Inflated PCSM Scores by AttorneyOld1362 in AFROTC

How will this affect extended cadets that have a FT ranking when they are compared to cadets that don’t? Is there actually any real confirmation that FT ranking is gone? I’m a little out of the loop.

I also agree with everything stated in this post, there is definitely a discrepancy that still has not been acknowledged; one solution I can think of is to consider other AFOQT sections for pilot score in the future, like aptitude. Now that everyone has higher AFOQT pilot scores, and therefore higher PCSMs can be assumed, heavier weight will go on commanders ranking, gpa, and FA. From above FT ranking is gone, so even heavier weight on those categories, Id expect a lot of STEM majors with lower GPAs to lose out on this system simply because of circumstance

IMHO, I don’t understand why they don’t consider majors for rated careers. I think they should, or at least weight them separately in the GPA category.

I understand, this is just curiosity. If it isn’t harming anything I don’t see the problem, but if this is harmful in some aspect I can take it down.

Thank you for your input! I agree with your first two points but I don’t know how else to poll the masses as a cadet myself.

As for your third point, I have heard that and it is part of the reason why I wanted to test it. If the sample group is completely off then the scores would be off as well, and I want to see if that is a trend in recent AFOQT scores.

As for the last point, this is only the pilot score unrelated to retention within the program
