ACFT Score Calculator

The Army Combat Fitness Test (ACFT) Score Calculator is a comprehensive free tool designed to calculate your total ACFT score based on your performance in all six events. The ACFT replaced the Army Physical Fitness Test (APFT) in 2020 and is designed to better assess combat readiness and reduce injury rates.

Our calculator uses the official ACFT scoring standards to provide accurate point calculations for each event. The test consists of six events that measure different aspects of physical fitness: strength, power, endurance, and agility. Each event is scored from 0-100 points, with a minimum of 60 points required to pass each event individually.

The Six ACFT Events Explained

1. 3-Repetition Maximum Deadlift (MDL)

The deadlift measures lower body and grip strength. Soldiers perform three repetitions at their maximum weight using a hex bar. The minimum passing weight is 140 pounds (60 points), while maximum scores typically require 340+ pounds depending on age and gender. This event simulates lifting heavy equipment or casualties.

2. Standing Power Throw (SPT)

The power throw measures explosive power and full-body coordination. Soldiers throw a 10-pound medicine ball backward over their head for maximum distance. Minimum passing distance is 4.5 meters (60 points), with maximum scores requiring 12.5+ meters. This simulates tasks like lifting equipment overhead or throwing objects.

3. Hand-Release Push-Ups (HRP)

Hand-release push-ups measure upper body endurance. Soldiers perform as many repetitions as possible in 2 minutes, releasing hands from the ground at the bottom of each rep. Minimum passing is 10 repetitions (60 points), with maximum scores requiring 60+ reps. This tests the ability to repeatedly lift oneself and equipment.

4. Sprint-Drag-Carry (SDC)

The SDC is a 250-meter course combining five different movements: sprint, sled drag, lateral shuffle, kettlebell carry, and sprint. It measures anaerobic endurance, agility, and functional strength. Minimum passing time is 3:00 (60 points), with maximum scores requiring 1:33 or faster. This simulates combat movements like evacuating casualties and moving equipment.

5. Plank (PLK)

The plank measures core strength and endurance. Soldiers hold a proper plank position for maximum time. Minimum passing is 2:00 (60 points), with maximum scores requiring 4:20+ depending on demographics. The plank replaced the leg tuck as the primary core exercise, providing a more accessible alternative while still measuring core strength.

6. Two-Mile Run (2MR)

The 2-mile run measures aerobic endurance. Minimum passing time is 21:00 (60 points), with maximum scores requiring 13:30 or faster depending on age and gender. This event tests cardiovascular fitness essential for sustained operations and movement under load.

ACFT Scoring and Standards

The ACFT uses age-normed scoring tables that adjust point values based on age brackets (17-21, 22-26, 27-31, up to 62+). This recognizes that physical performance changes with age. The total maximum score is 600 points (100 points per event). Minimum passing requires 60 points in each event, with total score requirements varying by MOS category:

• Heavy MOS: Minimum 420 total points
• Significant MOS: Minimum 390 total points
• Moderate MOS: Minimum 360 total points
• Combat Roles: Minimum 350 total points (sex-neutral standards)
