Mos specific, age and gender neutral, unit standards?..... Ok correct me if I’m wrong please, because I have been out for 5 years. A Combat mos has to score 70% and a non combat mos has to score 65%, but the Army minimum is 60%? So if in my Combat MOS I score my 70% to go to let’s say Jump school, and a Female Non Combat MOS has to score 65% to go what standard do they use at the school house?

If that be the case, I would be shitty... We watched all these deployment dodgers get the NCOES schools while we were out being real men. We came home with all the experience, but they had all the rank. This sounds rather the same. Infantry guys meeting Army standards can’t go to Air Assault School, Air Borne because they fail to meet 70%. While other POGs on base walk around with their AA wings and AB wings.

As it was stated before, no score system in place yet. It is on testing face at specific locations and units across the Army. It will go into effect on or after 1 October 2020. There is no reason to panic. I have heard from a few Soldiers who have taken it, as practice test and they said they did it with no much difficulty. Again, it will not be around for a while.

They don't have any score yet. They're going to iron it out, and it will be non gender based.
Not sure where you got those percentages, but based off the max speed for the run and weight for the deadlifts, I don't think a lot of people will be scoring that high.

Nice. I hadn't seen that yet. I do know they're only gathering scores right now to determine what the requirements are for passing in the future.

As of right now they are just announcing they will start taking this new test. They are gathering data to see what an acceptable range will be. At the moment, the only hard facts are the exercises and and the scores. Everything else is up in the air. They're proposing that it will be gender and age neutral, and that they may impose certain score requirements for certain MOS's. But even that is still just a pending suggestion.

SPC Kendall Metcalf - Again proposed. Those are just proposed. I'm pretty sure that was not supposed to get out when it did.
They start testing Oct 2018 - Oct 2019. They said they may remove events. They may change some things around. No one knows until it's been tested.
