Unfortunately it was stated by the FDNY last year that the only applicants who had a chance at getting hired were the ones that scores a 97 or higher (in reference to the open competitive exam). I know that as of right now they haven't even reached the applicants who scored a 100 on the test because I have a friend who scored a 100 and the FDNY still has not contacted him. Considering so many people received similar scores it is possible that they reached the 100's but just have not reached his list number. Another friend of mine who I spoke with a month ago received a 103 and said that he already completed everything and he was set for the January academy. They are most likely around 101-102 right now. I also have a cousin who received a 99 and as of a few days ago said they still have not contacted him. They barely even cracked into the open competitive list considering only 22 or so guys from the OC list have made it to the academy thus far. I agree with the last posts if you really want the job get your EMT asap so you can apply for the next EMT exam which will probably be next September as the last exam just occurred.
