- So I went to MEPS yesterday and took the ASVAB. I did a lot better than I thought I would. I'm pretty sure I was the oldest dude there. Anyone else considering the military that's over 35? Instagram = erikminamihata
Here's the book I used

Thanks again for watching and interacting. I really do appreciate it. I'm going to start doing going live ~2 times a week to answer specific test questions. Hopefully this will help out even more. The goal here really is to have everyone do as well as possible. Subscribe if you'd like this live help. Thanks!
Erik I'm trying to get into the marine's and have the book but the math and word knowledge is what gets me at the end of the practice test
Right on. Yeah those were definitely the hardest sections for me. Did you see my word knowledge vid? I'll definitely be going live to talk about the math stuff. When do you plan on taking the test? Maybe I can help out!
Erik a bro is the asvab for dummies a good book
It's seems OK. The only reason why I didn't get that book was because it looked like there was too much information crammed onto each page haha. I have a small brain so I went with the book that was a little more simplified. But that's just me though...might be different for other people. Take a look at the pages at the library and see which one works best for you. Keep me updated!
Erik a bro please help me out what books where mpre helpful for you to pass the test please bro
I'm 25, and I'm a junior college drop out... I had to leave school and start to work... Because bills..... I told my self "I don't want to be 40 years old and say what if I had joined the army", so I made the decision to join. I don't think i've ever been more excited/nervous! I took my ASVAB yesterday, and I scored a 92. I went with being a 74D (CBRN). I ship out in October.
92?!?! Thats awesome, bro! Congrats!!! You're making all the right decisions man. We're on the same boat. Didn't want to turn 40 and realize that my chance to serve completely passed. And yeah, between you and me..i'm nervous AF hahaha. But yeah, congrats on crushing the ASVAB! Keep in contact bro! Let me know how BCT is!
I was supposed to go to get sworn in on Monday, but thanks to this hurricane Steve Harvey.. Everything is being delayed. I don't think I'm going to be leaving in October anymore..
Do you remember any questions from the asvab
Are you in Texas? Houston?
Marco Garcia best wishes brother
Passed my MEPS and ASVAB (72 overall) today. You had some good tips thank you. I am 36. No ship date yet.
Right on! Congrats!!
@@erikminamihata hey how did it go?
I had a question on the fitness standards in bmt. Are they higher in bmt for us older guys. I know they are higher out of bmt but my UTA guys were telling me in bmt age doesnt matter its all the same passing or fail score guidelines.
wow, you're 38?! you could pass for your late 20's
HAHA! I know, it's scary...I can't believe how fast time is flying by :/ lol!
Erik I thought you was 24 lol.
HAHA, I wish!
Ste Lo I swear everyone in the army looks mad young for no reason
I was going to join the Air Force, went and took my test. I scored 42 on the ASVAB. Running on three hours of sleep because I kept myself awake from stressing about the test, had a painfully empty hungry stomach and was anxious through the whole thing. I screwed myself.. big time.
Hey Tim, It's all good. Schedule a retest. In the meantime, study! Now you know what you need to do! I think you have 3 shots at it!
How’s it go?
I join the ARMY,at 18.Now I am 28. I just made SSG E-6 3 months ago.I am 19D,and stationed at Fort Bragg,NC.I am happy to see you are going in the Military,I wish you all the best.
Thanks for the comment and support, SSG! Congrats on the promotion!
I scored a 93. Thank you for your videos. I'm 34 I do have a finance degree
Legit! Nice work and no worries! I hope they helped. Keep me updated on your progress! That's awesome. Congrats!
You look very young for your age
I'm 37 and I'm joining soon
You seem like the only one out there joining the military after 35 yo you gave me hope 😀
Hope to see more video
Thanks, Big Mo! Better late than never! How far are you into the process? What made you start thinking about the military now? Keep me posted!
Erik thank for your replay , I took the ASVAB and did the meps for the Air force reserve back in 2014
I was 33 yo at that time went to the assigned base every month and took a job and was ready to ship for basic training till I heard that they are about to raise the age for active duty so I resigned ( simply wrote a letter to my recruiter explaining why I should be dismissed) of
Course he helped choose the words those don't hurt my credibility and I was out
The hustle began when I had to contact an active duty recruiter it was very obvious to me that no one is willing to work with me since I have already taken the ASVAB and been to the MEPS or I could be wrong , anyway after a six month and this was in 2015 i found who is willing to work with me if I would retest because my job is not available for the moment was (diagnostic imaging) since I'm not a citizen my options were limited so we started talking about mechanics! Anyway he needed a dismissal letter from Westover MA ( my base ) to schedule me for the second time they said I must contact my recruiter he was retired so wrote him a letter asking him gratefully to help me he did and this took a while to get the letter at that time I was loosing my desire and things were getting twisted family and jobs etc so put the idea to rest and started driving trucks but every now and then I always think of my self as an Air force man so now I'm will to go back since it's more than two years I have to take ASVAB again and I'm scheduled for Late Jan 2018
Am I the only one that noticed how many times he said “ um” lol. GREAT VIDEO THOUGH! love the content.
Ugh, I know!! I suck!! LOL!!! I gotta work on that. Thanks for checkin out the vid! You joining the Air Force too?
Having Mr Logan as my tutor has always been my pleasure. He gave me moral and material support especially in maths. Not only that, Mr Logan has the key to succeeding the ASVAB and he has the solutions to your questions. I have been in the Navy now for a year and is thanks to him.Since then, I Mr Logan have been helping people in any issue concerning passing the ASVAB with an excellent AFQT.
Your videos are great man! I take my ASVAB this coming Thursday (4/5) I’m about to be 32 and nervous since I’ve been out of school for so long. I’ve been studying and taking practice test non stop. The goal is to hit at least a 72 for the job I want. Your videos definitely give me confidence. Keep it up!
How'd it go?
I took the ASVAB recently and scored a 95 AFQT. If you have some vague remembrance of high school math, freshen up on that (FOIL, fractions, arithmetic). Grammar is pretty set-explanatory, so is vocabulary. Science is basic, might have 1 or 2 questions that you guess on. Don’t stress the mechanics/electronics too much (but a basic understanding of switches or pullies helps too). Above all, DONT STRESS YOURSELF OUT
Solid advice!
