PRT Before Shipping to OCS

I have recently been selected for OCS and there is no real timetable for my ship out date aside from it being FY27 but I am still behind in terms of my PRT scores. I will be taking a practice PRT with my recruiter and will most likely not be passing in terms of standards. If I don't pass will they cancel my OCS selection or will they just tell me to keep working out? I have been running and weight training/doing pushups for a while now and I am definitely improving my scores. Since my ship out date is not until FY27 I know for a fact I can improve to make PRT standards but I am worried my OCS selection might get cancelled (if that is a thing) if I don't pass the practice PRT.

I have been going through the PRT forums and a lot of them are older posts/replies so I am just looking for any clarification. If this post is not allowed or has been answered somewhere, please let me know and I will delete my post.
 
I’m not sure what happens but I will say my best scores in all three categories were with my pre-OCS PRT, adrenaline is a hell of a thing. Also your PRT that matters has to be within 45 days of your ship date so you have a little time to keep improving

Thank you! So my recruiter is having me do a practice PRT next week but my recruiter told me I won't be leaving until FY27, which could be August 2026 or June 2027. Either way I will have more than 3 months to keep training which I know for a fact I will be able to meet PRT standards. If it is the case that it is 45 days before my ship out date, I should be okay then. Right now my PRT is 25 pushups, 1:40 plank and 16 minute 1.5miles. I am on the heavier side and have been on a caloric deficit. As I continue to lose weight I should be oaky.
 
Yeah I know someone leaving with me soon that had to redo their recruiter PRT because it was just outside the 45 days. I’d use the Navy PFA app to see where you’re at. Just keep doing them. It gets easier with consistency. Also a piece of advice I got for OCS was it’s either 10 minutes or three weeks. While I’m getting ready to leave that’s been a helpful thought to push me through PRTs or workouts. You’ll either suffer now or suffer then lol
