I just like the fact that for a change someone is asking what the max is! To many people focus on the minimum standards. Keep that drive and you'll do great! Good luck!

^^What he said!^^
Never got close enough to hit the extended scores, but would occasionally max sit-ups (getting pneumonia at OSUT and coughing for 2 straight months will help...but I don't recommend it!), and if I was feeling it, the push ups. Definitely never touched the max 2 mile, LOL, but hey 2 outa 3 aint bad!

In order to max the 17-21 age group it is 71 CORRECT pushups, 78 situps, and 13:00 2 mile run.
You will also take the ACFT that will replace the APFT. It has leg tucks, dead lifts, pushups, MB throw, run, and a sprint - drag - carry. You can't max it, but you should definitely train for that in the future.

50 point per event to pass the basic portion of infantry OSUT, and 60 points per event to pass the AIT portion of OSUT. Infantry goes through One Unit Station Training (OSUT) but it has the same phases as non-OSUT, Basic is Red, white, and blue phases, and AIT are Black and Gold. I was a Drill Sergeant. That’s my creditials and expertise in the matter. But it will change soon with the introduction of the new ACFT which will take effect place in IET environment.

Thank you, I've been running two miles every other day and doing pushups every day to prepare for osut

One thing I'd add to this: There's passing, per the standards given by SSG Cortes above, and then there's what your unit will accept. You won't be penalized for passing, but you definitely want to strive for at least an overall APFT score of 270. If you have an event that you're struggling to hit a 90 on, work on hitting a 95 or 100 on your stronger events.

Here's a set of charts for you. It actually looks a little different than I remember it, but times do change.

If you get a 22/23 week cycle they are all doing the ACFT. It’s easy to pass & hard to max. Go strive for perfect on that.
I got back from Benning a month ago and had a 14 week cycle. Your scores will go down. They are extremely strict on form.
For 100% it’s 70push ups. 78 sit ups and 13:00 2mi.

You don't need to worry about that right now to be honest all you need to do is go out there and give it everythi g you have and when you think you are done that when you dig down deep and pull put some more. Right now your thinking about standards that you can max while you're well rested that will not be the case when you test so attempting to put that kind of absolute value on it is useless. Just Don't Quit Ever and you WILL be fine

150 for BCT so 50 in each event and OSUT is 180 so 60 in each event, that's the bare minimum to pass.......

60,60,60. It doesn't matter about is It because that is the army's current standard. 42 pushup minimum, 52 sit up minimum, and 15:54 run maximum. Good luck in basic. I was B 2-47.
