Took my CFA on the 29th (way too close to the due date!) and thought that my scores would be passing, even if they were a bit below average. My mile time was a bit off, because I sprained my ankle earlier this month and haven't been training it to let my ankle heal. I emailed Team Blue and they...

I had my administrator submit my scores into the portal today. The CFA section simply said "completed", but never indicated if I passed or fail. Will I receive a email if I failed? My Scores (Male): Pushups: 57 Modified Crunches: 70 Basketball Throw: 78 feet Shuttle Run: 9.3 seconds Mile...

Hi all, thank you in advance for the input! Context: 5' 2.5" 117lb female. Running is not my strong suit, though I've been working on it. My last CFA mile time (3 weeks ago) was 9:33, and while it passed for USMA, USAFA requested a retest. I retook it today, and I know that my other scores are...

I've just completed my initial CFA (male) for the USAFA, which was - 80ft basketball throw - 12 pullups - 7.6s shuttle run - 64 situps - 50 pushups - 8:03 mile so I'm concerned about how well I'm going to score on the physical qualifications or if I'm even qualified in the eyes of admissions...

Hey! I took my first official attempt at the CFA today, and received an email that I failed to pass at least one event (🥲). My numbers are definitely not spectacular. Any advice to get my scores up for my next attempt? I’ve been using the preparation guide so far. (For reference, I am a 5’6...

I'm a female applying for 2030 and I'm concerned about my ability to pass the CFA. These are my current scores that I predict: Basketball throw: 22 ft Pull-Ups/FAH: Cannot do a pull-up but I can do a 15-20 second FAH. Shuttle-Run: I don't have a specific time for this, but I'll probably be...

I have not been training enough and my deadline is Nov 30. How long should I give myself to retake it if i have to? Because I know for sure I am going to fail the first time. I might not even make it the second try because I just haven’t been training. I am genuinely worried.

I am currently a Junior Female in High School, trying to go to the Academies, preferably West Point, my dream school. I can definitely see myself making improvements, but I still have a long way to go, especially physically. Overall Academics: GPA Unweighted: 4.0 GPA Weighted: 4.311 Class...

Hello! This is my first post on this website! 😁I am applying to USNA for the class of 2030. This school is my top choice and I recently attended NASS which truly was the best experience of my life and I would say sealed the deal for me. My academics are pretty strong; as a homeschooler, I dual...

Now that I've been through the entire applicant process as a HS applicant, becoming a foundation scholar set to attend with the class of 2030 at USNA, I thought of giving out some handy tips and tricks for my soon-to-be fellow midshipmen entering with me next summer and future candidates. These...

My DS took the CFA at the SLE, and the status on his portal has changed to ‘Received’. Does this mean he has passed, or is it still pending until he receives a decision letter?

I’m going to SLE session 2 and we have to take the CFA on the first day there. Someone said that the CFA score I earn at SLE will go into my candidate profile and that I’d have two months to retake it if I don’t do well. Is this true? Before SLE I expected to take my CFA around...

My son completed most things except CFA. He got the results as below, but got an email that his CFA is not standard. Based on the email, his CFA results are above average except pull-ups. Do you know what's the minimum counts of pull-ups? Basket ball throw: 73, 74, 79 Pull ups: 3 Shuttle Run: 8...

DS is a junior and where we live the extreme heat could influence the outcome of his scores. Can he take the CFA at the end of April even though official application doesn’t open until July? He will also apply to USNA and he already has a qualified evaluator.

I'm in the process of submitting my CFA to USAFA, and while I'm (somewhat) confident I should get qualified for USAFA, I don't know if USNA's standards are different. Would anyone know if these are passing? I have my MOC Interview this weekend, and I would like to let them know that I have...

My CFA in the USAFA portal still reads 'received' after one month. I'm worried it may have something to do with my scores. My sit-up score is particularly low. This was because I started early and those reps didn't count, but JROTC instructor (who administered my test) said that I'd be fine. Do...

Took my second CFA attempt today, heres the scores: Pushups: 28 Modified Crunches: 88 Basketball Throw: 42 feet Shuttle Run: 9.3 seconds Mile Run: 7:22 (min and sec) Pullups: 12 Purely looking at this, how does it look? I know if you fail one event you fail the whole thing, and they don’t...

I've completed my application and I want to get it submitted. Would it be possible to change my CFA Administrator in the portal if I need to change it later down the road? (I haven't taken the CFA yet).

I am trying to find the sheet that I can print out to give my CFA Examiner for USAFA, but I can not find it. The CFA section of the candidate packet states that you should "Give your examiner the CFA Score Sheet you printed from your online status page and ask them to record your performance on...

I am hoping to be admitted into USMA for the class of 2029, and I am worried about the CFA. I am hoping for some tips, feedback, and advice. I will upload my scores here daily (hopefully). 27 OCT 24 Basketball Throw - 44 Ft Pull-Ups - 9 Shuttle Run - 9.82 Situps - 91 Push-Ups - 52 Mile Run...
