Back in my day; Your last APFT should be honored up until your new units next scheduled APFT or your next required one, which ever comes 1st. School requirements are / we’re excep. That said, how hard is a APFT?
I was at BNCOC and just got back from doing PT, 3 mile run and an entire regiment of calisthenics. An E7 walks up and says PT Test in 5 minutes. I did the PT test.

For everyone who has looked and not replied. Here is the answer.
Pulled straight from FM 7-22
NEW SOLDIERS ENTERING UNITS
4-27. The new Soldier’s threshold level of physical performance may fall below the minimum for his gaining unit. He may be considered a borderline APFT performer or be borderline overweight. He may be fresh out of BCT, AIT, or OSUT, or may have just completed a permanent change of station move or returned from an extended deployment. These Soldiers are facing new conditions relating to physical performance (acclimatization to altitude, temperature, and humidity), which may take them up to four weeks to adapt. Although Soldiers leave IMT prepared to transition to the sustaining phase, they may de-train due to leave, transit, and in-processing at their new duty assignments just like Soldiers in operational units.
New Soldiers need to train in the unit for 90 days before PRT leaders or AIs assess the Soldiers' fitness levels. This timeframe allows them to acclimatize, assimilate into a unit PRT program, and adapt physiologically and psychologically.

FM 7-22 , ctrl-F and enter 90 days. I'm pretty sure that's the correct answer.
