- Abstract
- This study analyzed the Correlation between the Air Force officers who were promoted
to the high class ranks through competitive "elite-ization" among the Air
Force Academy graduates and their grade point averages (GPA's) in the academy.
The population of the study included the generals and colonels who graduated from
the Air Force Academy.
If the correlation between the high positions of the regular college/university graduates
in companies and their GPA's in colleges/universities had been analyzed, the
result would have no universal validity because it means the comparison between
positions among different companies and GPA's among different colleges/ universities.
In case of the Air Force officers, however, they go through the unified
curriculum, work in the same area after being commissioned as second lieutenants,
and are promoted to higher ranks through a competitive selection process. Thus, a
positive correlation could conceivably be shown.
