Come prepared to pass. Please review the testing process (PFPO Link) and practice to understand your limits.
Please:
Do not use any energy drinks / ephedrine / caffeine etc prior to the testing. Far too often candidates are excluded from the testing due to having not passed the prescreening.
Pre-screening limits are as follows:
HR max is 99 BPM
BP max is 160/90
Such substances combined with the normal day stress can easily cause one’s levels to soar. One cannot complete the test if prescreen limits exceed the limit.
Shuttle Run/"Beep Test" - For a candidate to pass the PPS fitness screening an applicant in the recruiting process must reach level 7.
PREP Test - Success is completing all course elements in a time of 02:37 or less.
