Frequently Asked Questions
Is the ID POST vocabulary game free?
Yes. The game is free to play with no sign-up. Signing in adds AI explanations for any term.
How does the ID POST vocabulary game work?
Each round shows a clue for one of 20 ID POST terms. Guess the term in six tries: green means the right letter in the right spot, yellow means the letter is in the term but in another spot, and gray means it is not in the term. After the round, read the explanation and play the next term.
Where do the ID POST terms come from?
OpenExamPrep researched each term from the Idaho Peace Officer Standards and Training (Idaho POST) 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 Idaho POST passing score?
Idaho POST requires a minimum score of 75% on every Basic Academy Certification Exam. A student who fails gets one retake, which must be taken within six months after the academy's scheduled graduation date; failing both attempts or missing that window means the student cannot be certified.
How hard is the Idaho peace officer exam?
The Idaho POST exam is considered moderately difficult. It requires thorough knowledge of Idaho Code, particularly Title 18 covering criminal offenses, as well as constitutional law and patrol operations. Most candidates who complete academy training pass on their first attempt.
