Any Beta units out there that have tried the ACFT yet?

Just wanted to see if there have been anyone who’s tried out the ACFT yet and to get your thoughts on it? My center had to do a trial run last week (certain recruiting BN’s have been identified as testing BN’s). We through it from start to finish. For 7 of us and reading all of the rules for it, it took about 2 hours. Just want to compare experiences.

My unit ran a mock ACFT a few months ago. From start to finish, to complete our entire battalion, took three days at around 2 hours each morning. Setup to tear down put cadre and administering NCOs approximately 3 hours. However, some of the key takeaways from the testing was Soldiers and leaders needing to pay close attention to the standards needed to pass the test.

SSG Private RallyPoint Member if I'm reading your question right, you had 7 people testing? If so, that they should have used 2 lanes and taken about 70 minutes. I have seen 64 Soldiers test in under 70 minutes, 200 Soldiers in under 2 hours.
