A few will pass, 100% guaranteed. They will fail out a few, “proving” that the program is valid, then the others will graduate.
But there is zero chance that the current army brass will allow all of them to wash out.

Would like some corroboration here: in the early 1990’s I read that there was a physical abilities study of Army trainees, male & female.

The sample was large enough for the study to conclude that given 100 males and 100 females, that the ten strongest females were only as strong as the ten weakest males.

Anyone know more about this? Real question.