I've made the decision to enlist into the airforce myself at the age of 34, I just have to study up on the MK/AR, especially with the mos that i want, congrats on your future endeavors. I really miss out there in cali, I'm also going to subscribe to your channel. Peace bro
Awesome! You'll do great!
I am 35 almost 36. I did my asvab yesterday and thought I bummed it too but I got 86. So I m glad. I m just worried about BMT. I hope my age doesn’t work against me. I m excited
Good Job man. I just saw your channel today. I’m 33 and it’s been more than 5 years since I actually took a test. I studied using the ASVAB Mastery Mobile app on the iPhone and that got me through, I guess with only 2 weeks of studying. I was pretty much studying in between breaks from work, on my commute to/from work and when I get home. I got a 74/99, it could have been better if given more time. With my score, I was able to qualify for all the jobs except for the 91S00 which require 88 Mechanical and 85 on Electrical. Anyway good luck on your journey.
Thanks, Christian! Those scores are LEGIT! Which jobs are you going for? Keep me updated!
Congrats on your enlistment! Wish you the best. I myself is a bit older than most of the other recruits I've met (29). I joined the Army.
Love your story man, good luck to you!
Thank you!!!
Thanks for the video Erik , and good for you ! I'm 27 looking to enlist into the AF I'm also not the greatest in math, but I bought the asvab book and have a friend helping me with the math part. Gonna try my best to score my highest. But damn 70 isn't bad! Good luck !
For sure, Cindy! Math has always been pretty gnarly for me haha. Sounds like you're going to do really well! Keep me updated! Which jobs are you looking to get? Going in this year?
Thanks, and I will! Im interested in anything in the health field. Maybe diagnostic imaging. I'm still so indecisive and it depends on my ASVAB SCORES as well. Plan on taking the ASVAB in October so well see wether or not Im eligible on enlisting this year or next. Keep you posted, and keep up the good job on your channel
Right on! Yeah definitely a good route to go. Diagnostic Imaging would be awesome...especially once you get into CT and MRI. That was actually my major many many....many years ago haha. You'll do awesome. Thanks for the support!
Hey Erik!
Congrats on your achievements. Cant wait for you to share you experiences in the United States Air Force! Age is just a number. I'm sure you will fly through Boot camp with some amazing experiences.
Thanks, Johnny! You made me want to do it! HAHA
Damn bro...i thought u were in your 20's!!! Lol I took the practice test the other day and realized I was smarter in high school apparently cuz I passed in the 90's in 2002. Lol I'm 33 going on 34 and I'm happy to find your video. Let's me know I'm not crazy for waiting this long in life to join
Hey thanks, Bro! HAHA, I actually still get carded at the liquor store haha. I hear you on that one, bro. I basically forgot everything I learned in high school and college lol!! But yeah, you're definitely not crazy. I think it's good in a way because we get to think about branches and job picks a little more deeply. You know what I mean? BTW, which branch are you thinking of joining? Keep me updated!
Thanks for the tip man! I know this is an old video, but I'm joining the AF at 30 fingers cross.
Awesome bro! 30 years old is a great age. I've been in for 3 years now and still have no regrets. You'll definitely enjoy your time in. Keep me updated with your progress!
@@erikminamihata Yeah of course! I’m taking my ASVAB and MEPS Next week, wish me luck lol
Congrats man! And thanks for the upload I'm definitely buying this book.
Thanks, Karah! It definitely helped a lot! When are you taking your test? Which branch you going for?
Next Friday and Air Force
karah daniel hell yea!! Best of luck!! Looking forward to hear how you did. Keep me updated!
I’m thinking about joining because idk what else to do, I know that sounds pretty sad but I’m 27 and I feel like I’m starting over.
All good! Honestly, the Air Force is great. It's a great way to get paid job training and see the world. Also, there's nothing wrong with starting over. Starting over is my middle name hahah.
Dude you did awesome!! I'm 21 and i'm currently trying to join the Marine's. I've tested 4 time's. Do you have any good study tips and how did you study for the asvab? I made a 25 on my last test and i need a 32... If you can make a video on studying that would be great, Thank you!! And congrats on passing!!
Thanks! I do, I'm studying for a new exam so I'll post vids as I go through each section. It's similar to the ASVAB. You can do it!!! When do you plan on taking it again?
Dude went to meps and killed the asvab made a 68 afqt and electronics made an 81!! I failed the depth perception and have to go back another time and see an eye consult for 2 eye surgeries I had a while back. My vision is correctable to 20/20 and my prescription isn't extremely high either. I'm a little nervous but my recruiter said don't stress it.
Dang, they sent you back for that? were you going for boom operator? Those are some awesome scores. Sounds like you should be good to go though. I was thinking I'd get DQ'd for my wrist but everything turned out alright. Keep me updated bro!
No I wasn't going for boom operator, just electrician or hvac and those don't require depth perception. My recruiter told me not to sweat the consult and said I can to the dep meetings. He's pretty confident everything will turn out fine so...it's a waiting game until I get a date for my consult but at least in the meantime I can do these dep meetings
you'll be fine, i also had to have a consult for my eyes. since my prescription was really high they said they wanted to make sure my eyes were healthy and had no diseases. they're gonna send you to get a medical eye exam. dilation, vision all that good stuff. i have astigmatism but they said everything checked out fine.
handymannapa thanks man eased my worries :)
No problem Benjamin, I leave for boot camp on Oct 2, good luck on your enlistment!
I'm retaking mines. I got 34 on my first try and that's the book I'm going to start using seems better than the Kaplan lol good luck with everything :)
Thanks, Olivia! Good luck! You'll do great. That book I used really helped a lot. It came with a bunch of practice tests that were basically the same questions as whats on the ASVAB. Let me know if you need any pointers!
I thought 34 is passing
Clashing Demensions it is for certain branches of the military. But if you want a high variety of GOOD jobs to choose from then try to make a high score. High expectations bruh because believe or not but this job MIGHT determine what you will be doing in your years in the military and after.
I did the ASVAB today and got a 57 on it. I'm 27 and I didn't really do any studying besides arithmetic. I aced every section besides word comprehension and some of the math. I'm thinking about doing some form of mechanics in the army so my score fits me perfectly for what I want.
