Denied
The Board denied a higher rating in excess of 70 percent for PTSD with TBI, finding that the Veteran's symptoms did not warrant a more severe rating.
The deciding factor: The evidence showed occupational and social impairment with deficiencies in most areas, but not total occupational and social impairment, which is consistent with a 70 percent rating under the criteria.
