What is the composite score in WAPS?

• A. The sum of only EPR scores.
• B. A separate test score not used for promotion decisions.
• C. The combined total of EPR, PFE, and SKT (and related components)
• D. The count of PFE and SKT sections passed.

Answer: (C)

WAPS promotions use one overall score that comes from adding together all the major elements used for promotion. The composite score is the combined total of the Enlisted Performance Report (EPR), the Promotion Fitness Examination (PFE), and the Skill Knowledge Test (SKT), along with any related components. Each part contributes points to that single total, which is then used to rank airmen for promotion.

This is why the other descriptions don’t fit: it isn’t just one part like EPR, and it isn’t a separate test score used independently for promotion, nor is it merely a count of sections passed. It’s the summed total across these components that determines promotion eligibility.
