In the 2006-2007 catalog was a chart to show averages (you want to do better than average). Here they are:
BB throw - male = 67 ft., female = 41 ft.
Pullups - male = 9, female = 3
Shuttle run - male = 9.1 sec., female = 10 sec.
situps - male = 72, female = 68
pushups - male = 54, female = 33
1 mile run - male = 6:43, female = 8:06
Candidates can take the CFA at Summer Leadership Seminar or one of your school's gym teachers can administer it. It needs to be done before the application deadline.
CFA is a pass/fail test. They will NOT publish the minimum standard and they encourage every applicant to perform their BEST!
The averages seem doable!
Admission criteria for different military colleges:
