candidate fitness assessment

I received an LOA for West Point around a month ago, and am afraid I'm going to fail the CFA. I'm taking it this Thursday, and have to submit it by 10/15/23. If I send the results on the day I take it or very soon after, if I fail will my LOA be rescinded? I've heard it takes a while for them to...

Hello, I have recently received an LOA for USMA not too long ago, but still, something troubles me. So for context, I only have my statements, nomination, medical qualification, and CFA scores left on my application for me to input. The only part that I am slightly worried about is the CFA. I...

So a couple of days ago, I might have pushed myself too hard during XC practice and I pulled my right legs hamstring. I took an ice bath and put some Bengay on it, did stretches etc. so I thought I’d be fine come CFA time. took the CFA today and after the shuttle run, I can barely walk. My...

I took my CFA today and these are my scores. Basketball throw: 78ft Pull ups: 5 Shuttle run: 9.6 Push ups: 43 Sit ups: 45 Mile run: 8:06 I am a 17 year old male. should I retake it or is this enough to “pass?” thanks in advance.

I have my CFA this Thursday. This is what I can do so far: push ups: 40 Sit ups: 82 Pull ups: 4, sometimes 5 Basketball throw: 67 feet Mile run: 6:50 Shuttle run: 10 I am a 17 year old male. Will my application be disqualified because of these scores?

Hi, I am taking my fitness test for NROTC scholarship tomorrow and am concerned I have the wrong form. When on the website the fitness test instructions state I run a 1.5 mi. But the score sheet only has slot for 1mi. Am I looking at the right thing? Idk if it’s the correct sheet and which is...

Hello! I'm applying for the class of 2025. My due date for my application is due November 1st, so just under 2 months out. I am extremely competitive academically, but the rest of my application is lacking somewhat. I am training religiously for the CFA, but my scores are not what I would like...

I can’t seem to find the papers for where my fitness instructor would record my results for the Army and AF fitness tests. I’ve found some random ones on google search, but no official ones through the website/app. Also, does AROTC require you to run 1 mile or 1.5 like the rest?

I am a rising high school senior who is applying to the academy for the class of 2025. I was hoping someone would have information as to what an average or good score on each of the events in the CFA is. I totally get why they don't give out a minimum score, as they probably do not want the...

I know the averages for the CFA are higher than this, but I still have some time to train before the CFA. Do you think with enough training, I can get my scores up? (I have been training twice daily in strength training and aerobics) These are my current scores in their respective categories...

Hello, Does anybody know what the fitness test for NROTC/AROTC/AFROTC entails? I can’t seem to find it on my app. Are all these assessments different?

Hello, I assume these questions have been asked quite frequently; however, it would be great to get all of the info in one thread. I will be doing my ALO interview on Tuesday, as well as my Candidate Fitness Assessment on Monday. I am wondering how much the CFA will be taken into account for...

Does anyone mind reviewing my scores and speculating my chances for a retake? Basketball Throw: 67 feet Pullups: 16 Shuttle: 9.4 Im cringing just typing this Situps: 78 Pushups: 66 Run: 6:58

Does anyone know how common it is for a candidate to MAX (102') the CFA Basket-Ball Throw? My DS is making great progress toward maxing out all of the other five CFA events, but the B-Ball throw is making the slowest progress. When he first started his CFA workout routine (more than three...

Does anyone know of a private/public gym, high school, college/university campus or military base/armory in Wisconsin that offers to proctor official Candidate Fitness Assessments (CFA) for Service Academy and/or ROTC candidates? My DS has e-mailed the same question to his academy liaisons and...

Based on the RAND Corporation 2015 West Point Admissions Report, page 10, a candidate will earn the full 800 points in the Athletic Activity Level Score (which accounts for 10% of their overall Whole Candidate Score) if they have “a CFA score greater than 650”. This looks like double-credit...

I just took my CFA and I'm pretty worried about my scores: Basketball Throw: 84 ft. Pull-Ups: 18 Shuttle Run: 8.6 sec. Sit-Ups: 80 Push-Ups: 75 Mile: 8:09 I have never been much of a runner and this was my final time taking the exam. Needless to say, I'm a little worried about my mile time. I...

Just putting out my first CFA scores for kids to know what would be a fail. Chugged a monster before hand thinking it would give me a caffeine boost and cramped up in the second lap of the mile. Rescheduled to take again already, Ill be fine I know my mile time on a track is 7:30ish. Event...

I was recently at the Naval Academy Summer Seminar. While I was there we took the CFA. I did very well on the exam, and I do not plan on retaking it. I heard it is possible to transfer the CFA score over to the Air Force Academy. How can I use that CFA exam for my Air Force Academy...

Hey guys if anybody has any time i just wanted to get a ballpark of whether or not it's even worth the application process. I have been an officer for 2 years in my marching band which is a nationally ranking band that has won tons of awards 30 on ACT 55 out of 507 in class 3.86 GPA No...
