Depends on where within the field you fall. As this chart shows,

https://www.navycs.com/navy-fitness-assessment.html (I only just realized it, but this is the link I meant to put in my first post! Fixing that now)

the minimum for each category is shown next to its point value. So if you did 102 curl-ups and 86 push-ups, but barely made 11:00 on your run, your point average would be (90+90+60)/3 = 80, which is a low Excellent. If you got 108/91/9:46, which are the top ends of the same categories, you'd probably scrape Outstanding overall.

Regardless, let me repeat that your average doesn't mean ANYTHING if one of the three is a fail. You will fail overall in that case, every time.

Yea I figured if you failed a specific part, you were done for. Just didn't know if they averaged it all out or gave you the lowest score you earned from one of the three categories if you hadn't failed.

Is it right that you have to score "good" in recruit training to pass but after that you can score "satisfactory" and pass?

According to this sight that is the case...

If it is true, I'm a little annoyed by the Navy's grasp of the English language. But if you can pass with a "Good" in boot camp, there's no reason why you should ever slip below that in the fleet.
