Swim time is good. Most mentors dont let SO hopefuls do breaststroke though, generally were required to do css.
Your push ups are 5 above minimum.
Your sit ups are 10 above minimum.
Your pull ups are 2 below minimum.
Your run time is a fail.
And unless you have practiced to the same standards as you will be proctored to and witch each activity back to back like it will be on test day, subtract a few reps from each.
If your district has an auto qual option you may get a contract if you pass all the minimums and have a combined run and swim time of Less than 18:00, but AQ is rare and you will most likely need to draft.
For the draft minimum scores are as good as fails. The top scores get picked up. The rest continue to draft until they're either competitive or ship out on their dep'd in rate.
Do more research. BUD/S isnt about passing minimums and surviving. BUD/S is about performance. Performance ensures your survival.
Dont get the wrong message, just being upfront with you.
If your running a 10+ mile on a nice track after a good night sleep, how are you going to do on a 4 mile timed run in boots and sand after shit sleep and a day of strenuous work?
