The purpose, method, and validity of the current AFROTC selection system were examined and discussed. The purpose, method, and validity of the current AFROTC selection system were examined and discussed. The current AFROTC selection system assigns a Quality Index Score (QIS) to each candidate. This QIS score is the basis of selection decisions, and is generated from a weighted average of six variables: Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) scores, cumulative grade point average, three composite scores from the Air Force Officer Qualifying Test (AFOQT), and an overall rating assigned by the Detachment Commander.
