To become a selectee as an early candidate, a
person may need a higher FMS than regular candidates
competing for the same rate. That is because the early
candidate “eligibility zone” and regular candidate “cut
score” may be established at different FMS levels.
(See table 5-3.)
Q7.
DOD manning restrictions determine the
number of advancement quotas early
candidates may fill. The quotas are restricted to
a maximum of 20% of the total enlisted forces for
E-4 and a maximum 10% for what paygrades?
HIGH-YEAR TENURE
High-year tenure (HYT) is the maximum time
allowed between paygrades for professional growth
(advancement in rate) to occur. HYT for E-4 is 10
years; for E-5/6 is 20 years; for E-7 is 24 years; for E-8
is 26 years; for E-9 is 30 years. Enlisted members
cannot remain on active duty beyond their HYT
without an approved waiver from Navy Personnel
Command. E-7/8/9 candidates who submit a Fleet
Reserve request for their HYT will remain eligible for
selection board consideration if they reach HYT by 30
June for E-7 and 31 August for E-8/9 of the year

Table 5-2 explains the final multiple score computation using a step-by-step process given the following known
values:
