Police Practice Papers : Exam Practice Papers for the Scottish Police forces

Now is as good a time as any to join the police force in Scotland. Despite the recent heavy recruitment drive, most of the forces are still recruiting and some, such as Strathclyde Police, have an ongoing recruitment programme.

However............

The first stage in the recruitment process is an entrance test know as the Standard Entrance Test. Currently............

40% of people sitting the Test fail!

30% of graduates sitting the Test fail!

62% of ethnic minorities sitting the Test fail!

The Police Practice Papers workbooks have been designed to help you prepare for the test. Since the police force allows you only three attempts at the entrance test, there is a real need to be prepared if you want to make the most of each test opportunity.

The workbooks are written in a clear, concise and to the point style. The introduction to Papers 1-4 contains up-to-the-minute, relevant information about the SET test as well as essential information about exam techniques and how to maximise your results. The Numbers book gives preparation techniques for working with numbers and examples of how to work out each question in the Numbers test.

Each practice paper is designed to be as close to the actual test as possible. The workbooks are a must for anyone seriously thinking about a career in the police force in Scotland. We aim to have all orders in the post (first class mail) by the following day.

STOP PRESS: a six week SET Preparation Course will run in Glasgow city centre on Monday and Wednesday evenings

6.30 to 9.00pm

'Can you please post on your website my satisfaction. It's my third and final time sitting the SET. It was only then I discovered Police Practice Papers. I am pleased to say thanks to the practice papers I passed. Very useful and perfect service. Thanks!!' Alice

I asked my mates who are in the 'G' force and they had never come across your papers. GLAD I DID! I would recommend the papers to anyone going for S.E.T! I find the Information Handling paper the hardest. A book with worked examples of those questions would be helpful as you can’t really practice them any other way. Cheers. Alex.

Thank you very much for the fast and efficient service which you have provided. I am very pleased with the website, prices and polite updates which I have received once I had ordered my practice papers. I will recommend your website without a second thought. Kind regards, Richard.

'Many thanks for the idea of releasing the Scottish Police Practice Papers to the general public as currently the range of Police Entrance test books are more inclined for English and Welsh forces.

As for someone who relishes the idea of joining Strathclyde Police and having sat the exam twice as a fail with only marginal marks from the overall pass mark. I feel the Scottish PPP has helped me develop a greater understanding of the numeracy section - sadly my downfall. I am using the PPP as well as previous instruction from areas such as the Big Plus and personal tuition to fully prepare me for the exam as it was shocking to see how badly my numeracy had fallen behind.

I am hoping I can finally lay to rest the past years of disappointment where I came close but fell in the final hurdle and I hope that the PPP will finally put me towards the career I have always wanted to do. Thanks, Scott.'

Thanks very much for sending out the other paper so quickly, very much appreciated!

They are excellent ;-) Jacque
