About USMC Cutting Scores

Cutting scores are released monthly by Marine Corps Manpower and Reserve Affairs (MMRA). These scores fluctuate based on:

  • Number of Marines eligible for promotion
  • Projected vacancies in each MOS
  • Overall retention rates
  • Force shaping requirements

Check back monthly for updated scores, or view Reserve Sergeant cutting scores if you’re in the Marine Corps Reserve.
