<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>As an Infantryman you never worried about what you had to make to skate by, you always gave 100% everytime to do your best. If at the end of the day if you did everything to achieve your optimal goal then that's all you need to worry about. When I went through Infantry Basic/IAT the MOTO was "Lead or Get the Hell Out of the Way"MSG Bennie DavisSat, 24 Aug 2019 19:49:42 -04002019-08-24T19:49:42-04:00Response by SGT Michael Jackson made Aug 24 at 2019 8:44 PM

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>The standard is 60 in each event, for a total of 180. No MOS can change that standard to gatekeep. That being said, My entire career in the Infantry, the goal was 270 or above or you would do remedial physical training in the afternoon to "assist" you in achieving that goal. Honest advice, you want to be in the 280-300 range to set yourself above your peers. 3 things you should focus on 1: be proficient in your skill level tasks and skill level 2 tasks. 2: expert marksmanship. 3: 280 or above PT score if you want to fast track in the Infantry.SSG Robert PerrottoSun, 25 Aug 2019 11:02:23 -04002019-08-25T11:02:23-04:00Response by SGT John Price made Aug 25 at 2019 12:03 PM

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Depends on the unit. In 10th Mountain if you had less than 90 in pushups and sit-ups you were worthless and if you weren’t extended scale on the run you were not fit to wear a rank and US flag regardless of of how well you did anything else. In Germany, a 181 was acceptable provided you shot 10 Ts on table 6.SSG George HoltjeWed, 28 Aug 2019 22:15:56 -04002019-08-28T22:15:56-04:00Response by SFC(P) Private RallyPoint Member made Sep 19 at 2019 8:59 PM

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>There are inflated standards. 180 is it to pass, by regulation. Higher is desired. Technically a unit cannot treat you differently if you pass all three events, but it happens. <br />SOF standard is 240 min, but if you're below 270 you have no chance of being promoted. <br />As for a 280 being the minimum for 11B, you are quite mistaken, that may have been what your unit SAID in an effort to get more effort and a better unit average, but theres nothing they could do to you if you had a 180, 60 in each event.CW2 Private RallyPoint MemberFri, 25 Oct 2019 11:12:11 -04002019-10-25T11:12:11-04:00Response by SGT Private RallyPoint Member made Oct 26 at 2019 2:57 PM
