I heard promotion criteria has changed alot these days. Used to be 2 continuous Bs but now it's changed to 5-7 years of good grades for non-scholars or farmers as the system is too top heavy. I'm an Mx 12 near the ceiling. C(first join) and 4 x Bs the past 5 years.

My boss told me I'm finally nearing the front of the promotion Q and will need to rotate and prove myself more lol. So take it easy.
