Commissioner Dawn M. Pinnock suggests that offering more exams could potentially shorten the 219-day timeline for publishing lists.
- The Department generally averages 108 exams per year.
- This fiscal year, they are on pace to administer over 200 exams.
- Increasing the number of exams could expedite the delivery of exam results.
- Council Member David M. Carr expresses concerns from civil servants wanting to advance, hindered by delays in publishing the exam lists.

So you you don't think that you'd be able to improve much on that 219 calendar days, generally speaking.

I think that potentially we can offer more exams.

We generally have, like, an average of 108 exams a year.

This fiscal year, I believe, that we are on pace for over 200.

So it could potentially have us deliver more exams.

As I hear from a number of folks who have taken an exam, already civil servants.

They're hoping to move up the ladder of an agency and a posting becomes available, but the list hasn't been published yet.
