Why did Data never take the bridge officer's test?
Troi, who was not adept at things like warp core breaches, somehow passed this test, becoming a full commander, yet Data remained a lieutenant commander after this? Data had total recall of any situation, yet we never saw him tAke the test. Does Starfleet have some protocol in place that says androids can't be promoted as quickly as humanoids? It seems like Data would have grounds to file a grievance up the chain of command.
