This video will break down what the bare minimum score for the ASVAB test is (also known as the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery), what scores you should aim for when taking the ASVAB test at MEPS, and how your ASVAB test scores affect your Air Force job selection process. Everything you need to know about what Air Force recruiting is looking for. I also discuss the ASVAB test for dummies book and how my previous applicants said it really helped to study, and I cover how many times you can fail the ASVAB test while at MEPS.
Here's a link for all the AFSC's and their respective ASVAB test scores.

THANK YOU
I have a question if you can answer it.. what jobs are available as of now?
Oof. That’s tough. I’m not actually recruiting right now, so I don’t have access to the common jobs right now. I will say based off of my experience, you’ll always see maintenance jobs, security forces, linguist, some Intel and some computer jobs consistently. Anything else is gonna be case by case and luck of the draw.
@@Jodywithawhy ah, your spot on with the job selection. I got a 54 and was told Im not guaranteed a material management job.
i got a "99"
i have NO idea what it means...
edit: sorry. please help.
I got an 89. Joined the Navy as an Electronics Technician. Did 6 and got out. Now I’m a mechanical engineer. 😊
Did you get a degree? If so in what?
How you make a 89?
A real mechanical engineer ? Or a mechanic? Engineering is not your technician type work you did in the military, mechanical engineering requires a bachelors degree, the degree has 5 calculus classes and 4 physics classes etc, if you are an actual engineer, how did your job experience in the navy translate into engineering.? Would you recommend choosing electronics technician for engineering in the civilian world?
@@BuyBack93 like he said, he’s a mechanical engineer, not a mechanic… yes we know that the military experience is mostly technician and maintainable but it’s valuable experience towards mechanical engineering because they teach you mechanical/electrical principles. Use that knowledge and you can earn a bachelors easier than someone out of high school and then transition into a technical role. I’d definitely recommend going an engineering route in the civilian world if it is within your qualification. They get paid way more.
@@kyleflame1249 I was asking him, and I doubt they teach engineering principles. Mechanical/electrical principles don’t necessarily make it easier to get a bachelors in engineering, knowing how to swap out an engine or wire your house doesn’t mean acquiring the engineering degree is gonna be easier for you than a high school kid. And you wouldn’t transition into a technical role with an engineering degree. Just goes to show you truly don’t understand what an engineer does. Im asking him as a mechanical engineering student myself, who is also interested in the airforce. I’m asking him to share his experience coming out of the navy as a electrical technician and what the transition was like going into mechanical engineering. How much if any did his job in the navy help with getting his degree and locking in a job as a mechanical engineer. That’s what I’m asking, as I’m looking to do the same
Great video here. I must say to everyone watching not to give up on their dreams. I finally passed my ASVAB after 5 unsuccessful attempts due to my poor knowledge in math. Thanks to Mr Smith and his excellent tutoring skills, I'm officially on deck. Never lose hope guys.
Thanks man, I have trouble with math as well so I’m hopin I pass
What did you get on the English part ?
Mr smith earl windle smith? Aka earl the girl???
💯 agree i went from a 19 on my picat to a 73 on my 3rd time taking the asvab, I Took other tests from the evaluation to the 3 asvab test like 6 to 7 test in total increasing my score a little bit at a time, took me almost 7 months of non-stop hardcore studying no apps no entertainment. Y'all can do it all you gotta do is apply yourself!
Congratulations
My husband passed his TEST with 60 and English is not his first language . He focused on what he knows which is math . Never give up on your dreams .
I tell everyone to focus on math. It’s very detrimental to your overall score. Congrats to your husband. 🙌🏽🙌🏽
@@Jodywithawhy thank you so much 🥰
STUDY! Just do it. If a moron like me can get a 97, anybody can do well!
A 97. You ain’t no moron then. Lol. That’s a great score. You smart. 🤓
Scored an 81 on my asvab last week, looking at Flight Engineer, Loadmaster, and Photo journalist
Same here 💪💪
@@angellara4940 75 here :)
New sub..absolutely great information and well delivered. My son is joining up and I’m sending him all your videos to help him out..thank you for your effort!
Thanks so much. Hopefully I can help him.
I’m so thankful for this video this is honestly really good information
Thank you so much. Glad I could help. 💪🏽
This made me feel so much better I thought it was math questions but it is other things
Thanks so much
Just found your videos. So so helpful, thank you!
