What Should You Do If You Didn’t Promote?
If you are particularly interested in this post, I’m sorry. You or someone you care about probably failed to promote. In reality, nowadays it is normal and expected to fail to promote to O5 and O6, so you have company. Here are my suggestions for those that fail to promote.
Try to Figure Out Why You Didn’t Promote
First, try to figure out why you didn’t promote. Because the promotion board members are not allowed to speak about your board, you’ll never actually find out why you failed to promote, but you can usually take a pretty educated guess if you talk to the right people.
If any of these things happened to you, they are likely a main reason you didn’t promote:
- Any PFA/BCA failures in the last 5 years, especially if you have not passed since your last failure.
- Legal issues, such as a DUI or any other legal trouble.
- Failure to become board certified.
There are other things that could happen to you that make it difficult but not impossible to promote. They include:
- You have not been operational or deployed at all, or you have done so much less than your peers.
- Having non-observed (NOB) fitreps before the board, such as those in full-time outservice training.
- Spending too much time in the fleet as a GMO, Flight Surgeon, or UMO. This is mostly because it causes you to come into zone for O5 while you are still in GME, and is more of a problem if your residency is long.
- Never getting a competitive early promote (EP) fitrep. Many officers who fail to select have never had a competitive EP fitrep in their current rank. This can be because they were stationed places without competitive groups and they get 1/1 fitreps, or it can be because they were in a competitive group and did not break out and get an EP. To me this is the #1 ingredient to promote…competitive EP fitreps. If you don’t have them, you are really up against it unless you are in a senior operational position that carries a lot of weight.
- Receiving potentially adverse fitreps. This most commonly happens when you are at an operational command and your reporting senior is not someone who is used to ranking Medical Corps officers, although it could happen for other reasons (like your reporting senior felt you deserved this type of fitrep). The most common situation would be if there is a competitive group of 2 officers but both are given must promote (MP) fitreps instead of 1 getting an EP and the other the MP. When both get an MP, it reflects poorly on both officers unless the reason for this is CLEARLY explained in the fitrep narrative, which it often is not. The other thing that happens is that a reporting senior gives you a 1/1 MP instead of a 1/1 EP. If you are ever getting a 1/1 fitrep, make sure you get an EP. You should consider getting a 1/1 MP an adverse fitrep. If there is no way around this, often because the reporting senior has a policy that they don’t give newly promoted officers an EP, make sure that this policy is clear in the fitrep narrative.
- Having a declining fitrep. Mostly this happens when you go from getting an EP to an MP on your fitrep under the same reporting senior. If it is because you changed competitive groups, like you went from being a resident to a staff physician, that is understandable and not a negative. If you didn’t change competitive groups, though, make sure the reason you declined is explained.
- Making it obvious to the promotion board that you didn’t update your record. The most obvious ways a promotion board will know you didn’t update your record is if your Officer Summary Record (OSR) is missing degrees that you obviously have (like your MD or DO) or if many of the sections of your OSR are either completely blank or required updating by the board recorders. Remember that although promotion board recorders will correct your record for you, anything they do and any corrections they make are annotated to the board. While a few corrections are OK, you don’t want a blank record that the recorders had to fill in. It demonstrates that you didn’t update your record.
Who Actually Promotes?
So who actually promotes to O5 and O6? In general, the officer who promotes has:
- Achieved board certification.
- Spent time in both a military treatment facility and in the operational or headquarters setting.
- A demonstrated history of excellence as an officer. In other words, whenever they are in a competitive group, they successfully break out and get an EP fitrep. Being average is just not good enough anymore.
- No PFA failures, legal problems, declining fitreps, or potentially adverse fitreps.
- Updated their record, and if they previously failed to select they reviewed their record with their Detailer and actively worked to improve it.
What Do You Do If You Failed to Promote?
Realize that it is not the end of the world. Based on the recent promotion board statistics (which you can get in the Promo Prep), most officers were passed over for O5 or O6, but a large number of the officers selected were from the above zone group.
If you do nothing, you will continue to get looked at by promotion boards until you retire, resign, or are forced out of the Navy. There is no limit to the number of chances you get to promote and your record will be evaluated for promotion every year. That said…
You need to try to promote. Consider sending a letter to the promotion board. What do you say in this letter? First, briefly state that you want to be promoted and to continue your career in the Navy. Second, explain what a promotion would allow you to do that you can’t do at your current rank. Answer the question, “Why should they promote you?”