Nice work! Congrats! Are you going back for the physical? Army is legit!
Erik I'm going in Thursday for the physical side. Pretty excited about it.
There are many components to passing the military exam. One resource I found that succeeds in merging these is the Kevins Exam Passer (google it if you're interested) without a doubt the no.1 blueprint that I have ever seen. Check out all the great information .
Pedro Alb thanks man

Eric can you please help me out in currently studying for the ASVAB and interested in a Electrical job. How did you study for science part did you just study the Asvab for dummies
Hey Rodriguez, for that part I used the book and online tests. The electrical section was basically the exact same thing as on the test. Just practice each question over and over again even if you get them correct.
Dude great video btw and ink. I'm 21 and fixing to join the Marines, I've been reading comments and I think ima start studying my ass off. XD
Thanks! Yea definitely put some study time in. It will pay off in the long run. Super legit of you to work on becoming a Marine! That's awesome. Keep me updated on your progress. When do you plan on taking the test?
@@erikminamihata Thanks for the encouragement bro! An I'm enlisting around my bd which is Dec 2nd, so I'm sure I'll be taking it in another month or so plenty of time to study. I'll try to remember to let you know what I scored and my ship date
I'm 26 years old and I feel old, I watched your video and felt like a sweet 16 years old :) thanks for the video, it gives me motivation :).
HAHA, right on Jay. I showed my wife your comment...she LOL'd hahah. Which branch are you going for?
Got a 45. Not sure if that's supposed to be seen as an awful trash score or if it's considered somewhat average cuz it's only 5 points from 50. I could've done better nonetheless but it is what it is. Great video 👍
Take it again! Shoot for the score you want!
Hey congrats man. I'm currently in dep and just turned 39. Going in active duty.
Hey that's awesome! Which AFSC's are you waiting on? I'm doing my physical next weds so I'm right behind you. Congrats!! Please keep me updated on your progress!
Hey, Erik! I'm 36, I took the ASVAB, last year, in April. I'm Reserve, Administration, I head to BMT on 1/9/18.
Hey Shannon! That's awesome! Hey, maybe we'll be at BMT the same time?! How awesome would that be. Are you nervous?
Erik, that'd be swell. Much more moderate temperatures, no major holidays missed. Fingers crossed for you, sir!
Likewise! Keep me updated on your progress!!
high school senior , took a practice test and got a 63 , will be taking my actual test friday ! Super stoked!
Nice! Sounds like you're going to do awesome. Remember, you can always retake it if you don't get the score you want. Which branch are you going for? keep me updated!
Erik air force and will do!
Erik just finished an hour ago and scored a 60 !
Hell yeah, CONGRATS, Bro!!! Nice work! Have you thought of which jobs you'll be shooting for? You'll have some pretty awesome picks in there. That's awesome!
Erik thank you! And im gonna do more research and I think i might Join the navy and go for engineering or something of that sort
Hey man I sworn in!!! All I gotta do is pick a job and get my ship date. Eye consult went great !! :)
Legit! Awesome bro! So you had nothin to worry about. That's great! What are you going to pick?
Hoping for hvac, electrical systems, or structural. Those are my top 3 so far. Still looking at my jobs I qualified for to see if any others peek my interest
Nice bro! You'll get some sick training from any of those for sure
Eric first off thank you for your vids, I'm trying to enlist I'm 32 soon. out of all the vids I watch your such a humble guy with vibrant good intentions , I appreciate you brother, I know your probably getting alot of questions but if you wouldn't mind would I be able to have your contact details I have a few concerns one being asvab and being an older recruit. thank you man and I wish you the best of luck in all your endeavors.
Hey thanks, Angelo! You can contact me at irezumierik@gmail.com. Talk soon! Thanks for checking out the vids!
i'm operational air force but i joined when i was 33 had a birthday in BMT and now this Sunday i'll be 35. I'm also active duty. Being older in the air force has it's perks ESPECIALLY when you get to operational because a lot of the SNCOs and NCOs are around your age or slightly younger than you. They inherently give you more respect than the average 19 year old A1C. You'll notice general favoritism towards you as well and you'll have a lot more in common with your leadership. Also be prepared for A LOT of people calling you old timer, old man, grandpa. Take it as a compliment nobody bags on your age because they're trying to be mean people respect age. but it's always fun to bag on the old guy use it as motivation to be better than the younger enlisted especially at PT and just have fun with your experience.
Kris, thanks for this!! This helps me out a lot! Seriously, I'd be lying if I were to say I wasn't nervous. Sounds like you're enjoying your time in the AF? Which AFSC did you pick up? Thanks!!
I'm a 3D1X3 which is Radio Frequency transmissions. essentially i'm a Cyber Support AFSC. you need a E70 to be considered for the duty. It's nice though we have missions all over the world, we also have a lot of cool "desk" jobs and we are not restricted to bases we can go to. We can operate at any base the air force uses or owns. and our TDYs we can travel the world doing what we do.
Hey Kris, That's on my list!!! Thought it sounded awesome. That's good to know! Thanks again for sharing this info. I'm actually really hoping to get that slot.
hope you get it. I love it. And the civilian application for this job is amazing. A level 2 tech working for Verizon makes 80+k a year. a Tech with Sec + certification and a Top secret clearance you can easily clear over 100k. Good luck to you!
Thanks, Kris! I'll keep you updated. Do you have to have Top Secret from AFSC? Again, really do appreciate all of the info. I'm slightly less nervous now hahaha.
Thank! I'm 39 and I need a life styles change. I'm not bright aswell, when it comes to book work. I get distracted easily with cell phone beside me it doesn't help either.
I feel you on that bro!
Hey we're using the same book, its amazing I must say :)
Nice!! Yea, I would have definitely bombed the test without it haha. Are you taking yours soon? Which branch are goin going for?
Have fun take your time.
I’m 39 and headed to BMT on December 3. What is an average day like in the winter and what can I expect on Christmas and New Years?
Hey Erik - On those days you'll have an "off" day. You'll do details and such but will pretty much be in the dorm watching DVDs and you'll probably get an extra phone call too. For the rest of the time pretty much its just details, marching around to all of your appointments, drill and ceremony, and then PT in the evening followed by more drill and ceremony and details. You'll do awesome!
