Understand that you must know the data needed to pass
every one of many different 100-question tests.
(so knowing only 100 questions is a waste of time!)
NY STATE-ISSUED DEFINITION OF 'PRIVATE INVESTIGATOR':
"A private investigator is hired to obtain information regarding the identity,
habits, conduct, movements, whereabouts, affiliations, associations,
transactions,
reputation, or character of any person or group of persons.
A private investigator may also conduct investigations regarding the credibility
of witnesses;
the whereabouts of missing persons; the location of missing persons;
the location or recovery of lost or stolen property; and the causes and
origin of-
or responsibility for- fires, libels, or losses."
TESTIMONIAL: "Your stuff was good! I couldn't have passed without your help." - PB

NY PI test secret #2:
Most test-takers do the worst on
BUSINESS MANAGEMENT questions.
These are the ones that many test-takers do bad on!
Records - Employees - Legal Requirements
Studying helps prepare you for these-- and much more!
NY PI test secret #2:
Most test-takers do the worst on
BUSINESS MANAGEMENT questions.
These are the ones that many test-takers do bad on!
Records - Employees - Legal Requirements
Studying helps prepare you for these-- and much more!
Here are seven NY PI test 'tips' to know: 
1- Watch out for 'double-negatives'!
2- Some answer choices are VERY similar,
with only small differences!
3- A NY PI must also know guard and bail law for the test,
even if he/she will never do bail or security work!
4- Retired cops are extra-weak with the 'employee'
and 'business management' portions.
5- Some are 'opinion' questions,
but you better have the 'right' opinion!
6- Where most other PI license tests ask
you to choose the 'best' answer choice,
you might find a few on the NY PI tests that actually ask
you
to choose the 'wrong' or 'least-likely' answer choice!
7- Look out for time-eater 'paragraph questions':
Many test questions follow the reading of a long paragraph,
then the actual questions are about that paragraph.
Some ask 'What was most important about that paragraph?'
8- Prepare for choosing 'Desirable' or 'Undesirable' as answer choices.
NY PI test secret #3
Watch out for these types of answer choices:
SIMILAR
Sometimes more than one answer choice
will look the same-- but there will be
a small
difference if you look close!
Studying helps prepare you for these-- and much more!
We are NOT a boring seminar!
We are NOT a boring online prep! 
We are NOT a crummy pdf download!
We are NOT a confusing multiple-choice prep! 
We hear the same thing, every week:
"The material from the State didn't help at all".
- or -
"The stuff the State sent me was only good for a few of the 100 questions".
- or -
"I have failed the PI license test 3 times, and each time it was a different test".
Well, this is TRUE. And here's why-it-is-what-it-is.
The State is here to regulate you, NOT to educate you.
They provide you information on things that they can fine ($) you for.
They do NOT help you with the majority of the test.
It is an 'experienced-based' examination.
Most of the test is about knowledge you supposedly have from not only from
PI work, but also from running a business and from being an employer.
Plus, you need to know about the bail business and about the security business,
EVEN if you dont plan to ever do either of those!
The truth is: you do not know most of these things, causing most to fail.
I just want to do private investigation work!"
ANSWER: "It is because Licensed Private Investigators and their employees can engage
in the business of bail enforcement without further licensing requirements or training."
NY PI test secret #4:
Many test-takers have a tough time
with this type of answer choices:
'Choose the BEST answer'.
You might find questions where more
than one of the answer choices is correct.
But one choice is a little better than the others.
Studying helps prepare you for these-- and much more!
--your pass results are good for 2 years
for you to apply for a NY PI license with
--after passing, you can apply for a NY PI license:
a 2-year PI license costs
$400 for an individual PI license
or
$500 for a corporate PI license
(expect 6 weeks of processing . . .)
Where most other PI license tests
ask you to choose the 'best' answer choice,
you might find a few on the NY PI tests that actually ask
you
to choose the 'wrong' or 'least-likely' answer choice!

