So I took my CFA today and I was just wondering how the followings scores are (by the way, I'm a guy):
Basketball throw: 60 ft
Pull-ups: 10
Shuttle run: 10.3
Sit ups: 65
Push ups: 75
Mile run: 5:42
Please advise. (Please give your honest opinion)
My ALO told me I wasn't allowed to retake the CFA, even before I submitted my scores. I told him that some people on the SA forums said you could retake it as long as it was before the scores were submitted, but my ALO said it was not permitted.
Here's my scores:
Basketball throw: 69 ft
Pull-ups: 3 (Weak, I know.
)
Shuttle run: 8.8 (I had an extremely fast time on my first run but my CFA administer forgot to hit stop on his stopwatch.
I felt clumsy on my second run, but it was the only score I could use.)
Sit ups: 82
Push ups: 40
Mile run: 6:34 (Sad considering I'm a runner and my normal mile time is 5:50, but I did the best I could under the conditions. I'll explain below.)
I actually did my CFA on the second floor of one of the YMCAs here. While running I felt like throwing up, because they had a weird atmosphere in the room. What made it bad was that half of the track was ventilated and half of it wasn't, so half of the track was hot and humid, and the other half of the track was dry and cold. It made me dizzy because I experienced 28 climate shifts during my run!
(14 laps = 1 mile on this track.)
Honestly though, my ALO didn't make the CFA out to be a big deal. He told me I just needed to pass it. Not sure why his view seems to be different from the views of others on here. Maybe it's because the CFA counts for %10 of your WCS? Who knows?
