latinojetsfan Posted September 2, 2011 Share #726 Posted September 2, 2011 I have a question regarding the current school car classes. Did a class start this past monday August 29th? There may have been a class yes. There is also one starting on 9/12.... so I heard. But i called MTA yesterday. They are up to number 277 in terms of call backs for full medical and final processing. She said we are the next 20 to be called. And she confirmed that i am on that call back list. I hope shes not lying. lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

10038 Posted September 2, 2011 Share #729 Posted September 2, 2011 It has a driver ID on it, no? If you pay off the parking tickets, you're getting a job back. I'd say that's a fair trade off. You don't want to get put on hold, skipped over (losing seniority), or potentially getting not appointed over something that stupid. Thanks for the info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And we should be hearing from her pretty soon. Good Luck to you guys! With the way things are going, I hope to be called near the end of October, no later than Thanksgiving.

SubwayGuy Posted September 2, 2011 Share #731 Posted September 2, 2011 I have a question regarding the current school car classes. Did a class start this past monday August 29th? Yes...there's another class starting in Sept. I believe the entire 8/29 class, like the 7/25 class before it, is going to the B Division. No word on where the September class is going.

nycmike718 Posted September 2, 2011 Share #733 Posted September 2, 2011 So with my list number being 362, is it safe to assume i'll be taking another drug test and possibly 2 before getting called for medical? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think so. I was informed that the drug test is only good for 30 days. When did you go in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

latinojetsfan Posted September 2, 2011 Share #738 Posted September 2, 2011 Aug 25th I was there on the 8/19 and i just got the call to come in for the full medical and if i'm "cleared" they will swear me in. Class starts 9/26. I asked what the medical consisted of. It's everything in the universe like tons of questions about your medical history, vision, hearing, ekg..... I asked if they would do another drug test and she said no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nycmike718 Posted September 2, 2011 Share #741 Posted September 2, 2011 Typically how many people are selected per class? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
latinojetsfan Posted September 2, 2011 Share #742 Posted September 2, 2011 Typically how many people are selected per class? She mentioned calling people in 20 at a time but from what i've read here, i believe the classes are broken down in to groups of 10 or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nycmike718 Posted September 2, 2011 Share #743 Posted September 2, 2011 20 at a time to make a class of 10. Wow. So i'm looking at after Christmas or longer then...lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
latinojetsfan Posted September 2, 2011 Share #744 Posted September 2, 2011 20 at a time to make a class of 10. Wow. So i'm looking at after Christmas or longer then...lol. Thats hard to say. When i called the lady on Wed, she told me that she has to call the next 20 and i was in the group. She finally called this afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SubwayGuy Posted September 3, 2011 Share #747 Posted September 3, 2011 Just to clarify something that's being misspoken around these parts the last few pages...a "class" beginning on a certain date is different in size than a "schoolcar class". "Schoolcar classes" are typically no more than 10 people. However Transit may fill a "class" of 20, 30, 40, (insert arbitrary number here) with the same start date. That's the large group all starting the same day. However, after orientation and the first week, that large group will be broken down into groups of no more than 10 - "schoolcar classes". Classes will be arranged depending on the division the classes are going to (ie A and B division classes are NEVER mixed), and after that...randomly. So more than 10 will likely start in September, but after that first week when you get broken down into your "schoolcar class" there will likely be no more than 10 in your group from that point on. You may have a "sibling" class that you will take tests with or go to big training events with, but for the most part you will only be with your class of maximum 10 after that first week. Good luck to all going in for final processing - remember to have your paperwork in order and your story straight for the doctors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poughkipsee Posted September 4, 2011 Share #750 Posted September 4, 2011 You don't get to choose which Division to initially train in? And do you get to train in both divisions? Hopefully by the time they get to my number it will be for A Div, the only letters I'm closest to are the B/D and A. Everything else is sooo far. The 1, 2 and 4 are my "home lines".
