Cadet Basic Training Questionaire

The following questionnaire will allow you to see how well prepared you are for the Curry exam that you must pass to achieve your first promotion. This is a closed book questionnaire. Follow these steps:

1. Study all of the material in your Cadet Basic Training Handbook.

2. When you are satisfied that you know the material, answer this questionnaire. Do not refer to any books or notes while completing the questionnaire. Write your answers directly in this booklet. Read each question carefully. Some questions have two or more parts which must be answered.

3. After you have decided that you are finished with the questionnaire, sign below, indicating that you took the questionnaire closed book, and that no answers will be changed after signing.

4. You may then refer back to your Cadet Basic Training Handbook, to check on any answers that you were unsure but do not change them on your answer sheet. It is important that we find out what material you don’t know well, as we may not be teaching that material adequately and it may require that we review some of the material with all Cadets.

5. Bring your completed questionnaire to the next CAP meeting, and hand it in to one of the Leadership Officers.

I have taken this questionnaire without referring to any notes or books. Once I have signed here, I will make no further changes to my answers.
