Official scoring matrices under Marine Corps Order 6100.13A (MCO 6100.13A) with 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Class ratings.
Altitude adjustment is an approximation: the MCO altitude tables were not extracted for this build, so a 60-second credit is applied to the run. Sea-level scoring is exact.
From 1 January 2026, combat-arms Marines of either sex are scored on the male age-normed PFT tables with a minimum total of 210. Below 210 means remedial PT.
Pull-ups offer up to 100 points (23 reps max male). Push-ups are capped at 70 to 80 points.
Plank max standard: 3:45 (100 points). Minimum passing: 1:10 (40 points).
18:00 or faster maxes the run (100 pts) for males; 21:00 for females. Cutoff is 28:00 / 31:00.
The Marine Corps Physical Fitness Test evaluates Marines across a 300-point composite scale. Achieving 1st Class requires 235 or more points, 2nd Class requires 200 to 234 points, and 3rd Class requires 150 to 199 points. Failing any individual event constitutes an overall PFT failure regardless of total points. From 1 January 2026 (MARADMIN 613/25), combat-arms Marines of either sex are scored on the male tables with a 210-point floor.

During the second half of the annual training cycle, Marines complete the Combat Fitness Test in combat utility uniform. The CFT evaluates functional anaerobic battlefield capacity through three discrete events: the 880-yard Movement to Contact (MTC), the 2-minute 30-pound Ammo Can Lift (ACL), and the 300-yard Maneuver Under Fire (MANUF) obstacle shuttle course.
