The ASVAB (Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery) is a multiple-aptitude test used by the U.S. Armed Forces to determine qualification for enlistment and to assign appropriate job roles within the military. The Department of Defense offers the ASVAB, which is a crucial step for anyone interested in a military career. The exam includes nine subtests covering areas including.
  1. General Science (GS): Assesses knowledge of life science, earth and space science, and physical science.
  2. Arithmetic Reasoning (AR): Measures the ability to solve basic arithmetic word problems.
  3. Paragraph Comprehension (PC): Assesses the ability to obtain information from written material.
  4. Mathematics Knowledge (MK): Measures knowledge of mathematical concepts and applications.
  5. Electronics Information (EI): Tests knowledge of electrical equipment and systems, circuits, and basic electronic principles.
  6. Auto and Shop Information (AS): Assesses knowledge of automotive maintenance and repair, and wood and metal shop practices. (This subtest is divided into two separate sections on the P&P-ASVAB: Auto Information (AI) and Shop Information (SI).)
  7. Mechanical Comprehension (MC): Measures understanding of mechanical principles and physics.
  8. Word Knowledge (WK): Tests vocabulary knowledge through the ability to understand the meaning of words through synonyms.
  9. Assembling Objects (AO): Tests spatial orientation and ability to determine how an object will look when its parts are put together. *This subtest is only part of the CAT-ASVAB, and Pocket Prep does not offer this section.
The test is available in both computerized (CAT-ASVAB) and paper-and-pencil formats. The CAT-ASVAB typically takes about 1.5 hours to complete, while the paper version takes about 3 hours. Scores are reported as percentiles, with a score of 50 indicating that the examinee scored better than 50% of other test-takers. The ASVAB scores are used to determine enlistment eligibility and the best job fit within the military. The scores are valid for two years.
