CFA requirements?

<p>In 2006 we got a letter from admissions that stated 5 pull ups was the minimum. That said, the letter also said that they required a standing broad jump and a 300 meter shuttle run. Those events are no longer required so it seems that the CFA has changed somewhat.</p>

<p>My plebe son was only able to do 3 pull-ups when he first tried. After several months of practice and working on upper body strength, he was able to do 17. Find a coach or phys ed teacher and have them help you.</p>

<p>I just took mine for the first time my scores where 64ft, 9 pull ups, 8.2 for shuttle run, 75 pushups, 95 situps, and 6:15 for mile</p>

<p>I think cause i maxed 2 that I should be good...</p>

<p>You should be fine with those scores but, for the record, you must score the minimum in each event regardless of how well you did on the others. Congratulations!</p>

<p>I am doing my CFA and submitting it friday. I can all the other catagories to the avrg. except the pull ups. I am going to give it a go and see what happens.</p>

<p>There is no "5 pull-up" minimum on the CFA anymore for KP.</p>

<p>I personally know of candidates who received appointments last year (2012) to KP with less than 5 pull-ups.</p>

<p>I passed, thanks for the help, i will post back when i get my response from the academy</p>
