Post standards currently are 1.5 mile run in under 14 minutes, 20 Push-ups, 29 sit ups, and the wall climb if I'm not mistaken.

Thanks for the advice, I took the written a month ago, I think I did over think the questions but I can't do anything about it now but hope for the best and try again next time if I screwed the pooch. I tried not researching so it didn't psych myself out ahead of time. Tomorrow I'm up for the oral with the Dr.

Not sure where you got those "Post standards".

My academy of 35 or so graduates had about half of us scoring over 600. No one failed out because of PT requirements. No one even came close.

What is the physical ability test required for academy graduation?

Students must take and pass the POST Work Sample Test Battery after completing the physical conditioning program, but before academy graduation. Academies may have a substitute test, or they may have additional tests that students must pass before graduation. The Work Sample Test Battery includes these five events:
OBSTACLE COURSE Run a 99-yard obstacle course consisting of several sharp turns, a number of curb-height obstacles, and a 34-inch high obstacle that must be vaulted
BODY DRAG Lift and drag a 165-pound lifelike dummy 32-feet
CHAIN LINK FENCE Run 5 yards to a 6-foot chain link fence, climb over fence, continue running another 25 yards
SOLID FENCE CLIMB Run 5 yards to a 6 foot solid fence, climb over fence, continue running another 25 yards
500-YARD RUN Run 500 yards


Each of the five events is timed. Student performance times are converted to points and summed. Students must accumulate a total score of 384 points to pass.

I stand corrected.

Also... Holy crap that was awkward.

[Spyder]

dangitt...I want to know what was awkward!

[Just-in]

I didn't edit what was awkward I added it in. The interview was not what I expected. On the way out I went to stand up from the table and shake the doctors hand and the chair hooked a leg on the rug and fell backward. Awkward...

Have you started your academy yet Casper?

Next month.
And that does sound awkward!
Hope the rest went well.

[Spyder]

Haha! Nah, wouldn't worry about that. They get it, they had a hundred other nervous people in there today too.

Got the call today that they will not be moving forward with me in the process, I can apply again in a year. Thanks for all of the advice.
