When reading this, the first thing that came into my head was "what about promotion points or other favorable actions?" I think the current system helps differentiate how hard someone worked on their fitness, rather than raw performance, aptitude, genetics or whatever.
Interesting... seems like a good solution. So we'd use this for things like Evaluations, deciding who goes to a school, etc?It would work like this: everyone takes the same test (like they do now) but with the same scoring standards. Then, that score can be compared against age and/or gender norms to produce a secondary rating. This shows two things- how a Soldier compares overall, and how he or she compares to his or her age/gender group.
Some possible secondary ratings, on a five-tiered scale going highest to lowest:
Excellence
High Pass
Pass
Below Standards
Fail