Thanks for watching. Glad I could help you. 💪🏽
Finally an actual recruiter giving good information based on facts and not personal FTA or DEPer opinion and experience. One thing I would mention s only your most recent ASVAB score counts. I had a tier 1 HS grad swear he didn’t really try on his HS ASVAB and only took it to get out of class. He had a high 40s score. I let him retake it even though the last s ore was valid. He bombed. Never again.
I’ve had that same thing happen. Lol. I stopped letting people retest after that.
Depends entirely on your score in the section of service your aiming for. The branches will want you for the highest scores you produce in your initial ASVAB (but retests & other considerations may be applied). Consider: Air National Guard & Air Force Reserve recruiters also. Best is active duty in an AF Reserve unit or an Air Nat'l Guard unit. 😃
The waiting until your “preferred” job is a myth. My recruiter said after my “ship by date” that I don’t have a choice for what I want but any job offer before I can decline unless I want it. Like you said it may vary though
Thank you sir, I've been thinking of enlisting and taking this test in the future of course. One step at a time for me but this is some great information.
Hope I can help. Good luck dude. Is it “The Dude” like Big Lebowski “Dude”?? I love that movie.
@@Jodywithawhy Right on, man! Keeps my positive vibrations in check thinking about the movie haha, good catch. I've been browsing your other videos and they are SUPER helpful, thanks again!
Love the vids! Keep em coming!
Thanks for the support. And I definitely will. 🙌🏽
Thanks for this video! I’m taking the ASVAB and getting my medical done on Monday and Tuesday of next week. I’m a bit nervous, but I think I’ll be fine. Keeping my fingers crossed. I’ve been using Grammar Hero and ASVAB for dummies App.
Good luck. You got this. 💪🏽💪🏽🙌🏽
Just scored an 83 on my third test and I'm off to MEPS next week! Hope I can lock in the spot for my job for the beginning of 2022.
Ayeee. Good job. Good luck throughout the process. 🤙🏽🤙🏽
What job did you want and what job did you get?
Got a 94 after studying with the Kaplan’s guide for a few weeks. Definitely opened some doors regarding job selection.
I always heard the Kaplan was like studying for a college exam. Great job on the score. That’s an extremely high score. 🤙🏽
How was the asvab? Taking it tomorrow...
@@dipidu5701 It was pretty fair. Make sure you really study word knowledge and math. Good luck!
@@dipidu5701 howd you do?
I also used the Kaplan book and came out with a 98 😅 #90sclub
This was the most helpful video on this platform
Thx man, love your vids. Very helpful
No problem. Thanks for watching
Coo the playlist is something my recruiter has helped me with.
When I got recruited in the beginning of 2020 I had to sign paperwork stating that once one of my jobs came available I had to take the one available. If I didn’t take one of the 15 listed I would be removed from the DEP. I’d agree and say waiting for a job isn’t a thing. Great content!
Thank you for the heads up.
No prob. Thanks for watching. 💪🏽💪🏽
I was able to choose my job before going to meps. I did have to wait 7 months for it to come up. I wanted anythign in the IT field, or anything that was flight staff. Scored 94 on the ASVAB. Once the 7 month wait for the job to open up came along, then I went to MEPS. When we hit Week 5 in Basic I got the same IT job that we talked about at the recruiters office.
That was 1994. I did my one tour and got out. I'm still in the IT field now. Making good money and living my life. Still if I had it to do again. I would porbably have stayed active for longer and made a career of it. The IT field went up and down through the 2000's. It wasn't always great.
Anyone having trouble with the asvab
Look up Mr.Andy's asvab class its been helping people study and pass the asvab.
I’m just here to hit the thumbs up.
thank you meeting my air force recruiter this Monday. can't wait to join the air force
Ayeee. Good luck on the journey. 🙌🏽
Awesome channel. You gained a subscriber
Thanks so much. Means a lot.
Great information!
Thank you so much.
Thanks for posting this @JodywithaWhy
Thanks you so much for the info
No problem. Thanks for watching. 🤙🏽
Took the exam for fun on my senior year and got a 90 AFQT, now I’m kind of intrigued of what I can do with that score :)
I just got a 25 on my AFQT practice test, I’m about to lock in on the info you provided…. 2 weeks and I’m gonna smoke that test AIM HIGH
Following up: did you end up doing better on the asvab?
