More than 17,000 applicants were summoned on Sunday to attend the first stage in their hopeful journey of joining the National Police, in a series of entry tests conducted in different cities in Spain, sources from the Ministry of the Interior have reported.
According to the Ministry’s website, last November 2,456 places were convened, of which 1,965 are freely accessible and 491 for professionals, requiring a Bachelor’s degree or equivalent, and this year the minimum height requirement has been eliminated for the first time.
A court has been in charge of preparing the set of questions for each of the subjects included in the areas of legal, social and technical-scientific sciences, general knowledge and foreign language. The physical tests had already been held in this call.
Through a ministerial order, the General Directorate of the Police updated last year the norm that regulates the bases of the calls for entry into the National Police, and eliminated a controversial spelling test as an exclusive selection test although this is evaluated within the knowledge test.
