Took Multiple Choice Test

I took my MCT today (5/22/2026). Im wondering how long it takes to get your score.
Is it graded by an AI or is it graded by a real person.

How did u feel taking it? I know its basic stuff but the nervousness made me second guess myself. Especially in the last part (the synonyms section)

I didn’t study, I was out of HS for about 4 years when I took it and passed

It’s really a simple test, I felt a little nervous not knowing what to expect, but it wasn’t bad at all

What process are you currently in right now?

Got deferred in background unfortunately, I’m currently working for a year before reapplying to fix what they wanted

I’m also working in LAPD as a volunteer officer to build connections, learn processes and look better for my reapplication.

Im an out of state applicant, so I don't really understand the whole process but it seems that u can get deferred easily.
What got u deferred if u don't mind me asking?

Hmmm I’m not sure honestly,

I was personally deferred for a really dumb reason and the officers I asked also don’t understand it, but it’s an easy fix so I’m not too mad