This helped me out alot, taking the ASVAB today. Nervous but this video and what my recruiters have told me, I have faith that I’ll do fine and with future endeavors.
Good luck bro, hope you got it.
Update bro?
bro can you give me a update on your life??
Update on how you doing ?
Passing the ASVAB is when you study hard,if you can't study or you don't have time for your studies I'd advise you get yourself help like Captain Thomas
My recruiter here in Myrtle beach has brought me to your channel and I’m very excited to see where my career is heading with joining the Air Force from watching your videos alone. Very informational and very convincing as well to push for more. Only question I have is about requesting a quick ship, and that’s what is the recruiter process to getting an applicant through to deploying sooner than later? Let me know if there is a video for that so I can watch it because I’m looking to quick ship so I can get started ASAP
Hey. Thanks for watching. I wonder if I know your recruiter. 🧐 Quick ship basically means you’re willing to do any job. There are people who are leaving to basic all the time and sometimes they can’t leave. They may have gotten hurt or sick or in trouble, and now their job becomes available. If it does, and you’ve informed your recruiter you wanna quick ship, they will call you ASAP upon hearing someone couldn’t leave. They’re also expecting you to take the job that is available. So it has its pros and cons.
Brooks or Merchant? Same here bro
Merchant is my friend for about the last 13 years. We were in Hurlburt field together. He knows me well. Tell him I said what’s up. 🤙🏽
@@Jodywithawhy yes sir! I take my asvab on the 26th and my WK isn’t good. Been using Fernando Cardona on the math sections and he’s been helping me a lot. If I do good on MK AR and PC at least do I still have a shot of passing?
You’ll have a good shot if you’re solid on those areas. But if you’re just barely doing well on those sections, then you might struggle on the entire test. I made another video which has links for you to take practice tests at home to get a gauge on where you’re at. If that’s not enough, ask Merchant to hook you up with the PICAT test. ruclips.net/video/RzH1gZ4GQIA/видео.html
Awesome info! I got a 68 general and 71 electrical. I’m signing client systems air national guard soon.
Good job. You crushed it. Client systems is a great job too. 🙌🏽🙌🏽
make sure you study for security plus if you make it into client systems most people get reclassed during that test since its stressfull
how often would you say you see Client Systems as an available job? and what is the highest possible score for the electrical section if a good score is 70?
There’s only one job that requires higher than a 70 electrical, and it’s scientific applications specialist. I believe it requires both an 85 electrical and 88 mechanical.
Client systems is pretty common, but it’s also highly demanded. So it goes fast. I would recommend looking into all the AFSC’s that start with a 3D. I hope that helps.
@@Jodywithawhy when you mention its highly demanded, do you mean its highly demanded by the air force or as in a lot of recruits ask for that job?
I mean a lot of recruits ask for that job.
My recruiter for the Air Force seemed quite eager when I asked about the ASVAB. However, I also felt rushed during our conversation, and his response made it sound like he could care less about what job I end up with, as long as he gets me shipped out. He seemed pretty relaxed about it, saying he'd be happy as long as that happened.
I scored a 98 but back in the day didn't matter. They just tried to put you in any old job. They asked me what part of a plane I wanted to work on. I sat at MEPS for 2 weeks till they let me sign up for the job I wanted. I didn't have to join.
I remember back in 1981 when I went to BMT and I think it was either day 2 or 3 I was approached by a recruiter that wanted me to change my career field. Back then he was talking about a new career field that I would be Computer Software Technician.
I think we now call that career computer programming.
@@Jodywithawhy and just to think I could have been doing that instead
One of the original pioneers. That’s wild to think about.
I just took the ASVAB on Tuesday, 4/13. I scored a 70!
Ayeeee. That’s a great score. Good job bro. 🤙🏽
Broo just took it 2 weeks ago and got the same score!
Ayeee. Y’all winning 💪🏽
@@hectorortiz5710 hell yeah bro!
