Hi I’ve been studying a lot for the asvab. My only weakness is Arithmetic Reasoning and word knowledge. I need at least a 31 for the army but I would to score way higher than that. Please help.
Brittany,
Which parts of the Arithmetic Reasoning are the struggling with the most? The AR test is mostly word problems, but they all stem from math basics. I am currently posting new materials in the Mathematics Knowledge section of the site. Start there, and take the exam at the end of each lesson that is live.
Don’t worry, Brittany. The ASVAB is just another test and we will get you ready so you can join the Army. Just keep in mind there is no easy way to pass the ASVAB, it still requires the time and effort to learn the material and practice. That is the whole point of why I am doing this, to help everyone earn a good ASVAB score.
You’ve got great insights about Help With The ASVAB Test, keep up the good work!
Hey I just took the CAT-ASVAB last Monday and I got an AFQT of 19 but my scores looked really good. If you don’t mind I am going to put the Standard Scores for each section down:
GS:49
AR:33
WK:53
PC:36
MK:43
EI:40
AS:46
MC:40
AO:49
VE:46
And I used the Army ASVAB Score Calculator and I was surprised about how many jobs that I qualified for. And my recruiter said I had to wait 6 months until I had to take it again. The MOS I am wanting is Chaplain’s Assistant or Military Police. I remember when I took the ASVAB paper version at school Fall of 2010 and I had an AFQT of 39 they said that they could not use those scores because my Social Security Number was not on it. I was really hopeful but then when I heard that I lost hope completely.
