Why High Scores Matter

To clarify, police services can view the scores/percentiles of your results. The police services will invite you in for an interview if your score/percentile is high enough. Therefore, you must work hard at your preparation and perform high enough to get to the next stage.

In conclusion, no interview invitations may mean your scores were not high enough. However, you can re-write the test in one year.

You may apply to services right away if you have your OACP certificate already. Cognitive Results has all the training and material required to help you succeed in the interview phase.

The new OACP certificate is valid for one year only. Also, you are required to keep it in good standing while you are in process with a police service.
