Where the thresholds fall

Every model's representative certification on each rating CEE Advanced checks, with its thresholds drawn. A model must clear every line of one path at once, on one certification, so these single-rating views show each hurdle, not the combined pass rate.
COP at 5°F11,218 rated models · median 2.0031% of rated models reach 2.1 on this rating alone.
