The MCOLES physical fitness test consists of four separate events: vertical jump, sit-ups, push-ups, and a 1/2 mile shuttle run. Candidates are required to pass all four events of the test. The official results notification may be presented to employing agencies or to recruit academies.
The minimum performance standards for the MCOLES physical fitness test are displayed below. The numbers in the tables represent the "cut score", or pass/fail point for each event. In order to pass the test, candidates must score at least the minimums listed in the tables on each of the four events.
Note how the tables are divided according to age and sex. When looking at the tables, be careful to select your individual performance category.
