Completed the CFA

<p>I just completed my CFA today. I got the following score:
BBall:64
Pullups: 8 (Could have done better)
Shuttle Run: 9.7
Situps: 80
Pushups: 75 (Max)
Mile Run: 7:15</p>

<p>Overall I am happy with the score. I definitly know that I could have gone a little higher with the pullups, but I didnt want to blow my strength. I did get it "over the line" for USMA though. Anyway, I was dogging during the mile run, I didnt pace myself properly during the first lap. Anyone know how competative these scores are?</p>

<p>So if you guys wanna learn from my experieince. I pretty much prepared about 2-3 months in advance, I ran everyday, and pushuped, situped every day too. I just dled the Navy Seal Workout and followed that. Also I found that, for me, pullups were the easiest to make improvements on. In fact, I went from 1/2 of a pullup to 8 or 9 in about 3 weeks. I found that negative pullups were the most helpful.</p>

<p>you sound like me! I worked for 2-3 months with running every day. I went from a 9 min mile to a 7:23 one. My pull-ups went from 5 to 11 also! Your score is about average if not a bit above. If your other parts of the app are strong, then your CFA looks good. </p>

<p>Good luck!</p>

<p>It blows my mind when people say 75 is average. do you know what the max on the apft for pu is? 72. So I wonder if everyones pu are to standard. 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 3, :)</p>

<p>I don't mean everything was average. Overall it would be average by having max on some and below average or average on others. Most looked over average or better, so I thought it was above average.</p>

<p>hey how bad are these scores... do u think i might have passed?</p>

<p>basketball throw: 79 ft
pull ups: 6
shuttle run: 8.4 sec.
push ups: 44
sit ups: 75
1 mile run: 6:55</p>

<p>the pull ups and sit ups are pretty crappy. but i dunno could i have passed anyway?</p>

<p>you passed</p>

<p>yes, you passed. </p>

<p>I wish more people realized that you don't have to max out everything to be ok. Average is average for them, that's why they have it.</p>

<p>im horrible at situps... must be my big head.</p>

<p>lol. its all good.</p>
