Cyprus Police & Fire Exam · Give each week a clear focus.

8 weeks · About 7 hours per week

Week 1

Greek Language and Comprehension

  • Diagnose your current Greek level by completing one full-length reading-comprehension and grammar diagnostic under timed conditions and recording your error types.

  • Build a personal vocabulary log of 60 formal/administrative Greek terms (e.g. αίτηση, βεβαίωση, αρμόδιος, παράβαση) with example sentences drawn from official notices.

  • Practise skimming three short official/administrative Greek texts and writing a one-sentence summary of each in Greek.

  • Review Greek noun declension and verb aspect (παρατατικός vs αόριστος) by rewriting 15 sentences from present to past.

Your checkpoint

A dated diagnostic report listing your score per section, your top five recurring error categories, and a 60-entry vocabulary log.

Week 2

Greek Language and Comprehension

  • Complete four timed reading passages (one per session) and mark every question you answered from guesswork rather than textual evidence.

  • Draft two short formal Greek texts (a 120-word report and a 120-word formal letter) using correct register and connector phrases.

  • Drill 30 synonym/antonym and 'choose the correct word for the context' items, then write the rule that decided each answer.

  • Read one Greek news article aloud daily and note five new expressions per article.

Your checkpoint

Two corrected written samples plus a table of 20 context-vocabulary items with the deciding clue for each.

Week 3

Cyprus Constitution, Law and Citizen Rights

  • Map the structure of the Cyprus Constitution (fundamental rights, separation of powers, the offices of the Republic) into a one-page diagram from memory, then check and correct it.

  • Summarise in your own words the core citizen rights (equality, liberty, fair trial, expression, assembly, property) and name the article area each belongs to.

  • Explain, in writing, how a law is challenged before the Supreme Court and what administrative recourse means.

  • Answer 40 multiple-choice constitutional-law items and log every wrong answer with the correct principle.

Your checkpoint

A one-page from-memory constitutional map plus an error log of at least 40 answered items.

Week 4

Cyprus Constitution, Law and Citizen Rights & Police and Fire Service Organisation and Duties

  • Write a 300-word plain-Greek summary of the main police duties (prevention, patrol, investigation, public assistance) and the limits placed on police powers.

  • Compare police and fire service command structures and rank hierarchy in a two-column table built from official public information.

  • Describe the citizen's obligations during a police check (identification, questioning, arrest, detention limits) in a checklist.

  • Complete 30 scenario items on lawful vs unlawful police action and justify each choice in one sentence.

Your checkpoint

A two-column police/fire structure table plus a citizen-rights-during-police-contact checklist of at least 10 points.

Week 5

Police and Fire Service Organisation and Duties & General Knowledge and Current Affairs

  • Outline the fire service's prevention, rescue and firefighting duties and the safety rules for the public in an emergency.

  • Build a timeline of 15 current Cypriot public-affairs facts (institutions, offices, recent institutional changes) each with a source and date.

  • Practise 20 scenario questions on inter-agency cooperation and emergency call handling, writing the correct sequence of actions.

  • Summarise one week of Cypriot news in 200 words of Greek, focusing on public safety and governance.

Your checkpoint

A sourced 15-item current-affairs timeline plus a 200-word Greek news summary.

Week 6

Logical Reasoning and Numerical Ability

  • Solve 40 numerical problems (percentages, ratios, averages, unit conversion, distance/speed/time) under a 60-minute timer and record time per item.

  • Complete 30 logical-reasoning sets (sequences, syllogisms, odd-one-out, spatial rotation) and write the reasoning rule for each type.

  • Build a one-page formula sheet covering percentage change, weighted averages and rate problems, then use it on a fresh 20-item set.

  • Review every error and re-solve it without notes until correct twice.

Your checkpoint

A timed 40-item numerical test score sheet with per-item timing and a completed formula sheet.

Week 7

Health, Safety and First Aid & Information Technology and Digital Skills

  • Demonstrate the correct sequence for adult CPR, recovery position and choking response by writing a step list and rehearsing it aloud without notes.

  • Rank 12 emergency scenarios (bleeding, burns, fracture, heatstroke, fainting) by first action and justify each ranking.

  • Complete 25 IT items on file management, spreadsheets, email security and passwords, and correct every error.

  • Write a short protocol for handling a data-protection-sensitive request, naming the principles you apply.

Your checkpoint

A one-page first-aid action card (CPR, choking, bleeding, burns) plus a corrected 25-item IT quiz.

Week 8

Greek Language and Comprehension & Logical Reasoning and Numerical Ability & Cyprus Constitution, Law and Citizen Rights

  • Sit two full mixed mock exams under real timing and score each domain separately.

  • Re-teach your five weakest topics from earlier weeks by writing a half-page explanation for each without notes.

  • Re-drill only the error-log items from weeks 1-7 until you reach 90% accuracy.

  • Plan exam-day logistics: timing per section, order of answering, and a checklist of documents and rules.

Your checkpoint

Two scored mock exams with a domain-by-domain comparison table and a written exam-day plan.

Milestones

Week 2: You can summarise an unseen 250-word formal Greek text in three accurate Greek sentences within 10 minutes, and your reading diagnostic score has improved by at least 10 percentage points over week 1.

Week 4: You can reproduce the constitutional structure diagram from blank paper with no more than two omissions, and score at least 70% on a 40-item constitutional-law set.

Week 6: You finish a 40-item numerical test within 60 minutes at 75% or better, and can name the reasoning rule for each logic item type you missed.

Week 8: Both mock exams are complete, every domain is at or above 70%, and no domain sits more than 15 points below your best domain.
