Yesterday after I took the physical the nurse was telling me that more than half the people didn't pass the physical because they couldn't complete the 20 push-ups.

I have mine next week, how long did it take you?

So sad but great.

I just got my results back, I got a 71. I have a bachelors degree and am applying for grade 5.
With a 71, do I have any shot at all? If they are still interested will I receive a a packet in the mail?

I could be wrong, but I don't think you are ranked based upon your score like ICE SAs are

Yes you have a chance. Over at the border patrol forums, several people with scores in the low to mid 70's have received TOs.

I just took my medical and physical today. Passed both with flying colors. My oral board is next week.

I have my oral on Saturday in ATL. Bought a new suit, feeling good. Still have yet to be contacted for medical/physical.

Its probably expected on the PFT1. So many people take the test. Its people failing the PFT2, after they are offered a position and been waiting for over a year. Its averaging about 1/15 by listing on Honorfirst.com if you read the posts. When they fail its usually sit-ups for males and push-ups for females. A few people fail the run too. Almost no one fails the sprint.

Quick question.

once a person gets put in TSU, what determines how quickly they get an EOD, assuming all paperwork and background checks are complete?

thats funny, I took the physical last week, im assuming that we took it at the same place being you are in orange, ca. She told me nobody has failed so far because of the pt test.

she told me most people fail due to blood pressure

Needs of the patrol, staffing, funding, holidays, etc. It's quite a complicated answer, but that's really how it goes.

[chuck9899]

Once you get to TSU, its more about you TO date then anything. Basically once you hit TSU you get in line based on your TO date. As of right now GEO preference does not matter. I applied for CA and am going to AZ.

This is the spread sheet made up of people on honorfirst.com. Contains peoples TSU dates TO dates and when they EOD.
