Hi all, I'm just here to say that the beep test is an unfair measurement of students fitness - by all means, make us run laps around an oval instead, because this means we can go at a pace that suits everyone else's fitness levels, heights, weights and mental health. However, the beep test makes us run faster and faster at an increasing speed until we can no longer go on; resulting in many people becoming ill from over exertion.


Please sign this petition to help stop me from doing the beep test tomorrow :) as well as saving many innocent people's happiness from being torn viscous,y from their tortured souls (this is what the beep test does).

The exhaustion is setting in but we are inching toward one hundred signatures. Please take a moment to push this further so we can finally be taken seriously.

I feel uncomfortable running the test, because I feel like I am being judged for not doing as well as other kids. I try my hardest but apparently that is not enough, I have to reach what they think is the correct standard.

I completely and totally agree with this. If someone in my class gets a bad score, our teacher shames them. Also, you can only get a drink of water if you go 50 times over and some people are begging our teacher to give them water. He still doesn't give it to them.

I just did the beep test and I completeled it with an A (120 back and fourths) after doing it I had to go to the office for my terrible asthma. I have been wheezing, coughing, and not being able to speak. This is too much work for children.

This test is cruel. I was forced to take it by my highschool PE teacher and ended up becoming physically ill afterwards. I threw up several times. When i told my pe teacher this she laughed and weight shamed me.

I have bad anxiety and I had an anxiety before and after the test also I didn't have my inhaler and they made me run. A friend of mine and I had anxiety attacks in our gym class because we have social anxiety we were shaking and nervous, also all the people in our gym class were upperclassmen.

Everytime we went through the pacer test at my school at least one kid vomitted after in each class. It pushed most past their physical limits and in a negative manner. It does more harm than help.