I‘m almost 39 and will be taking the ASVAB in the next couple weeks. Fingers crossed lol
I cleared MEPS today with 91% on ASVAB. I am going to be 39 next week. Still waiting for enlisting under a job. Branch: USAF Reserve.
Nice!!! That's legit! Any tips for the views on how score that high? Nice work!
+Erik First, I want to thank you for what have you been doing with your channel. Greatly appreciate your time, effort and courage! Honestly, I don't think I fall under the usual demography of ASVAB candidates and since hasn't taken any conventional preparation won't be able to provide a realistic guideline like yours. Nonetheless...a) I bought a book (KAPLAN ASVAB), never read more than 10 pages back in summer, but without a doubt it is a great resource. I wasn't sure about receiving my citizenship before my 39th birthday, so at a point left the idea of pursuing military. b) Downloaded one app in December mid, which helped me tremendously about getting to familarize with the exam in general and basics of science, as I never studied science, let alone electronics in high school (International background). Didn't take any full length test before actual ASVAB, but I can imagine that can go a long way. The exam was around 2.25 hours for me followed by TAPAS (30 minutes). Two other candidates (must be high schoolers or younger) with me finished their tests way before I did.
c) What I think , helped me was taking one question at a time and remained zoned out while tackling that question during the actual exam. Never thought about anything else besides doing mild stretching while on seated.
I do have few questions for you and greatly appreciate if you can take time answering:
a) I received BMT guide from my recruiter which states BMT PFT standards by age bracket. According to that, you and I fall under same age bracket and the 1.5 mile run time required to pass is 14:00 for our age group. Can you confirm that? I saw your video where you attempted 1.5 mile run under 12 minutes (do you know if active duty and reserve has slightly different criteria?) .
2. I am a non-athletic guy with above average motivation to achieve BMT minimum graduation standard. Can you refer me to sources which can help me to gradually shred off 5 minutes from my 1.5 mile run time in 2 months? Greatly appreciate your any advice, suggestions or direction. Keep up with your great work! BTW how is your AFOQT prep going?
I'm 38. Took the ASVAB yesterday and got a 36 but my line score wasn't that great. My recruiter said that there were no jobs for me base on my line score. Very DISAPPOINTED when he said that. I'm gonna try again w/In 30 days but I really need help with everything. Math was my strongest while testing.
That's actually not bad for taking it after being out of school for so long. Sounds like if you just focus on the math most of the time you'll be good to go. Have you picked up an asvab book yet? They're all similar to whats on the test. Library has a lot of them. I basically studied with a book and used asvabpracticetestonline.com/ over and over again until the problems started sticking. When you do your studying try not to overload yourself with too many different types of math problems at one time. Focus on really understanding a few at a time. Sorry for the rant. Hope this helps. Hit me up anytime with any questions. Keep me updated!
Erik he gave me some websites to study from. Recruiter said he hasn't booked an admin job in months so bc time is against me, he advised me to also study mechanical and electrical for options in jobs. An admin job would be great but then what r the chances of me getting one if they don't come around that often? I will stop by the library to check out some asvab books to help me out as well.
yeah definitely study those mechanical and electrical sections too. They're not too difficult. I was trying to shoot for a specific job too but I may go electrical. But yeah, same for me I'm racing against time on this one too
Hi Erik, how is going man? I’m suggesting to you and asking for a video about the jobs in the Air Force fields and talking about their tech school please Erik if you don’t mind. Thanks for your effort
Thanks Firas! I'll definitely try to find a cool way to talk about that stuff!
I’m glad I seen your video I thought I was kinda crazy for trying to join at 35. I take my practice test next week I’m studying my tail off and I’m taking every practice test I can find.
Right on Billy. Let me know how it goes! Which branch are you going for?
Erik I went today and got my date to got MEPS. They were booked up until May 21 so I have a month to study my tail off. I’m going into the Air Force Reserve.
That's cool dude. Best of luck! I'm still trying to decide between the Air Force Reserve or Air National Guard. Keep me updated!
Erik Everything has changed for me since my first reply LOL! I am now going to the Air National Guard. They had more openings in the kind of jobs I wanted to do and they had an opening earlier on May 7. In my opinion the reserves and Air Guard are basically the same thing. It might depend on the job you want to do on which would be better. I wanted communications and the reserves in my area didn’t have many openings but the Guard did.
Nice!!! I'm actually working with the ANG recruiter now. They've been super cool with me. Hoping to pick up Contracting close by or find a wing with that job opening. Lets keep in touch, who knows maybe we'll ship at the same time! lol
i have the Barron's ASVAB flash cards and i'm studying but i can't seem to get my score high. i want to join the Airforce and i scored a 42 on the practice the first time and he told me to study and come back and then i scored a 38. GRRRRR! so frustrating. i'm so stressed over it. i just need some tips so that i can pass. Please help
Sounds like you're really close. We just need to work on the parts that are the hardest for you. Do you know which sections need the most work? When do you plan on taking the test again? Let me know. I'm also thinking of doing a couple of RUclips live vids since I'm not very good at making videos haha.
yes, i had a lot of issues with AR but now i went back to my recruiter and i scored a 53. Now the issue is that i have a son and i have to do a dependency waiver. Do you know anything about those? or do you know anyone that knows information in regards to that?
Let me see what I can find out. I'm married but don't have any kids. But if he said that you need a waiver then it's all good. At least he's not saying you won't be able to get one haha
I got a 56 on the practice test, i'm just super nervous about taking the actual one but this made me feel better lol
Awesome, Sophia! You'll do well! When do you plan on taking it? Which branch are you going for? Let me know!
I post content weekly sharing my experience with the Air Force. I failed the ASVAB once but passed twice lol. If you shared your feedback that would be great!
I’m going to that MEPS in a week :)
How'd it go?
I recently got my GED, got a 69 on my asvab pre test, than got an 83 on the actual test. Maybe I'm smarter than I think, but I'd really like to know why the asvab was so easy. Most of the people I was at meps with said they got somewhere between 50-70. I have never been that much smarter than my peers. I just find that wierd.
Nice bro! Cause you're not there to mess around. Awesome score!
