The biggest problem is the PMA varies from department to department, division to division, and rating to

rating. Likewise race, sex, religion, ethnic group, and rated v non-rated can and do affect the PMA.

Often, it ensures the wrong person is promoted.

To be honest, the Navy needs to fix the performance evaluation system it uses.
