What is the Marine Corps Combat Fitness Test?
The USMC CFT includes movement to contact, ammunition-can lifts and maneuver under fire. The calculator combines three published event scores. The Army Fitness Test Calculator uses a separate U.S. Army scoring system.

How CFT points and classes are calculated
Each event is worth up to 100 points. A passing full test requires at least 40 in every event and 150 total. Passing totals of 150–199 are third class, 200–234 are second class and 235–300 are first class.
For an optional practice or checking aid, browse training journals (paid link). Keep raw practice times and final adjusted times separate.
How to read the CFT score chart
The three columns use the same 0–100 scale. The dashed line marks the minimum event score of 40. The total and class above the chart also account for the 150-point overall requirement.

Example of the event minimum rule
Event scores of 70, 80 and 85 add to 235 and meet the first-class threshold. Event scores of 100, 100 and 0 add to 200 but fall below the full-test passing thresholds because one event missed its minimum.
