The U.S. Army is currently reviewing the accuracy of the infamous ‘tape test’ on the behest of Sgt. Major Daniel Dailey. While there is no official plan to remove or revise the test, this review might push the Army reassess its fitness standards.

Every active-duty soldier has their weight and body fat percentage evaluated on a six-month basis. Basically, each soldier must fall within a certain set of parameters based on their height, age and gender, or else their career could be at risk. Those parameters are determined by the tape test, or the measurement of the neck and waist.

But the assessment isn’t as black and white as it sounds. Many within the military have criticized the test for being an inaccurate way to judge a soldier.

From the Military Times:

In 2013, Military Times put the tape test to the test by taping 10 active-duty troops stationed in the Pacific Northwest and then putting them in a hydrostatic ‘dunk tank’, considered among the gold standards for determining actual body fat composition. The results showed not once did the taping match the dunk test results. The tape test was wrong every time, and in nine out of 10 cases, the tape method measured troops’ body fat percentages higher — the worst was a 66 percent difference between the scores. The closest was nearly 12 percent off.

Dailey initiated a review of the policy after soldiers expressed similar concerns to him. However, he is reserving judgement until after the review is finished.

“I don’t know if it is fair or not, so we’re going to ask TRADOC to take a look at it,” Dailey said to the Army Times. “Generally, it seems like it’s a very good tool, but we’ll look at it.”
