I could use to prepare for conductor school beforehand?. I’m on a laser focused mission to get that job and I want to do anything I possibly can to succeed

Are these flashcards specifically for Train Operator? Or will they help for Conductor school too?

Which job Are these flash cards a good study method for? conductor or train operator? Because that would be very useful if it’s for conductor

Thank you

lol if you find out feel free to let me know..Thanks

License required for conductor too? Or just T.O?

Thanks for the response!

First timer here…Pardon me if I’ve wrote something incorrectly because I just made an account on here…I’ve been reading this forum since yesterday and saw a lot of usable knowledge helping a lot of people so I was hoping I could do the same for myself Quick summary : I’m planning on applying for both Conductor and Train Operator when the applications open in the next few months and I’m willing to put all my time and energy into getting accepted into MTA by any means necessary. I do have a few inquiries though, 1 . Is there anyway to academically prepare for conductor school in advance? (As in a legitimate study guide, books, etc) I heard the green and yellow books are useless. I’ve been out of high school for several years now and I’d like to get a head start on the learning process for Transit school before I get there 2. Is it true that they check your credit during a background check? And do you need a NY Driver’s license for either of these jobs? 3. Does living an hour outside of NYC have an effect on my chances of getting the job? Because I’m willing to commute no matter what. Even if I have to take the train at 2 am to get there early 4. How long are both train operator and conductor school? Are the classes only in Brooklyn specifically? 5. I know they don’t want you to be a “know it all” before you get to the courses but if there’s any tips, hacks, or valuable cues or advice I’m willing to hear them all Thank you in advance
