START guide, and the test you take at RTC

It should. Just remember that you need to pass your initial PFA as well to get that advancement!

It was my understanding from my recruiters that the test only could advance you from E-1 to E-2 but I may be wrong about that. That is probably a question for Craig or your Recruiter.

Shando11 is right, you will not get E-3 from the PQS, beyond E-2 it is up to the RDCs who they're going to promote

Also, the PQS is not a recruiters test, you have to pass a PQS test on your first few days of boot camp AND your initial PFA to get E2 from PQS in boot camp (but if your recruiter doesn't sign off on the PQS before you go you also can't get it, this may be what you're referring to). That's as far as I know anyways.
