How do the AZ POST vocabulary games work?
There are 4 games built on 20 AZ POST terms. In Guess the Term, a clue describes one term and you have six tries to spell it, with green, yellow and gray letters showing how close you are. In Term Match, six terms appear as colored tiles; swap neighbors to line up three or more of the same term, and each match shows what the term means. In Term Pairs, twelve face-down cards hide six pairs of terms; flip two at a time to find each pair, and every pair you find shows what the term means. In Term Search, five terms hide in a grid of letters, reading across, down or diagonally; drag across a term to circle it, and each term you find shows what it means.
Where do the AZ POST terms come from?
OpenExamPrep researched each term from the Arizona Peace Officer Standards and Training Board (AZPOST) content outline and primary sources, listed under Sources on this page. The game is independent study material, not an official exam resource.
What is the AZ POST passing score?
Each section of the AZPOST Comprehensive Examination is scored separately and requires 70% to pass (Ariz. Admin. Code R13-4-110). A failed section may be retaken once within 7 days of the original exam date while the candidate is still appointed or enrolled; failing the retake means repeating the full-authority basic training course.
How hard is the Arizona peace officer exam?
The AZ POST exam is considered moderate in difficulty. It requires thorough knowledge of Arizona Revised Statutes (ARS) Title 13, constitutional law, and patrol operations. Most candidates who complete academy training pass on their first attempt.
