Individual physical proficiency test information


The Individual Physical Proficiency Test (IPPT) is a standard physical fitness test used by the Singapore Armed Forces (SAF), Singapore Police Force (SPF)[1] and Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF)[2] to test the basic components of physical fitness and motor skills of their members. The IPPT is applicable to all eligible persons with National Service (NS) liability, including Full-Time National Servicemen (NSFs), Operationally-Ready National Servicemen (NSmen, or reservists), and regulars. The test presently consists of three stations: sit-up, push-up, and 2.4 km (1.5 mi) run. Based on their age, sex and vocation, persons taking the IPPT are required to meet certain standards under the IPPT Standards and Scoring System in order to pass the test.[3] As of October 2013, about 116,000 people take the IPPT every year.[4] Personnel who have a Physical Employment Standards (PES) status of B3/4, C or E are exempt from taking the IPPT.
