    for LA City Fire Department:

    How many days in a year?
    A) 364
    B) 365
    C) 366
    D) 367

    What is 5/8-1/2?
    A) 1/2
    B) 1/4
    C) 1/8
    D) 3/8

    if i don't finish this test first, i'll be really pissed at myself. this is a basic test that you must pass before getting to your oral interview which is basically 95% of what they base your hiring on. gl me.

    Wait number 1) could be a trick question. Does it say anything about a Leap year?

    Try not to think too hard about it.

    With all the sarcasm on these boards, sometimes I have a hard time telling the serious posts from the sarcastic ones, such as this one...

    5/8 - 1/2 = 5/8 - 4/8 = 1/8***

    SoCal, they best way to assure they take you is to demonstrate your bi-lingual capabilities. Since Spanish is commonplace in California, I'd study up on Farsi or Ebonics just to get that edge.