Many who complain about failing this test say it was because of 'opinion questions'!
We agree-- tests should use questions of definite answers, never opinions.
What if your experience gives you a different opinion on a
question than the test writer has? YOU get it wrong then!
Oh well, be prepared to answer a few 'opinion' questions.
Knowing our material will give you a 'heads up' on this type of question too.

A very scary 
piece of advice:
The NY Division of Licensing Services says in blue text
on their PI license and examination page, for PIs:
"It is your reponsibility to understand the
Private Investigators, Bail Enforcement Agents,
Watch Guard or Patrol Agencies and
Security Guards License Law."
That's a clue for you that there might be some 'cross-over' questions.
So, one of the things we include to help with that:
Pages of data about 'Bail Enforcement Agents', 'WGPs', and 'Security'!
Both choices include more than 100 pages of 'giant (8 1/2'' X 11'') paper flashcards'
of NY PI questions with answers and/or other NY PI business knowledge!
Combine these 100 pages with the other 200 questions & answers just about
terminology and the confusing formal New York PI Licensing Law topics
& the General Business Law Articles topics, and you have a powerful package
for help with passing the test and for help with your new PI business!
Some of the EXACT topics of many of these 'giant flashcards'
are shown
below, listed as numbered choices!
Note:
with most of the questions included in our package are answers.
Only a few will have no answer; consider these to either
be opinion-based or as a small research project!
Now include a 'Sexual Harassment In The Workplace' section!
Important not just because there are might be license test questions
about sexual harassment, but also because this can be a source
of lawsuits against licensed Private Investigators and their clients.
Including datasheets of:
--What is Sexual Harassment?
--Examples of Sexual Harassment
--Methods to reduce or prevent Sexual Harassment
--What is 'Quid Pro Quo' Sexual Harassment?
--What is 'Hostile Workplace Sexual Harassment'?
--Federal government-issued information about sexual harassment
---and more!

BEWARE OF USING THE WRONG MATERIAL TO PREPARE WITH!
Beware of generic 'covers all states' private investigator test advice!
1. This is NOT the little yellow & black paperback Exam Secrets book or flashcards written in Texas
and
said to be usable for all states-- we have a current edition of these, and while interesting,
they are totally generic and have very little to do with what is on the New York PI test!
And we have provided proper help when persons have failed after paying for a 'seminar'.
2. OUCH! Taking advantage of excited viewers of those several exaggerated
TV shows about how cool the PI business is, some people are making big
$$$$$ by selling 'Anyone Can Start A Great PI Business"-type books:
but
they fail to advertise that specific paid experience in NY is required first!
Call us for the exact licensing requirements, even for application help.
We also include some
and 
idea pages, to get your thinking going!
Yes, we see it every year or two.
Over and over and over, yet another person who passes the license
test decides to offer 'test prep help' because he/she passed the test.
Sadly, even if they remembered every
question that was on their test,
that doesn't cover the many other versions of the test.
Some even took their own NY license tests only a year or two ago--
some have never even passed a PI license test themselves!
Avoid the clowns.
Avoid the phonies. 
Only www.thePIgroup.com has our
2025 NY PI study material package!
We have helped more than 4500 pass their
various states' licensing tests nationwide--
more than 300 in the past year.
Nobody else has even helped 30 to pass in the last year!
Our material includes 'trigger questions' (related sample questions
that are not actually connected to any of the multiple repossession agency tests,
planted within as to later prove plagiarism-- catches our competitors every time!)
EVIDENCE and CRIME SCENE sections are now included.
A SECRET:
Reading our printed paper NY PI materials, over and over,
studying around your daily duties,
or sitting in your car, or even while resting in bed,
is FAR more effective then trying
to study on-line or at a 'seminar'.
Do one final review while parked outside
the test center for your NY PI test!

