The ASVAB is a battery of tests given by the armed forces to assess several different skillsets. It can determine which military occupational specialties (MOS) a person is eligible for.
Yes - The ASVAB (Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery) as its title suggests is used by all the services.
No but you can be a crew chief lol
High school students can take the student ASVAB at their schools. The score is not used by the military. The ASVAB for enlistment is given at the MEPS, or you can arrange a CAT ASVAB through a recruiter.
The formula to derive the AFQT "raw Score" is 2VE + AR (Arithmetic Reasoning) + MK (Mathematics Knowledge). This formula results in the AFQT "raw score," which is then converted into a percentile score. [cited from ABCs of the ASVAB. pg 3. by Rod Powers About.com]
It depends on what job you are looking to join and the type of score it requires in different areas of the asvab. BAR NONE it is the special forces. SF does NOT have the highest asvab requirement most of them require in the 40-55 range. for the USAF most of the higher asvab required jobs are of electronics backgrounds
The ASVAB tet is administered absolutely free to anyone interested in joining the armed forces. Generally a recruiter will pick you up and drive you to the test as well as put you up in hotel room for the night, all free of charge.
Selection to the Special Forces is not solely dependent on your ASVAB Score and there is no one section of the test to focus your attention on. Rather, the ASVAB Requirement for the Special Forces is a GT or General Technical score of at least 110. The GT is a composite taken from several areas of the test. To get a good score in this area you should seek to do your best in all portions of the test. A good test preparation strategy would be to visit your local library and check out several ASVAB Test books which are published by at least 3 or 4 different companies. Practice taking the ASVAB Test, treating yourself the same way that the test proctors will do, that is sitting up straight at a desk or table, setting a clock alarm and stopping at the ringing of the alarm. Your goal will be to finish as many questions as possible (correctly) by the time the alarm goes off. Once finished, you should carefully grade your test, then for each incorrect answer you should read the explanation for that question and the various answers given to understand what was the correct answer and why you got it wrong. For the ASVAB, wrong answers do not count against you (unlike the SAT), so when you get a question that you do not know, you should try to make the best guess you can, and mark the question so that you can read up on the subject to better prepare you for the next try. You should practice taking the ASVAB Test 2 or 3 times per week, ideally alternating between the various preparation books in order to get the broadest range of questions. Finally on ASVAB Test Day, you will find that you are confident and prepared, and after about four or five questions you will likely find a question that you recognize nearly verbatim and you will instantly know the answer and this will help you to relax and breeze through the remainder of the test.
The highest score you can get on the ASVAB is a 99
