Key takeaways
What events are included in the Marine CFT?
The CFT combines a timed movement, an ammunition-can lift and a timed Maneuver Under Fire course. 1, chapter 3
Scroll sideways inside this table if needed. The page itself does not scroll sideways.
| Event | What to record | What not to substitute |
|---|---|---|
| Movement to Contact (MTC) | Official event time | An ordinary workout run or PFT run time. |
| Ammunition Lift (AL) | Valid repetitions in the prescribed test | Gym press repetitions with different equipment. |
| Maneuver Under Fire (MANUF) | Official scored course time | A practice sprint that omits required tasks or penalties. |
Use the correct age/sex table and the order’s altitude provisions where applicable. The course and valid-repetition rules are part of the test, not optional details. The usual CFT testing period is July 1 through December 31 under MCO 6100.13A. 1
How is the Marine CFT total classified?
Add the three official event point values and then apply the class boundaries only if every required event minimum is met. 12
Scroll sideways inside this table if needed. The page itself does not scroll sideways.
| CFT total | Classification when all events qualify |
|---|---|
| 150–199 | Third class |
| 200–234 | Second class |
| 235–300 | First class |
| Below 150 | Below the full-test passing total |
A result should identify any failed event before displaying a class. It must not award a first-class label to an invalid test simply because the remaining events were strong. 1
What does a CFT point-gap example look like?
A valid 234-point full CFT is second class and is one point short of the 235-point first-class boundary. 2
This is a classification example, not a fabricated performance-to-points conversion. To plan the additional point, consult the exact event row for the Marine’s age, applicable category and altitude. Do not assume one more lift always adds one point or that a second removed from a time has the same value in every band. 1
Does the 2026 combat-arms PFT requirement change this CFT result?
The cited 2026 combat-arms message establishes a PFT requirement; it does not establish a new 210-point CFT passing rule. 3
Use the Marine PFT guide for male age-normed combat-arms PFT scoring. Do not transfer that rule, or the Army CFT’s single continuous pass/fail time, to this Marine CFT calculator.
What happens if an event is medically excused?
Your health-care provider and command determine whether a partial CFT or another authorized status applies. 1, chapter 1
A partial CFT is not calculated as a full test with missing events set to zero, and this guide does not decide eligibility for an exemption. Ask the FFI or CPTR to confirm the permitted events, scoring treatment and official reporting.
