0 Gastone Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 Just use the HADIT VA MATH CSC Calculator, start with your Highest % and working down. 1 - 30; 4 @ 20; 3 @ 10, then hit the SUBMIT. Semper Fi broncovet 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 RJ White Posted May 18, 2017 Author Share Posted May 18, 2017 @Gastone: I used Hadit's calculator, and before that, I asked the Virginia DVA to determine my combined rating, and before that, I used the VA's chart. My calculations were same as the Virginia DVA's. Yet, each was different from the VA's. I didn't reveal my combined rating because I wanted to see if someone could reach the same, higher combined rating the VA reached. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 HadIt.com Elder Buck52 Posted May 18, 2017 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted May 18, 2017 I would say if they add up all the 7 % you posted from 08 to present just using VA Math 30% 20% 10-10-10-% 20% 30% I came up with a 77.13 and that would be a combined rate of 80% unless I am not counting all your percentage that they rated you?

0 HadIt.com Elder Buck52 Posted May 18, 2017 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted May 18, 2017 if there is another 20% the combined rated would not change you need to get past a 85% to hit the 90 %combined rating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 RJ White Posted May 18, 2017 Author Share Posted May 18, 2017 Buck: Because ratings are rounded, you're close enough. You may have forgotten to apply the bilateral factor for my lower extremities. Doing that would have brought the total north of 80 but to the south of 85. Thanks, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
