Let me clarify those 2 components.

Years of experience--- we get points for years of experience. Those points are awarded after each year you complete,(up to 7). In other words, whether you have 7 yrs in or 50 yrs in, its all the same. The points you get for experience make up 15% of your rating. So, its 15 points that you get.

Peer review--- I'll admit that this is one area that COULD be looked at as being suspect. This is how it works. You work a game with a 5 man crew. The other 4 guys on your crew will submit a rating on you for that game you just worked. A scale of 1-10 is used. This makes up 25 percent of the overall rating. So, if you got all 10s in a given year you'd get 25 points added to your rating. I can see where some might say that this an area where " good ol' boys" (as you put it) could be mean to minorities and give them bad ratings. Now, this isn't what happens. But I would rather just give all minorities a standard 25 for this part of the rating if it was an issue. Rather than serving up a state final on a silver platter.

The part of the rating system that creates the seperation is....(drumroll please) YES.... The Exam!!!!

Oops, almost forgot. Cooperation. This is just a 5 point part of the system. Everyone gets these 5 points unless you're just really difficult to get along with and cause trouble. But like

The exam makes up 40% of the rating. And folks who STUDY tend to make well on the exam. Folks who do not STUDY tend to make not as well.

So, why make folks study to better themselves??? There's no need, we'll just reward based on skin color.