I am 36 and I’ve decided to join the AF reserve. Tried the practice tests online and it just made me depressed. It made me feel so dumb. I have a degree but the math is killing me. I really want to make this work.
Hey Shan! Same here! I sucked so bad at it. What helped was I would look up each problem on youtube and watch math people solve it and talk about it. It's easier for me when I see other people do it. After doing that for a while and studying each one I started to realize that all the questions are the same just the numbers were different. Let me know if you need any help on anything!!! You can do it! Seriously, if I was able to pull it off anyone can. When are you thinking you'll take the asvab?
Thank you. Your kind words and video experience are giving me lots of hope! I haven’t set a date to take the test because I really need to re-learn math starting from the basics. I am completely clueless just within the first few questions on online practice tests totally blew my mind. I can solve the practice problems with a calculator but I still need to learn how to do all of it in paper.
No Problem!! Yeah, same here! I was a little freaked out when I found out we couldn't use calculators hahah. But yeah, you'll do awesome! Let me know if you get stuck on anything
Erik how long did you study before you took the test?
Hey Eric...your video got very great helpful and thanks for uploading. I have a question does MAVNI is going to open on October? Else when it is going to open do you have any idea. Thanks
Hey Vasa! Thanks for the comment. Unfortunately I'm not sure on this one. Best thing to do is talk to your local recruiter to see when it opens up. Sorry I couldn't help on this one! Thanks for checking out the vids! Keep me updated!
lol yes sir. I'm joining the military at 32. I'm meeting with my Navy recruiter tomorrow. I'm extremely nervous about ASVAB test. I don't want to take the practice exam either haha. I know he'll probably make me do it. I know where my weaknesses are. I did take a Fire Fighter exam in Austin Texas and I scored a 88 on there exam. I didn't really study. There exams are really close to the ASVAB exam.
Right on! You're going to do awesome man. Just remember, if you bomb it you can retake it. That should ease some of the stress. Pretty much everything from the test are in the books and practice exams. You'll be good to go...especially since you've already crushed the Fire Fighter exam. Which jobs are you going for? Going Active Duty? Keep me updated!
Yep I am going active duty! I want to make a career out of it. Well...I am in the same boat as you are. I have Associate degree and a bachelor degree. I hope officer program. I don't know how that works. I would like to do anything aviation or anything to get on USS independence or USS freedom. Aviation is my number one pick, because it has so many opportunities in the civilian world. Just in case somewhere down the road I have to leave early than I want to. I have thought about Corpsman too. I have EMT training also. I don't want to be on a sub. Thanks for boost. I hate! test. I never did well. I've always been B or C average student.
Legit! Shit, B's & C's?! Dude, I was like a C- student hahaha. But yeah, you'll do awesome. For the officer recruiter in your area Officer Programs Office: (210) 295-9657 . Let me know how it goes!
Thank you so much amigo. I'll definitely let you know how it goes and keep you updated. I can't wait to swear in and finally start my journey.
Awsome, Brother! Man, I know the feeling. Lets do this!!
I know you probably won’t answer but I recently bought the book you have but I got the fourth edition and I just wanna know what are your tips on how to study? I started doing the practice tests and I’m mostly focusing on the four main topics
Hey Bro, sorry for the late response. What helped me the most were those online practice tests and also, I'd only study a couple pages out of the book at a time. I didn't cram. I just made sure I studied just enough to not get overwhelmed. It made things go by a lot easier. Also, give yourself plenty of time before you take the test. That way you don't have to stress out too much. Hope this helps!!
Idk if you are still replying but I failed the ASVAB 3 times and really want to be a marine could you give me some advice as to how I should study better....And the third time I would’ve passed if I had higher line scores
Hey Bro, sorry for the late reply. I just graduated. I would suggest trying to get a tutor and watch videos on how to solve the math problems. Also, make sure to practice them. Over time, you'll start to memorize how everything is done. Good luck!
Go to khan academy man. It breaks down everything stupid dumb. Something I am doing lol. Also after you memorize a lot of those parts of math go to a website called. March2success
ive been struggling on the arithmetic reasoning olny and algebra do you have any books recommended or tips? lol
Same here, PHAZE209BEAST! I'd used this book amzn.to/2qLcY6i . The practice tests that come with it really do help. Take the practice tests and answer everything wrong so you can see the explanations on how to get the right answers. Let me know if you need further details. Like I said I'm terrible at math, I just studied...A LOT haha
Erik okay thanks !👍👍
yeah just come to my freshman alegebra class
@@erikminamihata nice video I am 31 and considering joining the national guard or air guard I'm doing my research to see which one would be a good fit for me. My question is how often did you study for the asvab what grade level is the math based on.
Try march2success
Hi. Im 32 and trying to join Air force. Im doing ASVAB next week.
How'd it go?
Don't be rude and answer the question please. Some people man.
I'm 26 and going into the Army. Made a 45 "predicted AFQT" on the recruiter's asvab pre test. Said I'd see around 10 points higher on the actual ASVAB and he'd seen up to 30 higher. Wanted to send me for the real one at a MET site that night. This coming Monday I'll be taking the actual ASVAB here locally so I don't have to take it at MEPS where I'll be fatigued and feeling like shit from having to get up so early. I'm studying with ASVAB for Dummies haha.
Right on!! Yeah sounds like you're on the right track! Which MOS are you interested in? Let me know how it goes!!
I'm looking at 11B/infantry or 19D/cavalry scout. I'll post back when I receive my scores hopefully Monday night.
Man, that's legit! For sure. Best of luck!
AFQT 61 I honestly have no clue how the calculate a 61 based on my standard scores. I also don't know how to calculate my asvab score.
Standard scores: GS 50, AR 54, WK 54, PC 54, MK 50, EL 55, AS 63, MC 49, AO 51, VE 54.
Line scores for the ARMY (each branch has a different scoring model) GT 109, CL 107, CO 108, EL 110, FA 108, GM 111, MM 115, OF 111, SC 108, ST 108.
I qualify for most any combat position including ranger and Airborne school. There are also a number of intelligence positions I qualify for which is surprising since I feel my standard scores are pretty low. My GT line score is 1 point off from qualifying for special forces!!
