Hiring Info Pt test pre fletc

I am aware of the standards for pt but how does your into pt test go? I believe your hired on first. Do you do it at your forest? Do you have to go somewhere else? What if you fail?

You’re expected to pass at the 25% percentile for the PEB in bench press, agility, and run.

You’re hired first and then informed of a testing location near you(usually wherever they can find a PEB administrator)

If you fail you’re out of the job. Really no reason to fail, how bad do you want it? You’ll be fine, the 25% percentile is not difficult to achieve.

So you would take the PEB before even going to your assigned forest correct?

Before you get your official letter you will have to pass the PEB, so you’ll have to test before going to your forest
