USAF PT Exemption Score Calculator & Math Lookup

For a complete explanation of how medical profiles, AF Form 469, pregnancy deferments, and deployment exemptions work under DAFMAN 36-2905, read the Air Force PT exemptions and profiles guide.

USAF PT Exemption Scoring Calculator

This tool helps you estimate your score when one or more PFRA components are exempted through a medical profile. Enter your scores for the components you are testing on, toggle exemptions, and the calculator shows your adjusted composite, passing threshold, and component floor status.

Formula Rule (DAFMAN 36-2905): Adjusted Composite Score = (Points Earned on Tested Components / Possible Points of Tested Components) × 100. Additionally, you must score ≥60% of the maximum point value for each tested component.

For non-exempt scoring, use the main USAF PT Calculator 2026.

Exemption Scoring Math Explained

Unlike standard assessments, a profile-based score works on a reduced denominator. If a medical provider issues a profile that prevents you from testing on a component, those points are not included in your total. Here is the math for each exemption combination:

Exempted Components	Remaining Max	Min Passing Points (75%)	Required Component Floors
None (Full Test)	100 pts	75.0 pts	Cardio: 30, Body: 12, Strength: 9, Core: 9
Strength (Push-ups) only	85 pts	63.8 pts	Cardio: 30, Body: 12, Core: 9
Core (Plank/Sit-ups) only	85 pts	63.8 pts	Cardio: 30, Body: 12, Strength: 9
Body Composition only	80 pts	60.0 pts	Cardio: 30, Strength: 9, Core: 9
Cardiorespiratory (Run) only	50 pts	37.5 pts	Body: 12, Strength: 9, Core: 9
Cardio & Strength	35 pts	26.3 pts	Body: 12, Core: 9
Cardio & Core	35 pts	26.3 pts	Body: 12, Strength: 9

Frequently Asked Math Questions

Can I pass if I score 100% on two components but fail the third's minimum floor?+

No. DAFMAN 36-2905 mandates that you must pass the individual minimum floor (60% of the component max) for every component tested. For example, if testing cardio (50 pts), body composition (20 pts), and strength (15 pts) with core exempt, even if you earn a perfect 50 on cardio and 20 on body composition (70 total points, exceeding the 63.75 threshold), you will still fail the test if your push-ups are under the 9-point minimum floor.

How does the calculator calculate fractional points?+

Fitness component points are usually integer values based on your performance charts. However, pro-rated math results in decimals (e.g. 63.75). The final overall Air Force PT score is rounded to the nearest tenth.

What if I can perform some push-up options but not others?+

Under the PFRA, you test on whichever component option you select (e.g. standard push-ups or hand-release push-ups). If your medical profile prevents you from doing all approved options in a category, that category is marked as exempt. You cannot be partially exempt within a category's sub-options.