Guys, please send me the material to study, I wanna make this happen too,
Good info for the newbies. I entered the AF in 1975. I scored 95 in electronics and mechanics. I had a guaranteed job (Analog Flight Simulator Specialist). However, my job choice was not available at the time so the recruiter put me in the Delayed Enlistment Program for 3 months. That way, my 8-month long tech school (Chanute) would be starting right after I graduated from basic training in Lackland. It all worked out very well. No regrets! The USAF was the right choice at the right time.
Great stuff, thanks Jody. Do you know what score you need to get into healthcare related jobs like diagnostic imaging? Also, can you make a video with tips for people age 34 and up who want to join the Air Force please? Appreciate it man!
Most every medical requires a general score of 44. There are other medical careers that have higher asvab scores, but the bulk of them are a general 44.
As far as making a video for older applicants, I think I can put something together. Just will have to give me some time. 💪🏽💪🏽
I was a Chinese cryptologic linguist in the Navy 30 years ago, and spent my career attached to an Air Force unit in Korea; my daughter is currently a Chinese cryptologic linguist in the Air Force. The Chinese Basic Course at the Defense Language Institute (DLI) is now 63 weeks of instruction. It does work out to spending two full years in training before day one of actual work as a cryptologic linguist, but a year and a half of it is spent at the Presidio of Monterey on California's Central Coast - one of the most beautiful places on Earth. The course is extremely academically challenging (lots of people fail and have to choose another job) but is accredited at 45 semester hours of college credit. A high school graduate who goes to DLI can very easily achieve an associate's degree by the time she leaves DLI, and transfer that credit to a university near her eventual duty station. Off-duty education and tuition assistance means she can complete a bachelor's degree during her first enlistment. I did 30 years ago, and used my GI Bill to go to law school.
It really is the best job in the world, and the people I served with were the brightest and coolest people in the Air Force (and the Navy!).
The normal job selection advice is not applicable to the cryptologic linguist job. If you want to be a cryptologic linguist and your ASVAB and Defense Language Aptitude Battery (DLAB) qualify you to go to DLI, and you don't have a criminal record or personal issues which obviously disqualify you for the security clearance, you WILL go to DLI. It's very hard for the services to find qualified candidates.
I quite literally just decided on this job. I love languages of all kinds, love learning them and have experience practicing and learning them. I hope I will make it.
@@haleyl.248 - Do you have any college credit before joining? I have some good news: The Defense Language Institute is an accredited university granting Associate of Arts and - new this year - Bachelor of Arts degrees in foreign languages. Your military service as a cryptologic linguist can earn you, without cost, a bachelor's degree in your target language. That's the best deal around.
There is a rub: You must complete both the DLI Basic Course and either the DLI Intermediate or Advanced Course in the target language. Intermediate and Advanced are ordinarily available after your first duty station or in your second enlistment. Basic is accredited at 45 hours for most languages, and Advanced, at least, at 33 hours.
General education requirements for the associate's degree are 18 hours, which you can satisfy with transfer credit from work you've already done, new classes at a community college or university, Advanced Placement, or DANTES/CLEP examinations available free at the education center on base.
If you enter as a high school graduate with no AP credits, and no college, Basic and Intermediate/Advanced plus some CLEP exams can put you just 24 credit hours away from a bachelor's degree. You can complete 24 hours through off-duty education during your enlistment easy, especially with tuition assistance paying the freight for your classes.
Now, I hate to do this to Jody, who is after all an Air Force recruiter, but I have to point out that the other services send students to DLI too. The Navy (and, I suppose, the Army, but geez - it's the Army) is offering enlistment bonuses up to $50,000 if you're shipping soon. You owe it to yourself to understand the bonuses on offer for linguists in all the services, and compare that also to lifestyle. Ultimately, it's pretty much the same because we all end up at the same four bases together.
I hope you will make it too, Haley. Thank you for being willing to stand the watch.
There’s all kinds of test math in shorthand words and meanings you have to know everything and you’re timed on the test I’m glad I passed a 98% on it I have a very very high IQ I don’t forget things
I love your videos 💯
Thank you so much. Means a lot!!!🙌🏽
The overall scores haven't changed a bit from the 80's. The lowest score on the ASVB that I received was a 90. What helped me back in the day was my middle school guidance counselor in the 8th grade. Before entering high school, I had to fill out a career worksheet. I put down that I wanted to serve in the military. My guidance counselor gave me study materials for the ASVAB which at the time wasn't all that very much. What I did was break it down by each individual test and went from there. I made my guidance counselor very happy with my result. At the end of my middle school days my guidance counselor gave me a sample test that most or all recruiters give to potential applicants. I made him a very happy man that day, and he said the only thing that standing in my way to join the military was four years of high school. Aim High!!!
