But keep in mind, the army runs a pt test every 3 months, so do the minimum the first time, pass it, then the next test, go for the max if you want. But right now, on a brand new test that few soldiers have ever taken more than once, it’s not worth risking a fail. Figure the test out, then find the max. which in the Army, these days only counts towards bragging rights. There’s no extra points or badges anymore for maxing it. Only certain high op tempo Schools require a high score other than passing, such as Ranger or sniper or airborne, which require a 90 percent score in each event.
