FBI does not have a weight standard, they do have a PFT

### **FBI PFT Scoring Breakdown (2024 Standards)**
The test consists of **four events**, each scored on a **1–10 point scale**. To pass, candidates must:
- **Score at least 12 total points** (with no single event below **1 point**).
- **Meet the minimum thresholds** in each exercise (failing one event = automatic failure).

#### **1. Sit-Ups (1 Minute)**
- **Minimum (1 pt):** Varies by age/gender (e.g., 30–39 male: 38 sit-ups).
- **Maximum (10 pts):** Varies (e.g., 30–39 male: 58+ sit-ups).

#### **2. Push-Ups (Continuous, No Time Limit)**
- **Minimum (1 pt):** Varies (e.g., 30–39 male: 30 push-ups).
- **Maximum (10 pts):** Varies (e.g., 30–39 male: 54+ push-ups).

#### **3. 300-Meter Sprint**
- **Minimum (1 pt):** Varies (e.g., 30–39 male: ≤ 71.0 sec).
- **Maximum (10 pts):** Varies (e.g., 30–39 male: ≤ 48.0 sec).

#### **4. 1.5-Mile Run**
- **Minimum (1 pt):** Varies (e.g., 30–39 male: ≤ 15:40 min).
- **Maximum (10 pts):** Varies (e.g., 30–39 male: ≤ 9:47 min).

*(Note: Standards are **less strict for older age groups** and **different for women**—exact tables are available in FBI fitness guides.)*

### **Passing vs. Failing the FBI PFT**
#### **New Agent Trainees (at Quantico)**
- **Must pass the PFT to graduate.**
- **Three attempts allowed** during training.
- **Failure = Dismissal from the Academy.**

#### **Current Agents (Annual Test)**
- **First failure:** Given a **remedial fitness program** and retested.
- **Repeated failures:** Can lead to:
  - **Reassignment** (to a non-operational role).
  - **Termination** (if unable to meet standards after multiple attempts).

### **Disqualification Risks Beyond the PFT**
While the FBI has no strict **weight limit**, other physical factors can disqualify candidates or lead to termination:
1. **Body Fat Percentage**
   - If an agent’s fitness is borderline, the FBI may measure body fat.
   - **Men >22% or Women >32%** (varies by age) may face remedial action.
2. **Medical Conditions**
   - Uncontrolled diabetes, severe heart disease, or mobility-limiting injuries can disqualify.
3. **Injury/Recovery Status**
   - Long-term injuries preventing PFT completion may lead to medical retirement.

### **Final Notes**
- **Elite squads (HRT, SWAT, etc.) have higher fitness demands.**
- **Non-agent roles (analysts, cyber) may have relaxed or no PFT requirements.**
