Читать книгу ACFT For Dummies - Angela Papple Johnston - Страница 26

Every soldier is held to the same standards on the ACFT. The grading scale doesn’t distinguish between males and females, and you don’t get a break because you’re older than your battle buddy. The days of knocking out a couple of dozen push-ups and sit-ups before shuffling around the track for 18 minutes are gone — now, it’s all about whether you can keep up with your teammates.

Every job falls into one of three physical demand categories. For example, the infantry has the highest minimum standards. Other MOSs, like Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear Specialist have the lowest minimum standards. Some jobs, like Parachute Riggers and Water Treatment Specialists, are somewhere in the middle. See Chapter 4 to find out how the test is scored, as well as what physical demand category your MOS falls into.
