The Cherry Hill Police Department contracts a private company for the administration of the nationally validated exam. The exam is actually produced and scored by the private vendor. The exam has proven to be a very competitive and challenging hurdle for police candidates.

The Cherry Hill Police Department utilizes the following New Jersey Police Training Commission (PTC) physical agility standards to assess candidates:

Required Exercises

    • 300 Meter Run in 70.1 seconds or less;
    • 24 Push-ups in 1 minute or less;
    • Vertical Jump of 15 inches or more;
    • 28 Sit-ups in 1 minute or less; and
    • 1.5 Mile Run in 15 minutes and 55 seconds or less.

Since the above minimum standards are required for participation in a New Jersey basic police academy, most police departments have implemented this testing as part of their selection process.

The most common deficiencies identified during the physical testing tend to be in the area of sit-ups and push-ups (in that order). Not because the standards are too high, but actually due to candidates who are otherwise in good shape not realizing the challenge of the perfect form required in a one-time attempt under strict time limitations. In a hiring process, there are no do-overs. When time is called, if the candidate doesn’t have 28 strict form sit-ups and/or 24 strict form push-ups completed, he or she “fails” the physical. No candidate should go into the this physical test without specifically training to complete these particular exercises well beyond the standards listed.

Only those candidates who score high enough on the written exam will be invited to physical assessment.

The following video is openly available online as produced by the Police Academy Directors Association to assist candidates in preparing for the pre-academy physical agility test. It is highly recommended that candidates review this video to focus on proper form to train/practice in advance of the Cherry Hill PD physical assessment.

It is highly recommended that candidates focus on these specific exercises as part of a well structured physical training routine. DO NOT assume that because you weight lift that you are prepared for the push ups or because you ride a bicycle regularly that you are prepared for the run. As a serious law enforcement candidate, you should maintain top physical shape and conditioning to ensure that you can excel on any physical assessment during the hiring process.