As for the test I feel it was more difficult than the practice version when the recruiter assured me that it was easier. Study folks. That's all I can say. If you're right out of high school you shouldn't have a problem. I'm 26 and haven't touched a book in nearly 10 years. As for word knowledge you're just gonna get screwed big time. They ask for similar words of words you can hardly pronounce and all 4 answers are words you've never heard of either haha.
I made 43 when I took it in 2012. Im retaking it tomorrow so I'm thinking i'll do a bit better this time around.
Right on, Jeff! You'll do a lot better! There are a lot of material out there now to help prep for it. When are you planning on taking it?
I really appreciate that enthusiasm, but he gave me like one day to prepare, so I still made like a 44, BUT that's alright. I still qualify for quite a few MOS' and I've already found a few that Interest me!
Right on, Brother! Best of luck! Let me know how everything goes!
I just took mines n made a 16... I'm 25 and didn't really study but now I'm about to STUDY LIKE h3ll!! my line scores were in the 30's and 40's smh
You got this!! Let me know how it goes!
YOU look younger Erik! But I want to join the military. Going to talk to a recruiter tomorrow!
Ha! Thanks, Stephanie! That's awesome! Which branch are you going for? Keep me updated!!
How many days went by before you took the ASVAB after talking to your recruiter?
I asked for 3 weeks. I needed to study hahaha. Are you heading over to MEPS soon?
Hi! So I have the same exact book and I just wanted to get a gist of your study plan...like how long did you study each day and how long did it take you to study practically the book before you were ready to take the actual ASVAB?
I tend to have test anxiety and I honestly just want to make sure I get a 60+ on the ASVAB because the rate (job) I want is a Corpsman for the Navy.
Thank you for the informative video, btw :)
Hi Ma! So basically I just studied around an hour~ two hours a day trying to not focus on too much at a time. Maybe like 3 pages at a time tops. I would also take the practice test for the sections I studied everyday. It didn't matter if I got something wrong because if I did I'd go back and try to figure out what I messed up and study from there. So pretty much I was reviewing the stuff I knew and studying the crap out of the stuff I didn't. Best of luck!!! Let me know how it goes! When do you take the test?
Erik, thank you s’much for replying!
I’m planning to take it towards the end of May. I’m going to start studying tomorrow, just as you suggested with at least 1-2 hrs/day. Do you think it’d be enough time?
My goal is to get a qualifying score for Corpsman in the Navy. (I pretty much don’t want any other job than that lol.) I would want to work towards scoring a 70 :)
Is there any other studying tips that you could share in regards of the arithmetic/math knowledge portion? That’s pretty much the one I kind of struggle with because my stronger point is English
Hey Ma - take the practice test here asvabpracticetestonline.com/ and see how you do. That should give you a good idea on where you're at with the test. I'd start with the math knowledge and arithmetic first. Spend from now all the way up until you take the test working on those problems. Work on the ones you're having the hardest time with the most. When you take the practice tests at the end of it it'll show you what you got wrong and what the right answer is and then go back and do it again. Also, I watched youtube tutorial vids on the math problems that I was having a hard time understanding. That helped a lot! As you start getting more comfortable start throwing in the rest of the stuff. Let me know how it goes!
nice bro I'm getting ready for it
jd M right on!! When are you taking it?
Wassup Erik, I'm thinking about joining the Navy I scored a 39 on the practice test, which is pretty bad. While taking the test I ignored the EL, AS, MC, and AO parts of the test. Now I'm wondering if ignoring the sections caused me to get an awful score.
What's up Alucard! Yeah, most likely...but hey, it was just a practice test. Don't sweat it. Just start prepping and take it again. I started at a 36 haha. But yeah, just start preparing and that score will jump up no problem. When do you plan on taking it again? I have a bunch of friends in the Navy...they loved life at sea! Keep me updated!
My best friend is a literal genius. He made a 92 and didn't even study. I'm guessing he's just naturally gifted. I made a freaking 38. That's about as good as a monkey could score.
Damn, that's pretty good. At least we got the looks going for us haha
Erik haha
Sadly I need to wait 2 or less months to retake my ASVAB.
However I got a question, last time I took my ASVAB I did horrible. Before that I got a 46, just needed to study more and I did study more but when I took the ASVAB I got a score of 23. I'm trying to find just what I can do to get my score higher but I seem to get anxiety almost when it comes to taking the test and with certain math problems. Do you know how exactly I could get over these or how maybe I should study??
((Sorry if this doesn't make sense. Tried to word it the best I could!!))
Hey DeathlyWish - Well first off it's cool that you have to wait 2 months to take the test. Now you'll have extra time to study. I have the same problem as you. But what really helps is just doing the practice tests over and over again. You'll do it so many times that even if you're nervous you'll automatically know what to do.
Same thing when I would learn songs that I'd have to perform. Even though I'd get extremely nervous before a show I knew that no matter what, I've practiced enough to know that I'll play the songs. Repetition will get you through it.
I also used flash cards to help me memorize the formulas, but I made sure not to look at more than like 5 or 6 cards at a time. I'll try to make a video on some study and test taking techniques I used. Would that help? Let me know!
Hey man, I'm in the same boat as you. I just turned 37 and did all the paperwork for the prescreen last week. Any reason you didn't do the PiCAT over doing the whole ASVAB at MEPS?
What did you do to keep you motivated to study?
I just turned 30.. I'm thinking about it hardcore, but in the back of my mind also thinking I might be too old ..
I'm 33 and trying to join the Navy. Their legal department is trying to play some games though. Good luck with the process though!
Thanks! Best of luck to you too! Keep me updated!
Finally heard back from the legal department. As of right now, it's a no. They say I'm not able to join, but if I get my record expunged I can. So now I have to deal with that fun process and try again.
Don't give up. Back in 1998 I went to every recruiter's office and they all said I'd never get in. Here I am almost 20 years later and it's happening. Hope all works out!!
hi just asking what kinda record would prevent someone from joining? i have a record but no felonies dv or dui and it was all 14 yrs ago. THX
Well in my case it was a petty misdemeanor trespassing charge and a disorderly conduct charge, but only because the Navy considered it a domestic violence case. I had to get those expunged to join. Typically as long as it isn't a serious crime on your record or a DV issue you'd probably be ok.
I got kicked out while I was in line because I had my phone in my pocket :/, I even offered to put it back in my car but they just told me to call my recruiter to retest.
