Army Fitness Test (AFT) Calculator: Score Your AFT Instantly

This army fitness test calculator scores all five Army Fitness Test (AFT) events against the Army's current scoring scales, so you know your total and whether you pass before you step on the lane. If a weak event keeps capping your score, our military fitness programs build the fix into a structured plan.

The calculator runs on the official tables that took effect June 1, 2025, including the 350-point combat MOS standard. Enter your age, sex, standard, and five raw results. You get points per event, a GO or NO GO on each, and your total out of 500.

Army Fitness Test Calculator

The AFT calculator above works like a grader's scorecard. It looks up your raw result in the column for your age group and sex, then awards the highest point value you met. A result between two table values earns the lower one, the same way the published scales read.

How to use the calculator:

1. Pick your standard: general (300 to pass) or combat MOS (350 to pass).

2. Select your sex and enter your age on test day.

3. Enter your deadlift in pounds and your hand-release push-up reps.

4. Enter your sprint-drag-carry, plank, and two-mile run times as minutes and seconds.

5. Hit Calculate to see event points, GO or NO GO, and your total.

If you searched for an army physical fitness test calculator, an army physical fitness test score calculator, or a US Army fitness test calculator, this is the current version of that tool. It scores the AFT, the test of record since June 2025.

How Is the AFT Scored?

The AFT is scored out of 500 points: five events, each worth 0 to 100 points. Every soldier needs at least 60 points in each event. The general standard requires a 300 total, and the combat standard requires 350, per the Army's June 2025 AFT announcement.

The five AFT events

Figure 1.1 - The five events of the Army Fitness Test, the Army's test of record since 1 June 2025, with each event's movement standard and the published pass and maximum scores for ages 17 to 21. Sixty points must be cleared on every event independently; 300 points passes for most soldiers and 350 for the 21 designated combat specialties. The window between passing and maxing varies enormously, the hand-release push-up runs 10 reps to 57, a 5.7-fold spread, while the deadlift runs 140 lb to 340 lb for men and only 120 lb to 210 lb for women, and the plank is the single event whose standards do not split by sex. Since April 2026 soldiers in combat specialties also take a seven-event Combat Field Test, graded pass or fail on cumulative time. Sources: army.mil/aft; goarmy.com per-event standards; Army Directive 2026-07.

The general standard is age- and sex-normed, so a 24-year-old female and a 24-year-old male read different columns. The combat standard is sex-neutral and age-normed. Every soldier in a combat MOS is scored on the same column for their age group, which matches the male column. That is why a combat-MOS female who pulls 120 pounds on the deadlift earns 40 points, not 60.

The deadlift checks the strength to lift a casualty or a load off the ground. The sprint-drag-carry checks repeat anaerobic power, and the run checks aerobic capacity. On the hand-release push-up, your chest reaches the ground and your hands leave it every rep, which removes half reps.

This page is the tool. For the full event-by-event tables and scoring rules, read our breakdown of the AFT scoring standards. Use the two together: this army fitness test scoring calculator gives you the number, and the standards post explains where it comes from.

AFT vs ACFT vs APFT: Why Did the Army Change the Test?

The AFT replaced the Army Combat Fitness Test (ACFT) on June 1, 2025. The Army dropped the standing power throw, cut the test to five events, and moved the maximum from 600 to 500 points. The ACFT itself replaced the three-event APFT and became the test of record in October 2022.

APFT vs ACFT vs AFT

Figure 1.2 - The three Army fitness tests of record since 1980, with their events, tenure and maximum scores. The APFT held the record for forty-two years without changing its events once; the ACFT held it for two years and eight months, having spent longer being introduced than it spent counting, announced in 2018, authorized Army-wide in October 2020 with scores collected but not counted, revised in April 2022, and scoring for record only from October 2022. Every event in all three tests has been worth 100 points and the pass mark has always been 60 points on each event independently, so the maximum moves only with the number of events: 300, then 600, then 500. Of the APFT's three events only the two-mile run survives, sit-ups were abolished with nothing replacing them, and the push-up returned as the hand-release push-up, a different movement in which standard push-up performance explains only 39% of the variance. The leg tuck, the event most associated with the ACFT, was dropped six months before the test ever counted.

So if you are looking for an army combat fitness test calculator or an APFT calculator, the scores those tools produce no longer count for record. A current army fitness test calculator for 2025 and beyond has to use the AFT scales, with the 60-point floor in every event and the combat standard layered on top.