I remember when I was 18 years old I passed a 98% on the Asvap testing the recruiter came to my apartment in Phoenix Arizona my heart wanted to go to the Air Force Luke Air Force Base because I love flying anyways I’m Native American and Cherokee and Blackfoot Indian Brian Richards you could look me up under the military under listing for Air Force I love the United States I would do whatever cost to protect the United States I love my country I would die for my country in a heartbeat
Not sure if you’ll see this but I’m planning on going to the service I’m 19 and waiting on my braces to come out I took the practice and scored and 53 on my first attempt. I’ve been watching your videos and I’ve enjoyed your content
Aye. Congrats. That’s a good score. God luck on the rest of the process and with the braces. 🙌🏽🙌🏽
i got a 68 AFQT!!!
I lost 40 pounds to try to apply for air guard. I trying to apply for the guard as I have a full time job in information technology as a IT systems analyst. I’m trying to get in any cybersecurity related field. I take the asvab in a few days. I guess if I don’t get the score I want I’ll try again.
40 lbs. 😲😲😲. Good job. I bet that feels good to finally reach the goal. Good luck on the ASVAB. You got this. 💪🏽💪🏽
☝🏻Hindsight being 20/20, 30+ years ago I took the ASVAB after I graduated from college and am now curious all these years later what opportunities have changed🤔
The asvab for dummies is really good it helps
Other Questions if i live in Florida it’s possible to find a job on my area where i live like in base not too fare my house as a AirForce Reserve?
Thank you
Hi everyone! I took the ASVAB twice already. First time i took the PICAT & made a 49, went to verify my test TWO WEEKS later & I failed because I got rolled into the real ASVAB. I passed the second time with AFQT 33 & a pretty good score in Admin. Is that a good enough score to get my foot in the door because I’m pretty scared that I would have to take it a third time. I really don’t want to😭
Awesome video, can you make a video on Army to Air Force Active Duty or prior enlisted to Air Force
Gimme some time. I can do it, just might take me awhile. 💪🏽
@@Jodywithawhy There’s very limited info on that so it would be perfect. You got my support!
Thank god I found this video😭
Great video. Enjoy your life.
I joined the Airforce after high school I failed it the first time i took it got the asvab book studied it real hard and eventually I passed joined the Airforce stayed for 8 years got out and now receive 100 percent disability I’m 35 and I don’t have to work if I don’t want to and I don’t consider myself to be that smart you just really have to work hard and study to get the results you want
I’m 20 and took my asvab about 2 months ago. I didn’t study at all for it since it was during my midterm week for college so I devoted my time to that instead. I also knew I didn’t want any mechanical or electrical jobs so I purposely didn’t try in every section that wasn’t arithmetic reasoning, Word knowledge, or paragraph comprehension since those are the ones I cared about for medical jobs. I wouldn’t say I guessed on all the other sections but I definitely didn’t take my time and didn’t care if I got a lot of questions wrong. I regret doing this since I know I could’ve gotten a much higher score if I tried and took my time.
Regardless I still did fine I think.
ASVAB OVERALL SCORE - 78
My line scores are - M: 77 A: 65 G: 88 E: 76
I don’t know why I didn’t do so well on the administrative side since I would assume that’s the easiest but I guess that plays into not thinking about the questions and quickly just choosing whatever answer felt right at the time
I go back to MEPS tomorrow morning to swear in, I’m so excited. Can’t wait to start looking through the jobs that are available and that I qualify for 🙏
You crushed it. Even on mechanical and electrical. Lol. Good job and good luck tomorrow. 💪🏽💪🏽
@@Jodywithawhy Thank you man, I been watching so many of your videos recently. They are all so helpful and well put together. You are an amazing recruiter and I’ll be sure to tell my recruiter here in Fremont (North California Bay Area) all about you. His name is Staff Sergeant Brady. This is his Instagram if you want to check him out airforcerecruitingfremont
He looks very familiar. Did he recently just get there?? If he did, then I probably saw him around at the recruiting schoolhouse. Didn’t teach him, but might’ve saw him around. Thanks for watching man. Glad I could help you.
