Is the unit armorer course worth promotion points? If so, if I add it to my PPW before the 8th, will I still make the cutoff?

I attended the unit armorer course in 2016 however my PPW never had it but my SRB does. If it worth points like I think it is then I should make cutoff as long as it reflects on my ppw before the 8th? I was just shy 10 points this month.

I don't believe armorer school is worth any promotion points. At least, it wasn't worth any when I was still in.

When I was in, 2005 - 2009, it was worth points if you weren't a typical MOS that handled the arms room. I was a wheeled vehicle mechanic so I got points but the office and supply clerks in my unit didn't get any. Rhings may have changed since then though.

If you still have the DA Form 87, the certificate of training for completing the course you can take it to your S1 and see if they can add it to your SRB/ERB for points and it will appear in your PPW under military education. I did this with one of the courses that didn't show up on my ERB sometimes they have to enter it manually.
