Composite score calculation troubles.

Im having trouble figuring out my composite score without using MOL's broken calculator. Mind you i thought i knew how. OK so here is my dilemma all my points added together comes to a 1660 computed through June 30 2010, but IPAC here at 3/5 and MOL says Official score: 1717. I did all the math by hand and it came to a 1660, Ive gone over it many times with Ipac to ensure it wasn't messed up. And they told me its a 1717. I don't mind having the higher score, I just want to know where these extra 57 "ghost" points came from. I added my GMP, Pros/Cons, TIS/TIG, MCI's, and re-enlistment points up to a grand total of 1660. Can anyone explain these ghost points?

Google Composite Score calculator or cutting score calculator. I found one the other day when I was looking up what I need to pick up for Cpl/Sgt once I finish all this damn schooling.

Edit: I'll look real quick and see if I can find it even though they are rough calculators

I used the the 5th link down, it is a Excel sheet. I would have edited my above post but either my laptop or internet is effed up so hope this helps Cpl

Thanks Marine i have the same one and i figured it out. MOL was counting my TIG, but had my TIS as 50 months, this puts me at 4 years 2 months, Ive been in 5 years. so do the math....1717. It was a stupid error and im annoyed i didn't catch it.

The best thing you can do early to pick up is get your PFT/CFT as high as you can. and do MCI's, ensure you do Leading marines, Personal financial management, and terrorism awareness. Then do whatever 4 after that. 7=100 points as you should know. If you have any questions let me know, im good on cutting scores for a guy in a Victor unit. I just had this error.
