This video helped me a lot! Also the comments helped me! I passed my CBT test today 2-22-22. My advice is to study using google to look up X-ray images of TSA etc. touch up on grammar. Go in there calm and relaxed but to be honest it’s hard not to be anxious and nervous. On the 1st part of test (written assessment) read the questions first before reading the passage. Eliminate the wrong answers first. Take your time to read. 2nd part of test the X-ray images. Take a break rest your eyes. You got this! I was scared I was going to fail but I passed. They sent me email literally 5 or less minutes after test
Congratulations!
Were some of the questions self explanatory?
How is the X-ray test? I’m literally scheduling my cbt test right now as we speak. I’m already on TH-cam looking up tips lol
Hi, did you passed the CBT just base on material from this video. I see there are a lot of paid prep test. Not sure if those are necessarily needed. Thanks for your input
@@nicklam1911 yes I passed it. Now that I did my e-qip I’m just waiting for there response. My best advice I can give you is to practice your English comprehension and Don’t make up images in your head on the X-ray portion.
The way u explained the color code for Xrays helped me pass my test on my first try. Its 2.5 hrs long, but kid you not I was in and out in 50 mins with the whole test. And PASSED!! Thanks to your videos.
was the written test easy? I'm only worried about that because I wasn't born in America.
What about the X-Ray test how was it? You can send me a private message.
@@nightshade_dx8.128 written test is a walk in the park.. It consist of doing some correct spelling, grammar, punctuation and if you know English and speak it well then it will be SUPER easy. Trust me.
@@nightshade_dx8.128 as for the X-Rays again... it was damn easy.. before you test each question they give you a sample of what your gonna be looking for in the screen in a few seconds, so when the image shows all you do is look for the images with the colors from the sample image you were shown prior to each real image... so say it shows you knives and those are dark blue.... the test image will show up next and only focus on finding dark blue items. When an image shows light green what ever the illegal item is don't worry, just follow the color code and trust me you will do great. I finished in 50 mins..THE WHOLE TEST.
@@JUANITO5338 I need to schedule my test. Do you have another link for video tutorials?
Hey y’all! Just passed my test today 10/06/23. Will be moving forward with SFO so if you’re up here in NorCal you can still expect the old test.. English & X-Ray. Definitely had enough time and it wasn’t too difficult. The X-Ray half was super easy for me and I got through it so quick. Took me abt an hour & a half to complete. The company I went through had an in person class with us and gave us links to a lot of great websites to study so hmu if you’d like any. Good luck everyone!
Hey I take my test teusday you have any suggestions? Or any info on what I’ll have to do
@@FrostyOnTren Man I tried replying to you but it wouldn’t post🥹. How did it go?
You got any links?
Links bro ?
Hey, you got any link or advice?
My CBT Test is tomorrow, and I have Faith and Hope I will Pass!!!✌🏾
How did it go?
@@theoddgoddess9653He failed
Took the CBT test today. All the x-ray items were in color. Gave you 30 seconds to look for items like knives shoes cell phones and watches. While I did preview this video and some others I felt that I struggled. The English was broken up into sections. I passed but reviewed both areas.
Are you an agent right now? How's the job ?
Thanks for the help. Just past.
It took like 55 minutes.
I'll be scheduling my test soon, this video helped me tho learn what the test is about
This video as extremely helpful/informative!!! thank you so much!!!!
Took it today in 1.5 hrs and passed it. I didn’t think I did but I did so you will be just fine once you watch this and read each question carefully.
how many questions are on the test?
Are you an agent right now ? How's the job?
extremely helpful!! thank you so much!
Thank you for this,My Test is next month, I can’t wait !
This was so helpful thank you🥰💯🙌🏾🙏🏾
Thanks for this one, chief. My CBT test is this upcoming Wednesday. Wish me luck!
Did you pass?
@Mr. Rich B.O.B How did you do?
hi
👀👀
Way to leave us hanging 😂😅
This helped somewhat. This is really just a guide. I recently took my test and passed it. Once I started the test I realized it was going to be a lot easier than I thought, the hardest part of that test is to identify particular things on the scanner.
Like playing I spy?
Was the written test easy or somewhat hard? I ask because I wasn't born here, so my English is not quite fluent. What about the X-Ray test how was it? You can send me a private message.
@@nightshade_dx8.128 I don't have to send you a private message to let you know that it wasn't hard at all but English is my first language there is a portion where they will ask you what the word that means the same thing as the word showing on the screen
@@Rysofly did you ever get the job? What were the steps after the test?
@@lamobiss7075 I just did the airport assessment. ( Interview) it's many moving parts.
When I took the image test there was no hold option, only pass or fail for each image. I was also not allowed to manipulate the image in any way.