@@Jodywithawhy He started recruiting here in late 2019 going into early 2020 I believe. So a little over a year. If you guys crossed paths in the past that’s insane but so cool because it really shows what a small and connected world we live in 😄
Keep up the amazing content Sergeant Jody, I can’t wait to watch more 💪🏼
Keep doing your thing bro I swear the last active recruiter who tried to do youtube quit on me 😂😂
I’m trying. It’s easier for me being at the schoolhouse to do this. If I was out recruiting I don’t where I would’ve found the time to do this. Lol.
Aye. Who was that?? The recruiter who did RUclips??
Your videos got a lot more effort but after you said you got more time it made sense
Thank you. I’ve actually seen his videos before. I didn’t realize he stopped. I dont personally know him, but he was good.
Do you know anything about being a Linguist for the AF? I’m really considering so it, but cyber security just makes so much more sense for me. In fact I was gonna do CYSEC in the Marines, but my recruiter fumbled around so I left DEP. I’m super interested in learning languages, but my recruiter indirectly made it sound like nobody wanted it.
It’s a good job, just hard to qualify for. You have to get a 72 on the ASVAB in order to take the DLAB. If you pass the DLAB, you’ll get a linguist job.
Thank you Sir for the informations it’s helps a lot... I’m 33 years old married, and I’m going to join active duty soon. Go Air Force 🙏🏻🙏🏻✈️✈️
That’s awesome. Glad I could help. Good luck on your journey. 💪🏽💪🏽
Same here joining the Air Force at 33 years old and taking the ASVAB next week.
Good luck to you too. 💪🏽💪🏽
33 and currently doing my research! Any tips?
@@kymberlic.9640 I’m 34 just got thru MEPS I’m in DEP now just go for it. I waited way too long to be honest I been thinking of going in since I was 20.
For the AF Reserve you mentioned how there’s a list of jobs that are available for you to choose. Does your score determine if you can pick that job or you just pick whichever one?
You can pick what you qualify for and what’s available. Asvab and physical determine what you’re qualified for. I made this video which can give you more info. ruclips.net/video/XsFP6ovRwCM/видео.html
Hmm had i known that my 98 on the ASVAB would have been weighed in the AF i might have considered it more... Did an option 19 in the Army instead. Ce la freaking vie.
I’d like to do something administrative like more paperwork than combat lol. I’m studying right now for the ASVAB. Whats the minimum score I should aim for on this test? I was thinking at least a 45-50? Please reply. Thank you sir!
I scored a 70 and qualified for every job except one on the enlisted side M:84, A:65, G:74, E:77
Great job. I’m assuming the one is Scientific Applications Specialist. 😩. That one is super hard to qualify for. You still crushed it. 💪🏽🤓
Same for me got a 76 and didn't study once
85 lol studied a single day
@@noahholmes287 nice, that test is so simple idk how some people get 30s lmao
What job did you not qualify for?
My top pick job is Security Forces
Don't take a job you don't want as you will not be happy and cross-training is not guaranteed. I do like what Jody says about only choosing jobs you will like doing.
What score do you need for linguistics?
Sir, so it’s basically my recruiter supervisor pick the job and then my recruiter notify me about that certain job he picked based off my job list.
Yep. Basically. You make the list. Once that list is made, the recruiters supervision is looking at the list to see what they can match you to. Then they notify your recruiter and after that your recruiter notifies you. I hope this helps.
Ok thank you sir!
If someone is a single parent but has a care plan in place and goes reserve are they able to go active duty? If so, how long after can they change over?
Also, when signing the contract is it a open contract or do you know right then what job you’re going to? Or you only know the job after basic training?
Great video, I want to do cyber security. How do I study for the seperate electric test tgat suposidly only 10% qualify at?
I got 79 in my junior year of high school with my highest score being in word knowledge(66) and my lowest in auto shop(44). I’m thinking of retaking it this year to broaden my career choices, any tips on improving mechanical/ electric knowledge?
No science questions for the airforce asvab? thank you for the video btw
Yes there are science questions. The general science questions are gonna affect how you score on the electrical and mechanical portion of the ASVAB.
