Yea , Army promotion above E-5 is based on a point system.

The best way to acheive the points needed for promotion is through corrospodance corses and other college credit.

Before you can make E-7 ( or maybe E-8 ) , you will need the equivilent of a bachlors degree in points.

Now in the Air Force , in order to get above E-4 , you have to test for it.... Against the WHOLE AIR FORCE!!!. Meaning you are able to get your E-4 , you take the test at the pre-designated time. You have only so many spots avalible. So the highest scores in the Air Force get the promotion.
