Our Physical Readiness Test (PRT) is required for OFFICER CANDIDATES ONLY who have an active application in process with TCSO Human Resources.
The PRT requires a candidate to complete a timed 500 meter row at 50% or above according to their gender. A medical waiver will be required prior to taking this test. The minimum time is 2:08 for a male and 2:27 for a female. You can find training tips at www.concept2.com/indoor-rowers/training/technique-videos.
Candidates will be allowed three attempts to pass the PRT before being disqualified for one year from the officer hiring process.
If you’re interested in practicing on the row machine, please contact a TCSO Recruiter to schedule a trial test.