The ASVAB is the same for all branches. There is no difference in the test. The Air Force just interprets the Line Scores differently than other branches.
Short answer....no....but it damn sure helps and influences people's perception of you. Outside of the AFQT score, your line scores will boost your profile and everyone from your recruiter to your future senior NCO will offer you things they don't normally do for most. They try groom you for leadership.
What would I need to score to qualify for Special Missions Aviator or ISR?
Hey JodywithaWhy
I'm 32, married with 2 kids, and I've been seriously considering joining the Air Force; however, my career gold is to become an architect. Whats the minimum score to qualify for a job in this field?
Ps. Your videos are awesome and very informative. Thanks alot
Won’t be a architect as a enlisted person officers do that
Please help.me with the preparatory book for the ASVAB
how do you calculate your score if you're doing practice tests via the ASVAB for dummies books or a paper version?
How common is material management? I know that one is both administrative and general. That job would be my first choice. Scored 68 A and 51 G
Your score is good to go for that job bro !
What’s a good score to be a pilot?
Can someone commission if that had a past ovwi charge bit not convicted?
Just got my AFSC yesterday. My first 2 picks were available, but they pressured me to take my #5 pick instead. I score well on the ASVAB and they said they wanted to take advantage of that and give me the job that fewer people qualify for. I ship out in March to be a cryptologic language analyst
What date in March are you going

Hey Mr.Jody, I’m looking to joining the Air Force this upcoming March. But, I’m hesitate on taking the ASVAB. Do all the sections on the ASVAB affect your overall score ? Or are their only two sections I should be concerned with to at least get a decent job which is General & Administrative ?
What do you need to score to become a Air Force pilot?
You need a bachelors degree, and you need to take an AFOQT which is a different test from the asvab.
Went to AF recruiter office with only 35 asvab score , I wanted to do security forces they said they would work with me. After 5 months of waiting to get process they just told me I need to retake the asvab. Super upset
If it’s ok to ask , what is the ASVAB score for fire protection please and thank you sir .
Last I knew it is a 38 in the general section. But I think I heard it changed. I could be wrong. Get with a recruiter and see.
My overall ASVAB score was 53. But a few of my line scores were all in the 90’s - electrical, mechanical, and clerical - I’m not sure if I should retake the ASVAB or if this is good enough for the Air Force.
Lol same bro, you should be good for the Air Force but im trying to see if I can do any better and you should too
How hard is the test in terms of mathematics? I'm fairly smart with most other subjects, but math... I have a tough relationship with math. I hate anything outside of basic arithmetic with all my heart
It’s high school level math and arithmetic. If you don’t remember all the formulas from algebra and geometry, it could be a little difficult. So I’d recommend brushing up on your math if you don’t remember that stuff.
Quick question, I took what the recruiter called a "FICAT" about a week ago and scored an 83 AFQT with a 121 gt score. I then came back a few days later and took the PICAT, and scored an 80 AFQT and a 118 gt. The only medical job available is a 68w. Should I wait for a 68p or a 68c MOS to open up to enlist?
Should I start talking to an air force recruiter at the summer of my 11th grade? Or at the summer of my 12th grade?
I’m struggling with math while studying for the ASVAB and it’s very discouraging. It’s sooo hard not even funny. When I took the practice ASVAB at the recruiter I made like a 18 and it didn’t even let me finish it
What does the G score consist of for the Air Force? Not just the AFQT specifically the G score. I need a G score of 55 for the job I want.
Question what if I want to do Air Force Sr Special recon how much do I have to score on the asvab?
So for me to have a higher score on the general area I just need to have a high AFQT?
I would like to be a photographer in the AF reserves down in Miami. I think it’s now called broadcast journalism/photography. What score should I aim for? I researched a bit and it changed from a 44 to a 72 in General?! Is that true? How hard would that be? Is this job rare to get? Any extra info would be greatly appreciated. PLEASE REPLY!
Hey Jody. Are you able to give me information on joining the Air Force reserves doing the office route. Currently in nursing school and will be working on getting my bachelors. Do I still have to take the asvab? If not what process would I have to go through to join as a nurse. Please and thank you. 😊
AFROTC and OTS you will take the AFOQT not the ASVAB
Hey Jodi is there a test that you have to take before taking the ASVAB?