The combat standard took effect January 1, 2026, for the active component and June 1, 2026, for the Reserve and National Guard. Cadets and future officers face the same shift, and our guide to ROTC fitness test standards covers how scoring fits that pathway.

What Is a Passing AFT Score?

A passing AFT score is 300 points for the general standard and 350 for combat MOSs, with at least 60 points in every event. The maximum is 500. A soldier who scores 340 but earns 58 on the sprint-drag-carry still fails, because the event floor applies before the total counts.

AFT passing benchmarks

Figure 1.3 - The Army Fitness Test's passing benchmarks, general standard against combat MOS standard. Both require 60 points on each of the five events independently and both top out at 500, but the totals are different kinds of requirement: 300 is exactly what five 60-point floors already add to, so it binds on nobody, while 350 demands fifty points of surplus above those floors, an average of 70 per event, and leaves a combat-specialty soldier 150 points of headroom against the general standard's 200. The scoring tables approved 1 May 2025 carry two columns for each of ten age groups, headed M | C and F, so "sex-neutral" means combat soldiers of either sex are scored in the same column male soldiers use: at ages 17 to 21 that is 15 hand-release push-ups and a 19:57 two-mile run to reach 60 points, against 11 and 22:55 in the female column. Sources: HQDA EXORD 218-25 Annex B scoring tables; army.mil/aft; Army Directives 2025-06 and 2026-07.

A 350 on the combat standard means averaging 70 points per event. That leaves little room for a weak event, which is why we program around the lowest score first.

The run is where most scores are made or lost. At 60 points, a 17 to 21 year old in the combat column needs 19:57 on the two-mile run, per the Army scales. See the Army two-mile run standard for pacing and training detail.

A good AFT score is one with margin. We coach soldiers to target 70 or more in every event, because poor sleep, heat, or a cold morning can cost you points on test day. If the calculator shows a NO GO, start with Army PT workouts for beginners and rebuild the base before you chase max points.

If you are deciding between self-coaching and a structured plan, our guide to choosing a military fitness program lays out what to look for.

AFT Extended Scale, Body Fat Calculator, and Excel Tools

The Army's published AFT scales stop at 100 points per event, so there is no official extended scale for the AFT. Any extended scale calculator is an unofficial estimate.

Body fat rules changed twice in two years. Army Directive 2025-17 exempted soldiers who scored 465 or more on the AFT, with 80 or more in each event, from body fat assessment. Army Directive 2026-13 rescinded that exemption in July 2026 and made a waist-to-height ratio under 0.55 the standard for every soldier. Your AFT score no longer exempts you from body composition, so check the current Army height and weight standards before your next screening.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this the AFT or the old ACFT calculator?

This is an AFT calculator. It scores the Army Fitness Test, which replaced the ACFT as the test of record on June 1, 2025. The standing power throw is gone, the test has five events, and the maximum is 500 points. ACFT scores from a six-event calculator will not match your AFT result.

How many events are on the AFT, and how is it scored?

The AFT has five events: the 3-repetition maximum deadlift, hand-release push-up, sprint-drag-carry, plank, and two-mile run. Each event is worth 0 to 100 points, for a maximum of 500. You need 60 points in every event, plus a 300 total for the general standard or 350 for combat MOSs.

What is a passing AFT score?

A passing AFT score is 300 total points with at least 60 in each event for the general standard. Soldiers in the 21 combat MOSs need 350 total, still with 60 in each event. Missing 60 in any single event is a fail, regardless of the total.

Does the calculator use the current age and sex tables?

Yes. The calculator uses the Army's AFT scoring scales effective June 1, 2025, across all ten age groups from 17 to 21 through 62 and older. The general standard reads the column for your age and sex. The combat standard reads the sex-neutral column for your age group.

Where do the official AFT standards come from?

The official AFT standards come from the U.S. Army. The scoring scales are published on the Army's AFT page at army.mil, and the testing procedures sit in ATP 7-22.01, H2F Testing. Your unit's recorded score is the official one, so use this calculator to plan and track training.

An army fitness test calculator tells you where you stand, and the next step is closing the gap. Run the numbers after every practice test, find the event with the lowest points, and train that event first. Book your next diagnostic AFT four to six weeks out, and put the gap on the calendar.
