How to unlock the Infantry Efficiency achievement in Battlefield 3 - Definitive Guide

To obtain this achievement, you need to get four ribbons at least once each. You do NOT need to earn all four ribbons in one round for the achievement to unlock.

- Assault Rifle Ribbon (In one round, get 7 kills with Assault Rifles). Use the assault kit, and make sure you are using the primary weapon to get the kills. The starting assault rifles are the M16A3 and AK-74M

- Sniper Rifle Ribbon (In one round, get 7 kills with Sniper Rifles). Use the recon kit, and make sure to use the actual sniper rifle to get the kills. If you are attempting this early on, the guns you will most likely be using are the MK11 MOD 0 and the SVD, depending on if you are on the U.S. team or RU team.

- Light Machine Gun Ribbon (In one round, get 7 kills with Light Machine Guns). Use the support kit and be sure to get the kills with the primary weapon. The starting LMGs are the RPK-74M and the M27 IAR.

- Carbine Ribbon (In one round, get 7 kills with Carbines). Use the engineer kit and be sure to get the kills with the primary weapon. The starting Carbines are M4A1 for the U.S., and the AKS-74U for the RU.

You do NOT need to get all 7 kills without dying to get the ribbon, but they have to be in one round. The achievement will pop as soon as you see the last ribbon you need pop up mid-round.

I don't think this needs to be in one round, I just got the achievement yet the match I finished I only got the Carbine Ribbon. The other ribbons I got some other day.

I think what he means is that you only need to get 7 kills in one round for the ribbon to appear, not get all ribbons in one round for the achievement.

Yeah, that is what I was meant. I edited it to be a little more clear.

Does the Shotgun efficiency ribbon count towards this as well?

Shotgun does not count, nor does the personal defense weapon (PDW) ribbon.

I tend to get the most kills on Rush, specifically on defense. But it's all personal preference.

BF 3 made the Assault class into a Medic as well. That is how it is supposed to be.

I'm having a bit of trouble getting the 7 sniper kills in a round. I suck at sniping, but for some reason I can't get 7 in a round. They never seem to die from my shots

Play Metro with a x4 Scope and do short-med range headshots for an easy Sniper Efficiency

I found the easiest way to get the Sniper Efficiency medal was to take the scope off and use it like a single shot assault rifle, good for killing people at medium range.