Aww damn, bummer! Yeah, the people running the show were threatening everyone with that. Which meps station did you go into? when are you retaking the test?
Fort Lee, Virginia and i'm going back tomorrow morning :/
Hey man I go to meps this Monday to do the asvab and the physical. I'm nervous about the asvab (especially math) I've took a practice at the recruiters office and made a 59. He told me I'll score 5-10 pts higher. I'm joining the AF as well. I'm really hoping to get into hvac or electrical systems (basically an electrician) so I have something transferable when i get out. What are some ways to calm myself down before the test,? thanks man
Right on Ben! So best advice I can give you on that is try make sure to read the problems carefully. They'll be ones in there were say the first part of the questions starts off in inches and the second part of the question will be in feet. Just try to look out for small details like that.
Also, sounds lame but one of the best things to do when you need to relax during the test is to check your breathing. For real, if you start panicking most likely you're also holding your breath. This really does work for me. Oh yeah, and know that if you don't score as high as you would have liked on the test retake it! Don't settle. Aim for those scores you need to get those jobs you want! Those are awesome jobs! I walked in knowing that if I didn't score well it wasn't going to be that bad because I'd retake it. That really relaxed me. Hope this helps! Keep me updated!!
Hey Erik. I'm meeting with my recruiter this week. Im not insecure about anything except math. I suck at math. I plan to study obviously. But do you have any advice for people who suck at math? Say I score low for math and high or average on everything else. What is your advice to me? Thanks ! Im 21 btw.
Sorry for the late reply. Practice Practice Practice. Take one of the online practice tests. Look up each problem on youtube and watch how its solved. Do that for every problem. Keep doing that over and over again till you have it down. Hope this helps!
im kindda nervous
You'll do awesome! Just remember if you don't do well the first time you can always retake it. When are you taking it?
I made an 82 first try a couple days ago in tenth grade it’s not really that difficult
Hey brother I’m just looking at your video so I went to meps my first time to take the test I studied a little but not how I should’ve been just tried losing about 30 pounds so I can make tape , did that wasnt easy so I’m down to 235 and now I tried cramming everything in the spand of 4 days for the test and I scored a 12 couldn’t believe it but that was my initial one now I wait a month and I’m a nervous test taker I get anxious and shit I even took my time on the test took it at 1 and didn’t leave meps until 430
Hey Andres, yeah I get nervous too when taking tests. The good thing is though now you know what you need to study. Give yourself a couple months before you take it again. That way you don't have to cram. Try to just learn a page or two out of your book a day. On the weight thing, try not eating until 11am and stop eating at 6pm. That should help out with that. But yeah, you still have a few chances left to take the test again so see if you can go to the library and pick up some study material.
Erik yeah bro I’m studying the 4 main parts of the test that configure the AFQT score but the when I get my results back I was at like. 42 in AR , 35 in WK , 48 in PC and 41 in MK my recruiter told me that they need to be in the 50s at least?
Mike Shinoda is that you?
Well I am one step closer to the edge hahaha. By the way, Moi Dix Mois is awesome. I saw them live at Anime Expo. Hoping one day to see Malice Mizer get back together with Gackt for a reunion haha
Thanks for information. I'm trying go for the Army I'm 31 years old. I took the test last Thursday got a 13 ugh... Got 30 days from then to retake it.
No worries, Cory! Best of luck on your studies. Let me know if there is anything I can do to help! Keep me updated!
Thanks Erik! Just yesterday I took the practice test got a 40, I will take the real asvab again on Monday December 4.
Nice Cory! Just a little more studying and you'll be squared away! Which job are you going for? I think it's time we started a 30 and up club hahah
Erik thanks! And I was looking at MP or combat Medic .... Having a 30 up club don't sound bad!
Legit!! Yeah keep me updated!!
Hey Eric, enlisting into the marines. My question is what study guide did you use? I appreciate you and thanks for your help!
Cole, that's awesome! I used this book amzn.to/2qLcY6i , the CD it came with (all practice tests on it) and I went to www.asvabpracticetests.com/ and did the practice tests on there. Basically, i took all the practice tests over and over. You can probably find the book at the library though, so you don't have to buy it.
The best part about taking the practice tests is that when you get the wrong answers the test will show you how to get the right answer....don't worry about not knowing certain things in the beginning, all that will come in time from repetition. Best of luck! Let me know if you need any further details!
Erik I appreciate all the links and great info! I've been wondering how to go about all of this and here you are! I'll let you know how it all works out in the end, thanks again man!
For sure! Keep me updated! Hit me up too if anything comes up!
hi o am 29 and joining the army,I take the asvab next thursday.i have a GED so o have to score over a 50,but on the practice test I scored a 56. math is my weakest point.
Same here! I'm terrible at math! If you learn all the common formulas and conversions (feet to yard, inches to feet, etc) you'll be fine. Try taking a bunch of online practice tests. I took them and then printed out all the ones I did wrong and just kept redoing them over and over till I got them right. Let me know if you need a list of formulas for the test. Good luck!
Erik Hey sorry to hijack this...can you please help me with the list? I am taking the AFOQT soon and that would help.
No problem! I'll try to get something together this weekend. I've been meaning to upload a video for the math section. I better get on it hahaha
Hey please update....did you get in??? I just went to enquire information...been in the Medical Field for 8 years now....I am 38y. So will see...
Hey Aliah! Sorry, it's been crazy over here lately. I had to discharge from DEP. I switched over to an Officer applicant. Nice, which jobs were you interested in? Active duty?
Erik : Let me update.. I did 33 for the practice test. My recruiter did not let me practice not study much. It's fine. Now I know what to do.
Erik oh and yes. I am looking into cryptology. I have experience as a Medical Translator, plus I have a background in Arabic/Spanish/ Russian and Turquish and I have been learning some Hebrew. So will see.
Man I failed my asvab I feel to damn stupid most of the word I knew Arthmatic was hard as hell math knowledge was pretty damn easy PC was confusing but I felt I did great and I still didn't pass my AFTQ was a 29 and it was my second time taking it they gave me a month to study 😞
Don't feel stupid. That shit is hard! I had to study...A LOT! I actually learned quite a bit of stuff on youtube....math formulas, etc. You got this! The online practice tests help! Let me know if you need any pointers. Lets get that score up!
