APFT Test Calculator
The APFT Test Calculator estimates your Total Score based on your age, gender, push-ups, sit-ups, and 2-mile run time. This tool helps U.S. Army soldiers quickly determine their physical fitness readiness and current rank status. Whether you are training for a promotion, monitoring your progress, or preparing for basic training, this calculator provides accurate and immediate feedback.
How Total Score Is Calculated
Your Total Score represents your overall performance across three critical physical events required by the U.S. Army. It combines points from the push-up, sit-up, and 2-mile run events based on official standards.
- First, the tool takes your raw performance numbers and cross-references them with the specific scoring chart for your age and gender.
- Next, it assigns a point value between 0 and 100 for each individual event.
- Finally, it sums these three individual scores to calculate your final Total Score, which has a maximum possible value of 300.
This method ensures your results align directly with the Army's official grading rubrics for accuracy.
What Your Total Score Means
Your Total Score tells you if you are physically ready to pass Army requirements and meet career benchmarks. A score of 180 or higher is the minimum passing standard, but you must also score at least 60 points in each event.
Maintaining Standards: If you score between 180 and 239, you meet the basic requirements for service. To stay ready, focus on improving your lowest event score during your next training session.
High Performance: Scores of 240 and above indicate superior physical fitness and readiness. Achieving 270 or higher places you in the "Excellent" category, which can significantly help your promotion packet and leadership evaluations.
Important Note
A high Total Score does not automatically mean you passed. If you score below 60 in any single event, you fail the entire APFT, regardless of your total points.

Use your score breakdown to identify which event needs the most work, and create a workout plan that targets those specific muscle groups twice a week.
