    You have to keep your nose clean and make every appointment every step of the way. Mostly, it is a matter of taking the test and then keep focused on staying fit and clean. It is the BEST FIRE DEPARTMENT in the world bar none. I worked in a large departement and had 7 years on and left to come. Never regret a day of it.