Hey everyone. Just took the exam and its completely different. Its matching images and 2D/3D images you got to put together in your mind. Good luck!
same
English written assessment test?
Is that supposed to be easier ?
That’s It.?
@@febisworld7791lol, the 3rd section is much more complicated than you think
I just got back from taking it, and the X-Rays on the actual test do not look like these. There are no colors, and only two options: You are supposed to look for specific items, and press 1 if you see the object, or 9 if you don't. You might want to update your stuff.
Was it easy?
The test I took had colors on it and I just took it recently. It is probably different state to state
@@buggzy9383 what state are u? I’m Atl Ga and going in a couple days.
what if you have dyslexia phonetic processing is not the same how do you accomendate?
I’m taking mine today, wish me luck.
Mines tomorrow but I’ve been studying wish me luck :)
I on edge and nervous . I take my test tomorrow .
Gonna be taking mines on the 25th. Any more tips on the X-ray?
Just passed mine today! This video helped alot
Why do they need your credit card info after??
What they mean by credit card in formation of you pass
Thank you
This does help I see
taking my cbt tomorrow.
i could do this job, but can’t pass CBT test 🤦♂️
One time my bag went through an x-ray at a museum and they thought I had a gun but it was my iPod & water bottle. At an airport a family member was traveling with protein bars and they are if she had explosives inside
I passed mines today!
Great video btw.
Testing in an hour! Feels as stressful as testing for the next rank in the military again!
Are you an agent right now? How's the job ?
@WESLEYUSA23 I am not. It took them 8 months to ask me for an interview. By that time I already got another job and an internship for my degree. Very disappointing how they handled the process since I passed the test and did everything else required.
@SaltyJarl I'm sorry to hear that, I'm considering to start the application. English is not my 1st language. I live in in MA, I was checking about the salary I got in shock how much they offer, 40k it's really low, not sure if the source is true but I was expecting more for such a stressful job. I'll probably starts the application and see what happens.
@WESLEYUSA23 Maybe you will get lucky and your local Airports are in need of staff. What is your goal for a career? I applied for border patrol, too, and it took months to hear back as well. I have 8 years of law enforcement experience, and it was very hard to get a security job straight out of the military. I am going to school for a business related degree and I received a few job offers relatively easy.
@SaltyJarl I don't have any experience in law enforcement, I'm 38 years old , working as a photographer, and uber driver, but I really need a new career. DHS or CBP also is on my list but TSA may be a start. I'm in Boston planning to start the application this week. I just need to do something 😩
Test is tomorrow, I'm a bit nervous praying I pass the first time
My test is today so wish me luck guys
How was the test?
Okay so I passed it a few days ago. It was kinda easy in the sense that the English is pretty basic. Just make sure your go over your answers. For the X-ay you don’t really have to study unless you want to. It is kinda hard and I messed up on a few but I miraculously passed. Next is medical, does anyone have tips for the interview???!?
Are you an agent right now? How's the job ?
Taking mine tomorrow, I’m scared
wish me luck my cbt test is this upcoming wednesday i have a question for the x-ray portion on the test do u have to identify the color setting for each error in a picture or do u just select what shouldn’t be going thru?
How did you do?
Let it be known, that the written part doesn't simply involves just finding synonyms for single words, or correcting grammar, spelling in sentences --
-- It also has you read entire trivial paragraphs, and makes you find the jist of it, or answer a question about it.
All multiple choice, of course.
Give us some samples please.
Having a hard time scheduling my car test on the candidates website. Can someone help.
took my test today and passed ☺️☺️
How was the test
@@ianna502 it was pretty easy.
Congratulations on your pass. I’m about to schedule my test and got a little test anxiety
@@chantellejohnson6438 Wow congratulations mine is today in a few hours, any tips?
Congratulations
I will be having my test tomorrow
How did it go
Purchased a self study program. Earned my JD degree 30 years ago (never practiced law, used it for another purpose). Have a bachelor's degree in economics. Hold a certified appraiser license. Have a brokers license.
NOW..........took the CBT test yesterday...was in and out in about 2 hours. Felt REALLY good about how I did. Got home and this email was waiting for me: Unfortunately, you did not pass the Computer Based Test requirement for the TSO position.
WTF? Something funny going on here. I'm over 55 years of age, great health. If I'm too old....just tell me up front. Something funny going on here.
I'm not good enough to greet people and run a scan machine?
SMH
LMAOOO
Maybe you should get over yourself and find some humility
Do you work for TSA Still? If so do you know this is SSI?
