I took it in Sac a couple months ago at MEPS.

Scored very will with a 95 AFQT and 129 GT, predicted at 75 AFQT.

Honestly, the best advice I can give, study what you dont know right before the test so it is fresh in your mind.
Obviously this is not the best way to learn something, but it works to keep it fresh in your head. That's what I did with all the geometry formulas that I hadn't looked at since I was 15.

That and use process of elimination. On math problems, if you can do the math at least somewhat correctly, knock out a couple of the obvious wrong ones, then fine tune it until you get to the right answer.

I finished most of the test fairly quickly, just take it one question at a time and give it your best shot.

MA's do seem to be advancing right now. I deployed over here with a bunch of MA3's and now they're all MA2's.
If you wanted to be a real cool guy though, you would be a Hospital Corpsman

But anyway just make sure you get a good nights sleep before and a healthy breakfast, and don't stress over it. Good Luck.

Been too long since I took it, but I remember being there pretty much all day long. It was not a fun time. The higher your overall score, the more jobs that you will qualify for. Be careful after the results come back because the recruiter will try and put you in the highest level job that he can get you in rather then what you truly want. If your score is very high, he will push you into the more advanced ratings such as electronics, fire control, etc. He may not even show you other ratings that you are qualified for because the push is for the more advanced stuff. And don't just pick a rating based on what the current advancement is like. It can change fast, and what might be advancing fast right now can come to a screeching halt the next cycle. I've seen it happen many times.

If you ever need any advice on different jobs they might offer and don't truly understand what they are talking about, send me a PM and I'll help you out. I'm counting down days until my retirement as a Chief Electronics Tech and have twenty years experience in a lot of different areas of the NAVY. I've been on ships, overseas, air station, and now work with EOD.

Go to http://march2success.com and study. Stay relaxed. Don't worry about your score.

GT score is probably most important. Score over 110 and you are pretty much golden for any job, especially MI.

GT score is probably most important. Score over 110 and you are pretty much golden for any job, especially MI.

Yeah I wish my recruiter would have told me that. Instead I decided to go for the "you get to blow stuff up every day" job, combat engineer. Yeah, you dont get to blow stuff up every day.

My main goal is MA rating, my friend who's in the Navy said if I work hard I'll move up in the ranks especially as a MA.

May have changed recently... been out a few years... but MA's sea/shore rotation was the worst of all rates. 2 years shore to 6 years sea.

Good Luck.

I Scored 91 on the test last year in highschool. I dont know how far out of school you are, but it deffinetly helped alot. study up on math most of all, and general science.

[Atomic Donut]

Like oters said practice Math. Work on fractions, decimals, and percentages because that is the majority of questions. changing fractions to decimal. And get a study guide from barnes and nobles. Those things works

[MrLogan]

Good luck. Don't sweat it too much, the ASVAB is super easy. I took it cold and had an AFQT of 95.

Get a book! I didn't went I took it over 20 years ago (did 20) but things are so much different now and it is so important. I had decent scores and good great jobs but it was interesting to meet some people that wanted to change jobs and couldn't because of their old scores. Heard from training that after a couple of years you could retake the test and get old scores thrown out but don't know process.

[johnniezombie]

What type of job do you want? I know for a fact that the military is taking kids scoring 30...the asvab is just a formality now...
