Values read from the official AFPC PFRA scoring chart under AFMAN 36-2905 (24 March 2026), the current test of record. Run minimum is the slowest passing time; run maximum is the time for full cardio points.
The PFRA uses a two-mile run (or 20-meter HAMR shuttle) instead of the retired 1.5-mile run, a 50/15/15/20 component weighting with the waist-to-height ratio scored rather than pass/fail, higher component minimums, and testing twice a year.
The tables above and this calculator score against the current PFRA standard. See the official PFRA scoring charts on afpc.af.mil and AFMAN 36-2905 for the source charts.
Important Considerations
- Minimums are Mandatory: You must meet the minimum standard for your age group in cardio, strength, and core to pass, regardless of your total score.
- Target > 75 Points: The sum of your component points must equal 75 or higher. Bare minimum performance in cardio, strength, and core scores well below that on its own; body composition and any margin above the floors make up the difference.
- Exemptions: If you are exempt from a component, your score is calculated based on the remaining components.
