It’s not a matter of passing or failing. More people apply to become cops than they have slots in the academy. The role of the exam is basically to sort the list of applicants to the police academy (along with veteran status, residency status, language abilities and anything else mandated by the civil service law.)
Yes, the test is easy. Scoring a 70% will leave you eligible for the academy (assuming all other requirements to be a cop are met.) But the point is to try to give some kind of reasonable score that allows them to objectively sort applicants.
