<p>Hi everyone, </p>
<p>I'm a 2013 Plebe and I am curious to know what my current military performance grade is. Its not up on MIDs but I figured that there would be a way to calculate it with the current information that I have. </p>
<p>Sem QPR 4.0
PRT 88.1
Peer Rank 13/40
Upper 10/40
CO 25/40 (grades Plebes based on how they perform on the PRT)
Overall 23/40
MIL QPR 4.0</p>
<p>Your going to have a B in aptitude since that is solely based on your overall ranking. I believe the top 30% receive As next 40% or so Bs, ,and mostly everyone else gets a C. Overall nice work in your first semester with your 4.0.</p>
<p>You’re hitting 2 baggers with runners on base! You’ll soon find, not to disregard the other measures, but majoring in the majors means getting A’s in the classroom @ USNA, i.e. you miss those classroom A’s and your rank tanks. Conversely PRTs, etc. have a lesser impact. That said, work to ace them all, being cognizant that a primary strategy of a USNA education becomes an exercise in choice-making. This can become frustrating for those determined to try and get it all, all the time. Conversely, don’t allow that understanding to disable or diminish your efforts.</p>
<p>Congrats, you’re doing well. Many, and I mean MANY Mids would be delighted to swap for your marks. You’ve earned a very good, relaxing break. Take it.</p>
<p>Looks like your Military QPR was calculated in MIDS before your performance grade was entered. Your performance grade is based on your rankings.</p>
<p>If you look in MIDS now, your Military QPR probably dropped slightly (or significantly because the performance grade is worth a huge chunk of the military QPR) due to your B in performance. Usually a company officer (murderboard) ranking of 13/40 or less leads to a B. In a company of 40 plebes, 13 get A’s, 13 get B’s and 14 get C’s, usually.</p>
<p>You’re doing very well. Let me give you some of my rankings and show you that the Naval Academy experience is all about PROGRESSION.</p>
