I am asking as I have been given many responsibilities last year (presenting at international conference, participating in partnership research with other institutions, etc) and frankly, I was expecting a better grade - at least a C+ because during the previous years when I was doing less, I was also given a C. This is also not my promotion year - have not had any promotion since 2 years ago.

C is a good grade, but in a more layman term it means that you are an average performer. What is your sub-grade? What was communicated to you by your RO during year end review? It could be you are geo 4/5, which means that your KRA is more demanding. So once off events like presenting at national conference etc might not be impactful enough. Are you getting the same quantum? Getting a C this year with additional responsibilities might push you higher durig ranking, but might not be good enough to warrant a C+. It depends on how many people there are in your sub grade, particularly KPs, who will most likely outperform you.