Passed first time only used 1 hour of 2.5… didnt watch any videos to help me.. but this was good info
I am thinking of taking the test how hard is it and how much do new bees make
@@danielamaning5765 The test is very easy, just tests your english language skills and the x-ray part is testing you ability to recognize objects and your ability to see color. The pay will depend on your airport location and if you're part/full-time. Part-time annual salary is about 13k after taxes and all your premium pay and full-time annual pay is about 45k after taxes and all your premium pay
@@theTSAguydid u get hired? Hpw is it ?
@@WESLEYUSA23 i got hired in 2011 and then promoted to a differetn agency in 2013. the test has changed in the last 6 months, so no every video on the CBT is obsolete
@theTSAguy Thanks to respond, may I ask what you think about the job after being so long working for the agency? Any regrets? I'm looking for a career, I'm 38 years old, English as my second language, which worries me because I have a strong accent with not fluently English but I'm considering to start the application.
Anyone here in Connecticut that took CBT and passed any tips on study or test
Can someone tell me why they would need my credit card information?…
Pretty sure he just means they will check your credit score
To make sure you don't owe delinquent taxes or child support
Ohhhh. Checking your credit through background makes sense…don’t know why heard credit card information, because that is incorrect. Thanks Michael.
Is drugs, considered “alarm” or a hold?
I watched all the videos and no one’s ever said .
They only use alarm for a weapon in the example for all of the videos, they never say what drugs are classified as .
Is the English portion hard?
How many questions is on the test ?
I take my test in 2 hours, hope this video helps. Wish me luck!
how did it go?i hope you passed
How u do
I’m guessing not so well
Lmao my fault I forgot I posted this. I passed the test lol it wasn’t anything crazy. Just familiarize yourself with looking at X-ray pictures and you’ll be fine.
@@chrissmith197 just finished my medical and background check. Now I’m in the ready pool waiting for a final offer.
Thank you for this video. My test is Saturday.
Hello. How did you do on the test? My test is tomorrow and I'm a bit more concerned about the English portion since I'm a ESL speaker :(
@@conniearevalo7434 I passed. I'm going through the process right now. Take your time on the english part. Use deductive reasoning. It's multiple choice so if you don't know the answer eliminate the ones you know are wrong.
@@jamesfreeman763 Congratulations!!! and thanks for the tips..
How many questions are on the exam?
@@jjay5489 I don't remember the total but you have enough time to answer each question. I think the images part is more difficult, images are old and only 15 seconds to answer.
Testing today wish me luck
How did your test go? Was it hard or easy? did it really take 2.5 hrs?
How did it go??
hold
wish me luck i am taking my test soon this really help an it made me feel good about test now
How can I prepare ? For assessment Have no knowledge or experience of this I have 3 weeks to study
Mines tomorrow I'm nervous
Now I wonder why there is a shortage of TSA officers. It seems pretty hard exam with no prior experience in X-ray. Why make it so difficult as pre-employment requirement? It's pretty much entry level position, not even equal to GS-9.
That’s why they changed it
Instructor said the pass rate was way less than it is now
Would a knife be classified as a Hold or Alarm which requires police intervention?
I’m also trying to figure that out, I take my test this Thursday
@@jchan3123 yeah I got a test preparation actually so hopefully I’ll be able to pass it
@@Velotooslow how did it go ?
@@hellohunter8583 I’m gonna be honest the test was easy on the grammar part but the X ray part was really difficult
@@Velotooslow any tips?
I just took the test right now and I have to say, I'm completely disappointed. The test was supposed to be 1 hour and 15 mins but I was actually 20 mins for the x-ray exam and 15 mins for the English test. I have to say that I'm positive that I passed the x-ray exam but the English exam...fucking hell man. On the first page, I did well, 2 pages last 2 questions I roughly guessed it because I was running out of time, and on the 3rd page, I just ran thru it the best I could really like it was 9 questions and I had 1 minute remaining said by the coordinator. If I had an extra 5 mins, I would be more confident. I'll be getting my results this week but I'm positive and confident that I failed but who knows but I wouldn't be surprised if I. But if I did pass, I would move on to the next step of a group interview and I highly doubt that...
Did you pass?
@@tylermotland Yes sir I did.
@@sandrosingson6310 good work. Taking mine Friday.
@@tylermotland that's good man, I'm assuming your doing lots of research to study? for what agency or company?
Did u get the Tso position
I’m going to Tso exam test help me what should I do for preparation 😢 no idea help me give me idea please usa send me material
I got my test today
Did u got hired?
How much TSA get paid?
They gave me none of these questions on my TSA CBT in NC, they had me identify shapes and numbers.
what about English test. what its like?
@@americawalk1154 they didn’t give me no English test only numbers and shapes
@latrellruffin8726 what’s the numbers and shapes about ?
