RCMP Entrance Exam

Hello, so I'm going apply soon. My one concern is the entrance exam since.

Mathematics is not my strong suite - I've done a few free practice exams and was only able to answer 14 of 28 questions within a 2 minute timer. They were all correct I just took way too long. Im 28 now so it's been a decade since I've been in school.

Also, business reasoning, spatial awareness and memory scores weren't anything to write home about either.

Do you guys know of/used any online prep guides that helped out? Its been a decade since I've been in school and really want to do well on the exam. Doesn't necessarily have to be the RCMP specifically but something equivalent.

I appreciate any leads!

Hello, I'm new to this sub so forgive me if I come across as a broken record. Anyways, someone left a false review on my profile. This was in January of last year.

If I try to reply I get a "Couldn't Create Response" message.

If I try to report it I get an "Unable to load this screen" message.

So is the damn thing just going to be a permanent tarnish on my profile with no recourse? Any help would be appreciated.

For anyone who is curious, I was the buyer in this situation. The item in question was a headache rack for a pickup truck. We had agreed on a price and that we would meet the next day if it was still available.

However, the "seller" only had one photo of the rack in his ad, with the bottom third not even visible in the frame - this is important because I needed to confirm if the mounting brackets were attached or if I would have to source them separately (some are welded on as one piece, others are bolt on separate pieces). I even stated it wasn't a big deal either way. Just curious.

For some reason this crossed a wire in this dudes circuitry. He went on a tangent about "people like me" who dont read the descriptions in ads (I did, there was nothing about the mounting hardware and his one picture wasn't any help either).

I told him that it was a simple question and the crashout/rant was unnecessary and that I no longer wish to conduct business with him if he's going to continue being hostile.

That was the final exchange. No reply from him, he just left the false review "DID NOT READ ADD AT ALL SET UP MEETING THEN NO SHOWED AFTER ASKING QUESTIONS ALREADY ANSWERED IN ADD" and then blocked me.

Any who, it sucks that Facebook will allow you to slander just about anyone's reputation because you're having a bad day. I'm not the most tech savvy, so if there's some work around to this pleas let me know.

Thanks!
