PHYSICAL FITNESS TEST (PFT) SELF EVALUATION
This is a self-evaluation to assess your preparedness for the FBI-administered Physical Fitness
Test (PFT) required to advance in the Special Agent Selection System (SASS). Please visit
our website at for information and a video
regarding the PFT administration protocols, scoring scales, and applicable strength and
conditioning guidelines. If you have questions regarding the PFT, please contact your Applicant
Coordinator.
You will not be considered for the next Phase of the SASS until you have notified the FBI
that you have achieved a level of fitness that will allow you to obtain a passing score on
an official FBI-administered PFT. A PASSING SCORE REQUIRES A MINIMUM OF 12
TOTAL POINTS* ON THE PFT WITH AT LEAST ONE POINT IN EACH EVENT.
*The passing score for Tactical Recruitment Candidates is 20 points and includes pull-ups.
PLEASE NOTE:
All events must be conducted in the order listed in the chart below, with a break of no
more than five (5) minutes between each event.
If you FAIL an official FBI-administered PFT (after Phase II) with fewer than six points, you
must wait a minimum of one year before retesting.
st
If you FAIL your 1
PFT with a total of six or more points, you must wait a minimum of 30
nd
days and no more than 90 days to take a 2
PFT.
nd
If you FAIL your 2
PFT with a total of six or more points, then you must wait 90 days and
no more than 120 days to attempt a 3rd and final PFT.
rd
After your 3
PFT failure or failure to test within the maximum 90 day (1st retest) or 120 day
(2nd retest) guideline, your application will be terminated. (Note: If a documented medical
injury/illness precludes you from taking the PFT, you will NOT be held to the maximum
90/120 day requirement).
All applicants are required to have a passing PFT score on file within 60 days of entering the
FBI Academy for the Basic Field Training Course. Therefore, it may be necessary for you to
take and pass more than two PFTs during processing.
Please complete the chart below and input your results in the Self-PFT section of the Special
Agent Application. The scale for point allocation can be found at
fitness-test-protocol.

I have viewed the PFT protocol video at
have conducted a Self-PFT
assessment. I certify that I achieved the scores set forth above and that each event
was administered and scored in strict accordance with the FBI's testing protocols.
I understand that failure to achieve scores during an official PFT that are consistent with
the scores recorded above could be viewed as a lack of candor during my background
investigation and may be cause for my application being discontinued.
