Do you have to take the physical fitness test before or during the Philadelphia police academy?

I took the philadelphia police test, and wanted to know do you take the physical fitness test before the academy or during the philadelphia police academy? Also what would they do if you are underweight?|||Major departments all require some type of fitness test before they make a hiring decision. Then during the academy they continue the PT.





Underweight shouldn't matter so long as you meet the minimum fitness standards.|||You take the test before you enter the academy you need to pass it in order to be eligble for the academy then at the end of the academyyou will be required to take another physical test its harder then the first.
