I'm currently trying to knock out my CFA. Honestly, I also got to knock out my SAT as well but I'm taking precautions for that and currently am studying for that. I'm not in High School. I'm already in the Air Force as enlisted. So I'm using my Base gym. Currently I need advice. I did a mock CFA...
Hello! This is my first time posting on this feed! Currently an 11th grader in the last semester of junior year.
I will be an attendant of Session 1 of SLE this year, and I am wondering if anyone can help me figure out if my score for the CFA will result in a pass (Or at least an above average...
I have training for the CFA since February and have rapidly increased my pushups, pullups, and sit ups. I assumed that my basketball throw would also increase, but it has stayed around a 60 foot throw.
I know that you can't tell how good of a candidate I am based off of this; I'm just looking for advice.
I am a junior in high school. I have a 3.5 GPA (unweighted), accepted to Boy's State, volunteer firefighter, Varsity XCTF, 1410 SAT, and a 5 on the AP World. In September I attended a local...
I've been working on the CFA for a while, and since i'm a runner (XC) the mile should be an issue. The pushups, pull-ups and sit-ups, are the biggest issues as they take more time to prepare for. I've been working on them for a while, but the push-ups and sit ups still don't meet the minimum...
I believe I am a fairly strong applicant 4.4w 3.9 uw gpa good extracurriculars and 1510 SAT, although I plan to retake. I am wondering if it's best to do it during this week or if I can wait for the weekend as I've been very sick this past weekend and was planning on writing the essay now but a...
I took my USMA CFA two days ago and I failed it but they asked me to retest and that'll be today, two days later. Below are my scores but I'm very worried because I'm not sure how to feel about my overall application. I couldn't submit my application any sooner because I was waiting for my...
I'm a 17-year-old female currently interested in applying to West Point or the Naval Academy. My academics are excellent, so I'm not too worried about that, but I'm not very physically capable. I'm scrawny and the only exercise I typically get is from soccer games/practice or running around at...
Deadline for CFA for usafa is november fifteenth. Does that deadline mean the form needs to be uploaded to the application portal by that date? Or it needs to be reviewed and found acceptable and shows completed by the academy? Emailed team blue about this, but figured I'd ask her as well as I...
Hey for the kids/parents who have went to Inspire did you/your child take the CFA? Would you recommend taking it even if you know you won’t get a good score at the moment just to show that you are trying? and if you/your child did take it or did go to Inspire what were your scores and did most...
Hello all. I submitted my CFA back in December. About 6 weeks after I submitted I was asked to re film my videos. I studied the videos, corrected my form and resubmitted my videos a little less than two weeks after the request was made. It's now been about 5 weeks since I resubmitted my videos...
Hello! I'm new to this forum and I wanted to inquire about the order in which the respective events in the CFA can be completed. Do they have to be completed in a particular order or can candidates themselves arrange as they see fit?
Thank you!
Why do service academies care about varsity letters if there is the Candidate Fitness Assessment? This isn’t a problem for me as I plan on doing varsity anyways.
Just a question I have :)
Something that just came to my mind.. Are you allowed to drink pre workout, energy boost drinks, coffee, etc right before the CFA in order to increase the energy you have to do it without being completely winded? Are there are rules against it?
Hello, I’m taking my CFA for my USAFA application in about two weeks! However, I’m extremely nervous because I know it is pass/fail. I do not meet the average scores on some of the physical tests but on others I exceed it. My question is that what qualifies you to fail your CFA? I am dreading...
Hey guys, I have wanted to go to USAFA since I was a kid. My mom came to the US as a Chinese immigrant, and got her MBA in Business. We've worked really hard, and I want to give back to the United States while also following my passion. My dad was in the Air Force for over 20 years, and I too...
