RTS4Life Posted October 30, 2013 Share #452 Posted October 30, 2013 DCAS has nothing to do with MTA exams anymore. What it looks like is MTA wants to make sure they get the right people before they spend money on them . When DCAS was running it. They would sent you a card with your passing score and if you got a high one. You would be posted it in the chief. When they called you they would send you down to One Centre Street. Since the city of newyork don't run MTA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sssick Posted October 30, 2013 Share #457 Posted October 30, 2013 . You sure? Each question was worth 1.25 points, how did you get a 93? And your right, about 30,000 people took the exam and at least half took the boss.... It doesn't add up! Time will tell! Good luck on your pre-interview. I got 6 wrong so I guess thats a 92.5, but still, in the 20's out of 30,000 with a 92 seems really weird to me. There had to be at least 20 people out of 30,000 that got less than six wrong. Good luck to you as well. It does add up, top scores on this exam are usually 10 or less wrong, I had 9 wrong and I am in the first group called as well. Has been the same for past exams I don't know I've never taken an MTA test before but I've taken sanitation and got a 98 and was over 5,000 on the list. DCAS has nothing to do with MTA exams anymore. What it looks like is MTA wants to make sure they get the right people before they spend money on them . When DCAS was running it. They would sent you a card with your passing score and if you got a high one. You would be posted it in the chief. When they called you they would send you down to One Centre Street. Since the city of newyork don't run MTA. On my letter is says if you decline and want to get back on the list, write a letter to DCAS to get back on the list. Weird. Thanks everyone for the answers!

Rm3271 Posted October 30, 2013 Share #458 Posted October 30, 2013 LOL!! I don't think I'm crazy, but then again my wife calls me "Crazy Ass" all the time. Do they normally notify you if you fail the BOSS exam? Because it would be nice to know where I stand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rm3271 Posted October 31, 2013 Share #466 Posted October 31, 2013 If you get the job you will be a city employee working for NYC Transit which is operated by the MTA, a state agancy that also operates Long Island Rail Road, Metro North, MABSTOA and MTA Bus...So technically you will be a City and State employee.
