Should I Apply Before I Meet Joining Standards?

I’m currently out of work while training to meet the minimum joining standards to hopefully join sometime this year. Now people have told me the time between applying and getting your PJFA date can be a couple of months, so to join ASAP would it be recommended to apply now and train my arse off to hopefully reach the minimum joining requirements by the time my PJFA rolls around?

My current scores are as follows: Push Ups: 19 | Sit Ups: 25 | Pull Ups: 0 | Shuttle Run: 6.5

EDIT: Thank you for the replies. I’ll apply when I meet the minimum requirements 👍🏼🤙🏼
