I went through it back in 2010, my suggestion crossfit style program, and run a lot on top of it. I did really well and i averaged 10-15 miles BEFORE getting to the academy. I reallllllly hope they kept the pt challenging because it really translated to the field....I went to Rio Grande City Texas....and I didnt know what exhausted was until i had to track groups of 15 plus for 2 miles just to get into a a sprinted foot pursuit over and over at the end of that with some resistance. Think about things like that when you are training...your life depends on it.

Everyone who's watching this and thinking about becoming an agent needs to stop right now and drop the idea from their head consider literally any other form of employment do not pursue this I am telling you the truth because I wasted so much time energy effort and money trying to become a border patrol agent. Still, many other people for which the polygraph is meant to filter out those that don't have the moral character become an agent.... but the truth (and this is the TRUTH) - is it's just used as a tool to keep these polygraph examiners employed - it doesn't matter who you are what background you come from how Christian of a life you've led up to this point. You're more likely to fail just because of some bureaucrat who needs a job I've wasted so much time and effort into this clown show. The audacity of the polygraph examiners is that they will ask someone to come back a second time for a 2nd polygraph - with zero intention to pass them the second time they will fail before walking in the door the 2nd time, no different than the 1st. Why? Because they get a whopping huge percentage of the $2200 it takes for the U.S. government to pay for the test itself. YES! It is that fucked up. BTW, the process to even get as far as the polygraph is.... immense. So you will be in a position where you have spent countless hours at doctors, structured interviews, filling out probably 200 forms, tests, exams, more doctors appointments, pre-security interview, background check (federal, it is like 50 pages long and extremely detailed with 32 different sections, enjoy), AND MORE. Then finally, at the very end is the polygraph. Confident? You shouldn't be. Brilliant men and women go in there with an impeccable record. And fail. Twice. It does not matter. The polygraph examiners are doing this for the $$$$ and for job security. There is no other federal agency who fails at even half the rate as the border patrol. DEA fail rate is 36%, CIA is 35%, FBI 30%.... Border Patrol is 75%. There are polygraph examiners with 100% fail rate (Del Rio Texas, Tampa Florida, and more). Let that sink in for a moment. And these people are have been doing this for years. There is no accountability and they are making bank. Just don't do it. Read up on the bullshit. Save yourself time & money. Just don't do it, I'm telling you. Fuck border patrol