@@mibrooks9460 hell if I know
The numbers are like connecting the bots but the last one is matching numbers and alphabets on a lay out and 3d shape
I hope I pass
How’d it go ? I got mine tomorrow, I know like it’ll be a walk in the park. Anything I should know going in ?
Hello all whoever Passed out fellow beings, I am preparing for the exam on the 19th of Jan '23. Give me some suggestions please English is not my primary language, I am worried that how its going to be and its my dream job, Suggestions are highly appreciated. Do i need to buy the Prep course??
I take mine tomorrow, will come back and let you know how it went
@@hellyramirez4060 how it go
@@Recruits.Colorado I passed, currently working on the ridiculously long background check.
@@hellyramirez4060 What English written test like?
@@hellyramirez4060did you get hired? How is it ?
So if you fail both times you cant ever apply for the job again
Hello, did you get the job for TSA? how long did it take for you to get the job after you passed the CBT test?
I will be taking mines on 10/30 but will be studying hard, i heard it's not hard at all
how’s it go.
I just submitted my online application today. When will I be expected to take the CBT Test? Will I be notified about it?
I did a application a few hours ago and got a email right away to take my test

@@lifewithshana3358did u got hired? How is it?
Appear entry to many people were failing this test so they changed it to a new one
So, you screen for bombs, toxic materials, and weapons, and get paid a little more than minimum wage??
I passed today thank you for your video!!!!!
How was the test?
How was it
If I was there but they told but couldn’t see my name on the list?
I failed my first time and had to wait 6 months and its almost time again. So any advice would be appreciated thanks.
Any luck in your second attempt? I failed mine yesterday. Very frustrated.
I’m a little confused! I took mine 30 minutes ago. I did my exam . It was about how quick I’ll match item’s and this other 3d problems. The exam never gave me an English Exam or xray test I am confused
I’m taking mine this upcoming Tues hope that’s all I have to worry about. Sounds like they may have updated it
I took mine today. I got the same test as you did. The 2d-3d problems. Have you got your results yet. I am waiting on results, I believe I did good and I will pass.
@@dorobeauty yes I passed ! Now I have an appointment tomorrow which I am nervous because I suck at job interviews .. I am going to the Assessment Center , This Airport Assessment will consist of validating identification and US Citizenship documents, a structured interview, collection of fingerprints, and the collection of required documents. Wish me luck!! 😓
Hey Carlos! Good luck to you though this journey. How was your airport assessment? I passed mine as well. I am still waiting to do my e-qip. It's says my SSN has already been registered which is kind of weird. wish me luck as well.
Hey Carlos did you get your results right away ? I didn’t get any results as yet, not sure if I passed it or not. I guessed on the last part with the 3D assessment. How long did you have to wait to get an interview?
My grammar and spelling isn't the best im dyslexic how hard is that part?
I have dyslexia and I was fine with the written portion but if u have been out of school for a min. I suggest highly that u brush up a bit. Trust me.
If you have dyslexia you should tell them you need an accommodation when you’re scheduling the exam
My test is tomorrow. I want to pass the test give me suggestions please 😊
Did you passed? Got hired?
I have my test in 2 days!
same!!!!

@@boogiegaming1846 you got it man! its all English comprehension. you need to know synonyms of English words, also you need to be comfortable with sentence and paragraph structure. you need to know correct punctuation. The X-ray part is easy just study the color and basic shape of the contraband they show you. They show you each contraband for 30 seconds to study. Its pretty easy, just take your time. If something seems right it most likely is! u got this dude!
@@kamtorz hey bro thank you! I passed!! I commented here on my experience! So stoked
mine is Tuesday July 26 wishhhhh me luckkkkk
mine is tomorrow

Test question 2: Can you say your name?
Test question 3: Would you be physically disqualified from any serious security position?
You're perfect!
BE AWARE this is NOT the first test you take to become a TSA. Learn how to transform 2d images into 3d if you want to pass.
Why credit card information? 😂 smh
They check your credit history
@@veraniecesutton1756 for wat tho more than half of America is in debt and the other half forsure isn’t going to work for TSA. It’s excluding a whole tier of people
So if u have bad credit will u not be hired
Some of yall need to chill. 😂
Lol
Credit card information? Why?
They check your credit to see if you are reliable and dependable also I think from what I heard if you have a lot of built up debt there is a chance you could be bribed by criminals that would offer to give you a lot of money to pass them through the screening process, idk it’s what I’ve read and have experienced myself for credit checks, thank god I pay all my bills on time even with debt
@@susanbeane2795 They can run ur credit report with out using your credit card, just with your Social. I am wondering why they ask for Credit Card.
Hum. I might just not bother with cbt test if they run a credit check. I been rebuilding my credit for awhile now and have outstanding student loans I might get disqualified
