Border Patrol Test

gettysburgfreak · 04-23-2009, 02:44 PM

Took it last week with a buddy of mine from college. Didn't think I was going to pass it as one of the sections is an artificial language and they ask you a bunch of very difficult questions. Got a letter in the mail today saying I passed it

Has anyone else taken the exam?

KidRock · 04-23-2009, 02:45 PM

Congrats! It is a very hard exam esp. the ALT.

That's called the DLAB, Lieutenant.

DLAB stands for Defense Language Aptitude Battery.
