How This Assessment Works
This self-assessment tool asks you to select conditions and describe your symptom severity. Based on your answers, it estimates what VA disability rating you might receive for each condition, then combines them using VA math (the "whole person" method defined in 38 CFR § 4.25).
Your estimated rating is a starting point — not a diagnosis or guarantee. The VA determines your actual rating through medical evidence review and a Compensation & Pension (C&P) exam. Many factors affect your final rating that a self-assessment cannot capture.