For example, if you want to be a Department Head at a large military treatment facility (MTF), a senior operational leader, or a Residency Director (or whatever you want to do), tell them that you need to be promoted to be competitive for these jobs. The Navy wants to promote leaders. Make it clear to them that you are a motivated future leader.
Try and get letters of support to attach to your letter. These letters should be from the most senior officers who can personally attest to your value to the Navy. In other words, it is probably better to get a letter from an O6 who knows you well than a 3 star who doesn’t. If you are not sure who to ask for letters, ask those more senior to you or your Detailer for advice. Your Specialty Leader is always someone to consider if he/she knows you well and can speak to your contributions to the specialty and Navy.
Have your record reviewed by your Detailer, Specialty Leader, or other trusted senior advisor. Because of promotion board confidentiality, you will never know the reason(s) you did not promote, but most of the time experienced reviewers can come up with an educated guess. They’ll often find things that you were not even aware of, like potentially adverse fitreps, or information missing from your record. My promo prep document will help you as well.
Do everything you can to get “early promote” or “EP” fitreps. This is largely accomplished by continually striving for positions of increased leadership. You need to get a job that has historically led to a promotion while keeping in mind that the new MC career path emphasizes that all need to be operational.
As a LCDR who got passed over for CDR, try to get one of these jobs and excel at it (this list is not exhaustive and these positions are not the only path to CDR, but they are a good start):
- Assistant Program Director
- Division/Department Head
- Fleet Surgical Team (FST) Specialty Staff
- Global Health Engagement (GHE) Staff Officer
- Group/Senior Flight Surgeon (FS)
- Medical Battalion Specialty Staff
- Medical Executive Committee (MEC) Member
- Regimental Surgeon
- Senior Undersea Medical Officer (UMO)
- Ship or Group Senior Medical Officer (SMO)
- SMO/Medical Director
If you are a CDR who got passed over for CAPT, try to get one of these jobs and excel at it:
- Assistant Specialty Leader or Specialty Leader
- Chief Medical Officer (CMO)
- Director/Large Department Head at a NMRTC/MTF
- Division/Group/Wing Surgeon
- FST Officer-in-Charge (OIC) / CATF Surgeon
- GHE, Headquarters, or Navy Personnel Command (PERS) Staff
- Group UMO
- LHA/LHD/CVN SMO
- MEC Chair
- OIC
- Program Director
- Senior GHE Billet
Meet with your chain-of-command. After you’ve been passed over is not the time to be passive. You need to sit down with your leadership and get an honest assessment from them of how you’re doing and what they would recommend continuing to advance your career. You may not like what you hear, but it is better to find out early if they don’t think you’re doing a good job or that you are unlikely to break out on your fitreps. That way you can try and put yourself in a better situation by changing commands.
Things You Should Not Do
In addition to the above list of things you should do, there are a few things you should not do:
- Do not lie in your letter to the board. In other words, don’t tell them you want to do Executive Medicine if you don’t really want to. Your record reads like a book, and if it tells a story that is contrary to what your letter says, this is unlikely to help you and may hurt you.
- Do not send long correspondence. Promotion boards have to read everything sent to them, and a long letter may not be appreciated. Keep it brief and to the point.
- Do not ask your current CO to write you a letter to the board if they’ve done an observed fitrep on you. His or her opinion about you should be reflected on that fitrep, so they don’t need to write you a letter. If they’ve never given you an observed fitrep or there is some new information not reflected on prior fitreps, they could write you a letter. Ultimately it is up to them whether they write the letter, though.
- Do not discuss anything adverse unless you want the board to notice and discuss it. This issue comes up frequently and people will ask me for advice, but ultimately it is up to the individual officer. The one thing I can guarantee is that if you send a letter to the board and discuss something adverse, they will notice it because they will read your letter! If you think there is a chance the adverse matter will get overlooked, it is probably better not to mention it and keep your fingers crossed.
Never Stop Trying
Those are my tips for those who find themselves above zone. Most importantly, if you want to promote, NEVER STOP TRYING. I personally know of people who got promoted their 9th look!
