Age at RTC?

[depsailorgroff]

I will be turning 20 at RTC during P days.

Is there a different standard for PFTs?
I havent seen one for 19 year olds.


If anyone can, could you post the differences if any?
Thanks

I believe there's a slightly higher standard for 17-19, but obviously you don't need to worry about it since you'll be joining the 20-24 bracket.

Oh okay. Well I wish I could find the standard differences. Thanks for the info though

off the top of my head:
17-19 (alpha)
run time 12:30 male, 15:00 female
50 situps
19 pushups female, 50ish male

20-24 (bravo)
run time 13:00 male, 15:30 female
46 situps
16 pushups female, probably 45ish male

But if your birthday's in pdays you won't have to worry about doing anything in alpha time, you don't get cleared to pt until near the end of pdays.

In boot camp, the RDC's expect everyone to make time and everything based on the Alpha male standards. Yes, you only need your age group in reality, but you'll hear it from the RDC's if you pass your bravo time but are short of the Alpha time. Like my RDC's always said "EVERYONE will do 50 sit ups, 50 push ups, and the mile and a half in under 12:30. EVERYONE WILL. Do you all understand?"

Well im not worried. I can do all alpha. I was just wondering if the standards were different.
