The beep test is used by a wide variety of different organisations with a similarly wide variety of pass marks required to pass the entry standard.

The list below shows some of the organisations that use the test but doesn’t include the hundreds of schools and sports teams that use the beep test as a factor in selection for representative teams and ongoing fitness assessment.

Note that any numbers here are the MINIMUM level required to gain entry to a certain job.  Often selection for these jobs is competitive and the better your score on the beep test the more likely you are to get the job and survive basic training!
