In 2008, the qualifying time for the 1500m was separated into two categories:

A standard = 3minutes 39 seconds

B standard = 3minutes 43 seconds

An "A" standard time will get you an automatic entry, a "B" standard will only get you in the event if there are not enough A standard athletes registered to run the event.

The qualifying period is usually open for around 6 months prior to the games.

It depends on the field of the participants. For the U.S., you need an "A" qualifying time of 1:56.60 to go to the trials. The top three runners will qualify for the Olympics. The time required to be in the top three will be detrmined at the trials in Oregon.

The average time for Olympic 1500 meter is 3:25 to 3:45. This is average time, where athletes break the ribbons, but it also depends on practice and stamina of individuals.

How do you calculate split time?

A split time is basically the time it takes to run a fraction of a race. If there is a 1500 meter race, there could be split times at 400 meters, 800 meters, and 1200 meters. So the time it took to run the first 400 meters of the 1500 meter race would be called a split time.
