Top block limit for OERs?

Top block limit for OERs?

• A. 24%
• B. 49%
• C. 75%
• D. 60%

Answer: (B)

The idea being tested is how the OER rating system distributes top performers. In this system, there is a cap on how many officers can be placed in the top performance block during a rating period. That cap is set to be just under half of the officers evaluated. The purpose is to preserve meaningful differentiation in performance across the group; if too many were in the top block, the distinction between levels would blur and it would undermine promotions decisions and career assessments. So the correct choice points to that limit—just under half of those rated. The other options would either be far too small or exceed the cap, which wouldn’t reflect how the rating distribution is managed.
