How do you count the grading of an APFT with alternate events for promotion reasons? https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/how-do-you-count-the-grading-of-an-apft-with-alternate-events-for-promotion-reasons <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Howdy folks, I need some guidance. I’ve looked up in AR 600-8-19, FM 7-22 and AR 350-1 about grading a PT test with those who have permenant profiles for alternate events, and I am familiar with how the average scoring works, but my question is this:<br /><br />If a soldier is on a permanent no push-up, no sit-up, 2.5 mike walk profile his/her score is 180 on paper if they receive a GO for the walk. But when it comes for promotion reasons, I was told it is counted as a 300. Can anyone help me verify this? Thank you.

I&#39;m pretty sure that we treated it as a 180 when I was still in... Frankly, if you are on a permanent profile that doesn&#39;t allow for PUs or SUs you probably shouldn&#39;t be recommended for promotion in the first place... You should probably look at getting out...

In SLC someone explained it in their NCODP they presented using themselves as an example.<br /><br />Actually that&#39;s only for promotion points when they average the score of events taken. <br />(1) Permanent profiles.<br />(a) Soldiers with permanent physical profiles for the push-up and/or sit-up events will be granted 60 points for each event waived while using the actual score for each event actually performed. These Soldiers must qualify on the 2-mile run or approved alternate aerobic event according to FM 7–22.<br />(b) Soldiers taking and passing an alternate event for the 2-mile run receive a score for that event equal to the average of the scores for the other two events.<br /><br />So for promotion points, a permanent profile could get a 300. If you take the alternate for the 2 mile run and pass the score will be the average of the scores from the other event. <br /><br />Otherwise it&#39;s go or no go for the alternate event and then points for whatever other events you take.