(YOUR VISIT HAS BEEN LOGGED)
You can choose the full package above,
or choose just the most critically-needed items:
Frequently asked: "Can I order just the 200 questions with answers?"
Answer: Yes, but this is NOT recommended. Those 200 only help with two main topics.
The more than 100 available datapages provide other important test help.
Database Company Site Inspections
Did you know that many database companies will not
give you an account until you pass a 'site visit'?
They don't tell you what they are looking for, so you can't 'prepare'.
Many visits fail, and usually neither the inspector nor
the database company will not tell why it failed!
It's hard to pass if you are in an office building--
but it is far harder to pass if your office is at home.
We have the secret list of what they might ask during the site visit--
and what they are secretly looking for!
Ask us to include this secret list, and we will.
Simulated Testing for

After several requests asking for a 
version,
we formed a plan-- but we don't recommend it as the best choice.
If we provided you only all the pages of paper material,
with no binder, no dividers, maybe not even any staples(!),
perhaps we could shave off 
for such a bare-bones 'economy' version.
While it would have every page that the other version does,
we don't think it's a great idea. We think, actually we KNOW,
that our proper assembly into a binder with dividers and with
related
items stapled together makes it a better study tool.
ORDERING INFORMATION

--add $35 shipping
or we can use YOUR
FedEx or UPS--
2. Send a simple money order for your
package and shipping, and your package goes
out same-day money order is received and processed

NY PI and your name and shipping address
and the name of the person taking the test;
there is NO connection to this order to
any
text or email you may have sent)

4. From 1990 through 2024, we took credit cards,
electronic payments, PayPal, Western Union, etc.
NO MORE.
We're tired of the 'bad numbers', the delays,
the costs,
the 'bank mistakes', the excuses, 'its my wife's fault', and so on.
We make too little on these 7-pound
Package B packages for such headaches.
So
unless we are to raise our prices, if you can't come in to
pick up
a package then there's only one way to send a shipment to you
if you need it faster then by sending payment by regular mail:
you simply overnight us a money order. It doesn't have to be a costly and
time-consuming one issued by a bank--
a grocery store or 7-11 or post office money order is fine.
NO MORE
NEXT-DAY DELIVERY
PLEASE DON'T ASK FOR THIS
TO BE SENT NEXT-DAY / OVERNIGHT.
We sell to all states. Callers only about one state,
our New York products, say "I gotta have it right now.
Send it overnight. I will pay extra. I can't wait".
Then when they hear the cost of sending
something this heavy overnight, suddenly
they no longer 'need' it overnight.
We won't send this overnight anymore.
We send by Regular UPS.

New York Private Investigator
PI license test
study material and NY PI test sample test questions
New York PI license test
Do you have a law-enforcement background?
We not only help you with the New York Private Investigator license test,
but we help to 'level the playing field' for you to soon
compete with PIs with their years of private experience.
Look at the list below this that shows the more than 50 items included in it.
It would take you many many years of private practice to gather that knowledge!
More than half of those who have used our packages came from
a police, sheriff, or corrections career.
We have assisted from all ranks, from Officer
or Deputy and Detective through Chief of Police!
We questions!
Many who complain about failing this test say it was because of 'opinion questions'!
We agree-- tests should use questions of definite answers, never opinions.
What if your experience gives you a different opinion on a
question than the test writer has? YOU get it wrong then!
Oh well, be prepared to answer a few 'opinion' questions.
Knowing our material will give you a 'heads up' on this type of question too.
Most choose the popular
$220 'Package B' instead!
Call for the contents of this more compact assistance-
smaller, yet 7 pounds and about 600 pages,
with the portions most say was needed! Plus shipping.
A very scary piece of advice:
The NY Division of Licensing Services says in blue text
on their PI license and examination page, for PIs:
"It is your reponsibility to understand the
Private Investigators, Bail Enforcement Agents,
Watch Guard or Patrol Agencies and
Security Guards License Law."
That's a clue for you that there might be some 'cross-over' questions.
So, one of the things we include to help with that:
Pages of data about 'Bail Enforcement Agents', 'WGPs', and 'Security'!
Both choices include more than 100 pages of 'giant (8 1/2'' X 11'') paper flashcards'
of NY PI questions with answers and/or other NY PI business knowledge!
Combine these 100 pages with the other 200 questions & answers just about
terminology and the confusing formal New York PI Licensing Law topics
& the General Business Law Articles topics, and you have a powerful package
for help with passing the test and for help with your new PI business!
Some of the EXACT topics of many of these 'giant flashcards'
are shown
below, listed as numbered choices!
Note:
with most of the questions included in our package are answers.
Only a few will have no answer; consider these to either
be opinion-based or as a small research project!
Now include a 'Sexual Harassment In The Workplace' section!
Important not just because there are might be license test questions
about sexual harassment, but also because this can be a source
of lawsuits against licensed Private Investigators and their clients.
Including datasheets of:
--What is Sexual Harassment?
--Examples of Sexual Harassment
--Methods to reduce or prevent Sexual Harassment
--What is 'Quid Pro Quo' Sexual Harassment?
--What is 'Hostile Workplace Sexual Harassment'?
--Federal government-issued information about sexual harassment
---and more!

