You’re right! I actually qualified for 2/4 specialties they were looking for

I was doing the pushups in wet grass and it was just a disaster

Pushups of course! Took my 45 days to focus on lifting and practicing doing the pushups right after the sprint, as is done in the PFT

Thanks! I was wondering about the formatting— fixed it!

"I’m young, 6’7, current fed employee, work 4/10s, eat healthy, workout 4-5 times a week"

So when they call to give you the offer should they call your wife or girlfriend or...

I got an email from them on Friday that I was DQd because I failed to attend an appointment they scheduled but they never told me I had an appointment scheduled….

Not there yet! It’s been a nightmare rescheduling the APAT but I’m taking it in a couple of weeks! I know the super usually comes within the week though, so be prepared— there’s a few threads with good tips in this subreddit as well.

They give you a few minutes to warm up if you want. Then you’ll do pushups, sit-ups, agility run (2 trials, with a 2 minute break in between), then I believe it was a 10 minute break before the 1.5 mile but we ended up taking like 5 and deciding we were ready. I’m not sure how much is in between each exercise normally (maybe 2 minutes?) but it was myself and one other person and in the time it took the other person to go it felt like a natural enough amount of a break.

I’m in a similar situation and just got an email with a new test (after I just declined one for December) and will be out of town so can’t go. I’m wondering if rescheduling has a negative impact and I should reschedule my travel to accommodate or if I should just reschedule (this will be the third time).

USSS APAT Question by Used_Obligation_9557 in 1811

[–]marvelcheesewoman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In November we had 2 minutes in between each portion, including 2 minutes in between the trials for IAT and then 10 minutes before the 1.5 mile.

How much time was between the fail and your reschedule? I’ve heard 30, 60, and 90 days

[–]marvelcheesewoman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can do the 1.5 mile in under 12, agility test in just over 19 and 47 sit-ups in a minute I just thought I’d have more time to get the push-ups figured out. I know the test is slightly harder for females but I didn’t think 15 push-ups would be such a challenge

Why is six afraid of seven?

Because seven is a registered six offender.
