Apologies for my terrible English. Here is the question broken down and explained in what I hope is in better terms.
The situation is that a soldier was given a false pt score by a previous NCO for whatever reasons that he had. The soldier has now changed duty stations and was promoted to Sgt rank. She has not been pinned yet but took a diagnostic pt test and failed the pt test. Now the question is being raised about her really having a 300 pt score and she is scared and has been scared to say anything about the changing of her records. My question is what can she do as for this to not effect her career in a negative way? Especially in light of her not declining the promotion. I do understand that myself knowing what is going on and not saying anything can put me in the same boat as her. I know the wrong answer is to not say anything but what's the best way to go about doing something if anything to minimize the amount of damage done to her or multiple people's careers?

pass with a 300
or suck up her NCO failed her...hopefully it wasn't done solely by her.

If she was unaware of the falsification, bad on her for not paying attention to her packet, shows unprepared to assume a leadership role. If she WAS aware, UCMJ for falsefing official records, real bad on her. If the first, teachable moment. delay in promotion for more seasoning, move out. the second, no help for her on this, take the pain of whatever comes down.

She needs to stand up get on the horn and tell her COC about what went on everything. Tell the story and ask for forgiveness learn from the mistake and move on.