BEWARE OF USING THE WRONG MATERIAL TO PREPARE WITH!
Beware of generic 'covers all states' private investigator test advice!
1. This is NOT the little yellow & black paperback Exam Secrets book or flashcards written in Texas
and
said to be usable for all states-- we have a current edition of these, and while interesting,
they are totally generic and have very little to do with what is on the New York PI test!
And we have provided proper help when persons have failed after paying for a 'seminar'.
2. OUCH! Taking advantage of excited viewers of those several exaggerated
TV shows about how cool the PI business is, some people are making big
$$$$$ by selling 'Anyone Can Start A Great PI Business"-type books:
but
they fail to advertise that specific paid experience in NY is required first!
Call us for the exact licensing requirements, even for application help.
We also include some
and
idea pages, to get your thinking going!
Yes, we see it every year or two.
Over and over and over, yet another person who passes the license
test decides to offer 'test prep help' because he/she passed the test.
Sadly, even if they remembered every
question that was on their test,
that doesn't cover the many other versions of the test.
Some even took their own NY license tests only a year or two ago--
some have never even passed a PI license test themselves!
Avoid the clowns.
Avoid the phonies.
Only www.thePIgroup.com has our
2025 NY PI study material package!
We have helped more than 4500 pass their
various states' licensing tests nationwide--
more than 300 in the past year.
Nobody else has even helped 30 to pass in the last year!
Our material includes 'trigger questions' (related sample questions
that are not actually connected to any of the multiple repossession agency tests,
planted within as to later prove plagiarism-- catches our competitors every time!)

Frequently asked: "Can I order just the 200 questions with answers?"
Answer: Yes, but this is NOT recommended. Those 200 only help with two main topics.
The more than 100 available datapages provide other important test help.
Database Company Site Inspections
Did you know that many database companies will not
give you an account until you pass a 'site visit'?
They don't tell you what they are looking for, so you can't 'prepare'.
Many visits fail, and usually neither the inspector nor
the database company will not tell why it failed!
It's hard to pass if you are in an office building--
but it is far harder to pass if your office is at home.
We have the secret list of what they might ask during the site visit--
and what they are secretly looking for!
Ask us to include this secret list, and we will.

After several requests asking for a
version,we formed a plan-- but we don't recommend it as the best choice.
If we provided you only all the pages of paper material,
with no binder, no dividers, maybe not even any staples(!),
perhaps we could shave off
for such a bare-bones 'economy' version.While it would have every page that the other version does,
we don't think it's a great idea. We think, actually we KNOW,
that our proper assembly into a binder with dividers and with
related items stapled together makes it a better study tool.

time-consuming one issued by a bank--
a grocery store or 7-11 or post office money order is fine.
NO MORE
NEXT-DAY DELIVERY
PLEASE DON'T ASK FOR THIS
TO BE SENT NEXT-DAY / OVERNIGHT.
We sell to all states. Callers only about one state,
our New York products, say "I gotta have it right now.
Send it overnight. I will pay extra. I can't wait".
Then when they hear the cost of sending
something this heavy overnight, suddenly
they no longer 'need' it overnight.
We won't send this overnight anymore.
We send by Regular UPS.
