Must score a minimum of 240 points on the Army Physical Fitness Test (APFT), with no less than 60 points on any event, using the standards for age group 17-21.

They have lowered the points in one event, but IIRC 240 has always been the min score.

I wouldn't look at the minimum especially if you're going thru the Guard. I know some units won't send guys to SFAS unless they're at 280-300. If you're just making the minimum, it's far more likely that you probably won't make it. No reason to waste the money on sending you.

Good luck.
Excellent... Thanks for the url... And yes, I was told by the Guard recruiter we will be evaluated at the end of the day and only candidates they feel are qualified will be transfered into the unit.
