So I'm taking the CFA on Friday in order to get my stuff in for early action. I'm all set on everything except this.
However, there are some concerns about how it's scored. I haven't been able to get past 45-47 feet on the basketball throw, but I am able to do the average for pullups, max pushups/crunches, and do well on the shuttle run and the mile run (I run cross country so my mile time can be around six minutes, last time I checked.)
So my question is that, since the CFA is pass/fail, how is it scored? If you don't throw 69' on the basketball throw like the average is, do they boot you out of admissions and tell you to come back next year? This is my only real point of concern about now. Mostly the basketball throw. So I'm worried that, unless I'm somehow able to add twenty feet to my throw (and that's the only event I feel I'm doing less than the average), it's going to fail the entire section for me.