The Updated FY26 Promo Prep is Now Chapter 3 in The Wealthy Captain!
This blog has been primarily about three things:
- Helping you advance your career
- Personal finance
- Keeping you in the know
I’m going to combining #1 and #2 into a new resource called The Wealthy Captain: Your Guide to Becoming One. This means that the document that used to be called “The Promo Prep” or “Joel Schofer’s Promo Prep” is now Chapter 3 in The Wealthy Captain.
There will come a time when I no longer can do this blog, so my plan is to slowly but surely turn The Wealthy Captain into a lasting resource with timeless advice. For now, it is a very short 30 page or so e-book, but as I work through all the content I’ve written in the last 10 years, my hope is that it will become much more than that.
Don’t worry. I’ll make sure that everyone can easily find what they are looking for as I slowly update things. In other words, I’ll keep the Promo Prep tab on the blog since people are used to going there. But there will now be a Wealthy Captain tab as well.
The FY26 promotion boards are coming. Happy preparing!

FY25 O4 and O5 Promotion Board Opportunities and Convening Orders
Here are the just released FY25 O4 and O5 promotion opportunities, found on page 2 of the convening orders, which are at the bottom of this post. You’ll see that Congress took away the 95% cap and the cap is now 99.9%:
O4
- Dental Corps – 99.9% (up from 94%)
- Medical Corps – 99.9% (up from 95%)
- Medical Service Corps – 94% (same as last year)
- Nurse Corps – 95% (up from 85%)
O5
- Dental Corps – 93% (down from 95%)
- Medical Corps – 95% (up from 94%)
- Medical Service Corps – 70% (up from 62%)
- Nurse Corps – 85% (up from 80%)
Changes in the FY25 O6 Staff Corps Promotion Board Convening Order
Promotion board precepts and convening orders guide board members when they are deciding who to promote, so it is a useful exercise to look for changes from year to year. This will allow you to better prepare for the boards and adjust to the changing seas Navy Medicine is navigating.
The full convening order is at the bottom of this post, and here are the changes from FY24 to FY25:
Page 2
This is the page most people are interested in because it provides the promotion opportunities. Here are how they changed in FY25:
- Medical Corps – remained 90%
- Dental Corps – increased from 91% to 92%
- Medical Service Corps – increased from 60% to 70%
- Nurse Corps – increased from 60% to 71%
Why did these changes occur? The short answer is that the promotion opportunity is planned using the most current manning data available. If more people get out or we need more people, opportunities will likely rise. If less people get out or we need less people, they will fall.
Pages 6-7
Paragraph d.(1)(c) is completely new. The short version of what changed is that the language was changed to emphasize the value of “graduate-level education that develops naval warfare competencies…” On page 7 in paragraph d.(1)(c)1. they also added that graduate education should be “relevant to naval warfighting”, which also seems to sing the same tune.
Overall, it just seems to be one more step in a string of changes emphasizing naval education like JPME I/II, War College, Naval Postgraduate School, etc.
Page 9
They reworded paragraph d.(1)(e) to emphasize creativity and innovation. There’s probably not a lot that is actionable due to this change.
Page 10
In (c), let’s get rid of “perform to plan” and Get Real, Get Better (GRGB)! In (d), they changed language about “connectedness and inclusion.” In (3), they added language about leaders who “build great people, leaders and teams, achieving outcomes through a deep investment in their people.”
To me, the takeaway is that you need to make sure you understand GRGB because although it was rolled out by the last SG and CNO, it is still alive and well.
Page 11
In section (4), they replaced the portion about COVID-related PCS issues and how that should not adversely affect anyone’s record with language that talks about how COVID vaccine refusals should not adversely affect records/boards.
Also, under the INDOPACOM expertise area, they added that knowledge about “operational contingency planning for Indo-Pacific war plans” should be given special consideration.
Pages 14-16 – The “Medical Community Considerations”
This section is where most of the medically specific meat is. We have a new SG, so as you could expect it has been completely modified. I’d read the whole thing. My actionable takeaways are:
- Have a variety of commands/jobs throughout your career.
- Navy relevant education (JPME) and subspecialty/DUINS training is valued.
- You need be both operationally and clinically relevant.
- Get board certified.
- Sustained superior performance in a variety of leadership positions is highly valued.
