Good luck hope it turns out ok for you.
I had two PFT's and a Methacholine test. Don't be too surprised it doesn't get sent to BUMED for a waiver, however, best of luck to you. I was cleared as well.
I have a question if someone wouldn't mind answering for me! Im just looking over my PFT, Does anyone know what the military looks at most on the test? Because all of the numbers are pretty confusing. Thank you ahead of time!
As far as the Physical Fitness Test goes, they normally just look at the overall score. The scores for individual events aren't typically stored or used for anything aside from calculating the overall score.
Oops i'm sorry i meant the Pulmonary function test. But thanks anyways for the info!.
Ahhh, ****, I was wondering how you took a physical fitness test at a doctors office.
I'm not 100%, but I think they look at your total value. According to my recruiter when I first saw him, 70 is the lowest they waiver, and one guy blew a 74 and was waivered in. Should be a percentage number. I'd have to grab my PFT form and look at it, but I'm about to head to work.
