Bumping this CFA question up from 2022 to give an update. Hoping this gives others some insight into how thin the line is between getting an appointment and not. My DD failed the CFA the first time she took it, thought the journey was over, but was miraculously asked to take it again, and...

Finale update for everyone. Thanks again for all the advice! She used the full time allowed and passed! Got her mile down to 8min flat (on a snow covered track), got the shuttle down to 9.5 sec, and sit-ups up to 60. Everything else was about the same. Her JROTC Nomination came in as...

wow! Congrats, that was fast. Congressional nominations have not even been released yet in our State.

UPDATE! We took all of your advice and worked on technique and run strategy for the past week. She did a test this morning with her Admin with the intent on it being a 'practice'. Then would retake for the final time at the very end of her 30 day retake window. Her results were way better...

Thank you for this! Great info. (She is following along with all of this advice as well and is very appreciative.) The testing official did note the weather (21 degrees and windy) so maybe that gave her the option to retake? However, the results e-mail/retake notification came very fast...

Thanks! That was the one event during the test that she was disappointed in. It was 21 degrees out and she didn't think she did a good job pacing herself. Most of the practice runs have been in the 8 to 830 range. Her PR is a 738 during a raider competition.

Thanks for the input! We thought about a women's size basketball, but the instructions say it has to be men's size. I told her no one would notice and she said 'No Dad, integrity first'.... if she gets in they will be lucky to have her. :)

Thanks! Yes, we have the bbtoss video and it greatly helped her. she went from 22ft to 36ft using that.

Thanks! yes, I feel like she is close. We are hopefully going to get some clarification. Thanks for sharing your experience!

yes, they did ask her to retake it with in 30 days.

Thanks! Yes, those are the averages from the USAFA web site. We know the scores are 'below average' but based on the Assessment calculator (I know , 3rd party) she should have 'passed'. She is reaching out to her ALO to see if she can get any more advice as well.

We have been training for 20months on the CFA, when we started my daughter could do 1 push up, one sit up, and her mile time was 13min. Super proud of her progress! The scores below are from her CFA this morning. She got an e-mail notifying her of a ‘fail’ but when I input the numbers into the...
