CFA Scores

<p>I took the CFA at SLS at West Point (wasn't accepted to NASS) this summer and they listed me as "No Risk" on my score sheet. I don't think my scores were that good. </p>

<p>Should I bother retaking the CFA or should I not worry about it?</p>

<p>Scores:</p>

<p>B-ball: 58
Pullups: 7
Shuttle: 9.00
Situps: 51
Pushups: 43
Mile: 8.02</p>

<p>Thanks! </p>

<p>BTW: I posted this same question on the West Point one, but didn't know how many people looked at both.</p>

<p>I assume you are male. And, yes, I would retake. The 3 areas USNA focuses on are situps, push ups and run. Here are the AVERAGE CFA scores for males – which USNA puts out to BGOs and advises that we may put out to candidates:</p>

<p>Mile: 6:40
Pullups 11
Situps 80
Pushups 58
B-Ball 67
Shuttle 8.9</p>

<p>In my view, if you’re significantly below the average, especially in the areas of focus, you should work out to improve your scores and retake the test. You may still be “passing” – USNA will let you know if you’ve failed – but being below average could hurt your overall chances. This is especially true if you are not a varsity athlete, in which case the CFA is weighted more heavily.</p>

<p>I do play varsity lacrosse, but will most likely retake it. </p>

<p>Thank you.</p>
