You're going to need a lot more than just getting good at swimming. You're also going to have to get good at swimming with fins. Passing the PST is only the first part in your journey and it should be a reflection of your overall fitness. If you're only training for the PST you're doing it wrong.
You're endurance needs much better than the 20 something minutes it takes to complete the PST.

If you want more information PM me. Include these modified results: regular PST but up the time for push and sit to 3 mins and do a 4 mile run instead of the mile and a half bullshit.

This is a much better gauge of your endurance and strength.

ill attempt to use your suggestions when i practice the pct again this Monday
i actually do 4 mile runs each morning, 2x 2 mile sprints from my house to my old highschool then rest 5 minutes and sprint back home, sometimes i will run 14 miles or more but i only do that once every other week because im afraid of ruining my knees
