having a criminal justice degree goes a long way from what i hear :hsdunno:

 

That is somewhat of a backup for me if something should happen with my career

 

Go for it dude if it helps you better yourself

 

Yea my brother told me that's what is college professor told him. His teacher was/is a detective not sure. They get paid little more just with that degree but either way having a college degree helps a little also as opposed to just a GED.

 

i know there was a cop that used to post in here, dont know if he's still around

 

Thanks alot man......:hi5:

 

I had a friend who failed out of police academy for Oakland. Basically, from what he said it's similar to Army basic with a little less shooting and a little more classroom.

 

Yea, right about now i've reached that point in my life where I want to do something positive and at the same time would be something I would enjoy and be in a career where advancement is good. Although i've been thinking of doing this a few times last year, i'm definately going through with it this year.

 

Should be ok then.....my sister just joined the Army in september and graduated in November from bootcamp. I know what they go through and although it won't be easy, I can say I got the balls and mind set not to give up and graduate.

 

Just make sure you're on time and not hung over. That's what got my friend kicked out.
