1. What is the Marine PFT Calculator?

Definition: This calculator computes the total Physical Fitness Test (PFT) score for U.S. Marines in 2023 based on three components: pullups, plank, and run.

Purpose: It helps Marines and candidates calculate their overall PFT score to assess fitness levels and meet Marine Corps standards.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the formula:

Where:

• Pullup Score — Points from pullup performance (0-100)
• Plank Score — Points from plank hold time (0-100)
• Run Score — Points from 3-mile run time (0-100)

Explanation: Each event is scored separately based on performance standards, then summed for the total PFT score (max 300 points).

3. Importance of PFT Scoring

Details: The PFT is a key component of Marine Corps fitness standards. Minimum scores vary by age and gender, with 150+ points generally required to pass.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter your points for each event (0-100). If you don't know your point values, use the official Marine Corps PFT scoring tables first.
