Why buy, if you can get a free PNP Entrance Reviewer PDF here.

And I tell you, this is

the best and most updated PNP Entrance Reviewer available on the internet. This is
a Question and Answer reviewer. This is all you need if you want to pass the
NAPOLCOM or PNP exam.

The National Police Commission (NAPOLCOM) conducts two (2) sets of police
examinations twice a year, one for those who are already in the police service
(promotional), and another for those aspiring to enter the Philippines National Police
(PNP Entrance).

This free online reviewer is for those who want to pass the PNP Entrance Exam.
Intro
In recent years, working in public schools and offices has lured young men and women
and the young professionals. There are two big reasons for this. One is a good salary
and two is the security of tenure.

However, it is not very easy to enter public service. Unlike in the private companies
where you can be accepted even if you're not a board passer, the public schools and
offices require that you pass an eligibility exam before they can absorb you. And this is
where the problem lies.

It is hard to pass an eligibility exam. Yearly, thousand examinees are flunking the Civil
Service Examination, the Police Entrance Examination, and other exams. The truth is,
even the fresh graduates are finding it hard to pass the exam.

Today many young men and woman are aspiring to enter the police service. This is very
timely because the government is at war with the lawless and undesirable elements in
our society. Now more than ever, the country needs brave and courageous men and
women who can be part in the total cleanup and purging of the undesirables in our
society.

This free PNP entrance reviewer will surely help aspiring PNP servants to pass the
exam. We believe that through this reviewer, the number of passers will increase.

We put so much effort in the making of this reviewer because we want to make sure that
those who will use it will not only be able to answer the questions and exercises but will
understand them. Understanding is the key to solve the questions and exercises in this
reviewer.

We can assure would be takers that the questions and exercises in this reviewer can
help them when they take the exam. We interviewed several exam passers and asked
them for pointers and advice as to how we should formulate the questions and exercises
and they gladly helped us. We have come up with beautiful and informative questions
and exercises through the help of these exam passers.
What is so good about this reviewer is that you can use this even in other exam like the
Civil Service Examination because the Mathematics and English problems here are
almost identical with those in the Civil Service Exam. We really designed these questions
in such a way that whatever exam you take, you will not need another reviewer. This
reviewer is enough.

Just try understanding all the questions and exercises in this reviewer and you will
discover that solving them becomes so easy.