I took a practice ASVAB in the recruiters office and got a 29 :( I'm going for Airforce because of my age... I'm 35.
I take the real ASVB on December 21st... I'm EXTREMELY weak in math. I can do the VERY basics lol. I can add, subtract, multiply and divide.. but I have a REALLY hard time with fractions, decimlas, equations. I never had this type of math before. IF I did I don't remember lol. I've been out of HS for 17 years ! I've lost 115 lbs so I can join the military that was a piece of cake in dropping the weight... studying for the ASVAB has been the most difficult part. ANY advice would be great !! what do you think can help me on the math ?? Should I only focus on the word knowledge, paragraph competition, math reasoning, and math knowledge ?? those 4 subjects are what gives you your AFQT score ?? please help ! :)
Hey Michelle. Yeah, I'm on the same boat as you. The math was jacked up for me. The best advice I can give you on that is to watch videos of people solving similar problems while doing the free online practice tests. When you're studying don't do too many different types of problems at once. Just practice a page a day out of your book doing the same problem over and over till you get it right. I'll post a video with some tips on fractions, decimals, and equations. When are you taking the exam again?
Erik Thank you. I think that will definitely help in not trying to learn to many different math problems at once... the word problems is pretty tough also. I take my test on the 20th or 21st. utube has helped a bit also in watching how certain math is done. I also heard to learn the FOIL method and the reverse FOIL method... do you remember a lot of the word knowledge problems ? was there a lot of fouls and equations to remember ?? I've lost 118 lbs and this is SO much harder... I feel like I'm over my head with the ASVAB :(
Michelle S: I got 33 with 2 days of practice. 😌But I am about to study hard...so I can do this... Please update.
Michelle S how did you do on the test
I pretty much just graduated highschool, and I'm considering the air force. But I feel like I wouldnt beable to get a good score:(
You can do it. Seriously, if I can anyone can. Just make sure to give yourself lots of time to study. If you don't get the score you need the first time take the test again. Let me know how it goes or if you need any advice. You got this!
hey how r u doing just a quick question? I'm almost at that cut off age for the airforce and I'm not good at math at all. how difficult is it to score over at least a 50
Hey Francisco! I am the absolute worst at math! You can do it you just have to practice. The books really do help a lot! The practice questions are very similar to whats on the test. But yeah, if I can do it you can totally do it. Let me know if you need any pointers on what to study
Erik, I can't remember, do you get your asvab scores right after the test?
Mike, I had to call my recruiter right after to get mine. I heard though they give them to you at MEPS right away if you fail it. But yeah, my recruiter had the results by the time I walked out of the building.
wat if im not that good in math & great in the other areas, can those score make up for it to give me a pass ?
I would say study and focus on what gives you the hardest time. You want to score as high as possible!
@@erikminamihata yeah I agree. I took the ASVAB the other day and bombed. So I’m working on my math to improve the next time I take it.
How do you take the practice test at home ? I want to get in the Air Force I've been studying for two months now and I'm gonna continue to study until the end of July
Hey Dakari, I used websites like this www.asvabpracticetests.com/ along with this book
amzn.to/2qLcY6i . One of the keys is to answer all the questions even if you don't know how to answer them. You'll be shown how to solve the problems. Sounds like you have a solid study plan! You'll do great! Let me know if you need any further details on what to study.
aint this a trip. Im the same exact age as you wondering if i should go into this again.
Hey that's awesome! Maybe we can both end up at BMT at the same time! Going Air Force? Active Duty?
Yea, active airforce. Didnt know 39 was the age limit until recently. That asvab study book you linked on amazon is on the way. Still have to study a bit and get my physical fitness back into good shape. As for BMT, hope the job im looking for will open up in a fast time frame. Are you going all in on electrical jobs? I've been researching a lot on the jobs that are in demand (ship out fastest) and the jobs that are not in demand. Its gonna be a hard set of choices choosing top 8 or top 18 jobs that we have to list down to the recruiter and hope we get the job we want.
Right? I think I spent more time researching jobs vs studying haha. I have an awesome recruiter so she's been helping me out A LOT. She did say though that a couple of jobs I wanted are unicorns. 4A2x1, 6C0x1, 2P0x1, 4B0x1, 3E5x1, 1C8x1, 2A0x1, 1C8x2, and Open General 9T669/70. Really crossing my fingers for Contracting! What have you come up with so far?
So if I need a GT score of 80 ? What am I supposed to be getting on the asvab? Thinking of enlisting after high school. Thanks.
Hey Krafty, that's a tough question. I don't know exactly how all the scores up add up for your overall. I would say though if you can score an 80 on that section, you should be able to score well on the rest of the exam and you'll be fine. Especially since you'll be studying quite a bit. Which MOS are you going for?
Without any studying what so ever and being sick I scored a 41 with a GT of 100. Retesting soon.
I went into the recruiting office for the first time for the Army. I failed the first test at the office. a month later i came back , passed the test in the office. I took the asvab at Meps , failed.
Where am i going to re take the test? Am i going to the Army Recruiting office to take the test? If i pass it i don't have to take another test at MEPS? right just a Medical , physical test?
Or ? He just told me i have to wait 30 Days.
You're going to go back to MEPs to retest. Yeah, use that time to study. You'll do awesome. Probably just some nerves when taking it. Good luck! Let me know how it goes.
Any suggestions how to study on word knowledge? Because English is not my first language
Hey Jerald - I made a video about that section here:
ruclips.net/video/RITQtsvQrAI/видео.html
To be honest that section is very hard to study for. I'd say use the pointers in the video above and also to make sure to study really hard on the math, science, mechanical, electronics, auto & shop, & assembling objects sections. Which MOS and branch are you going for? What kind of score are you looking to get? Perhaps a good strategy would be to focus on the areas directly related to your end goal. Let me know and we'll figure something out! Hope this helps
Any Advice I took it twice , First Time 11 Second Time 25 , I'm praying I score enough for army , any advice ? .. besides Study
Hey Richie - Best advice I can give you aside from studying is to take the practice tests over and over. That way when you get to the exam you will at least have an understanding of what you're going to see. I actually watch a bunch of videos on how to solve math equations that were on those tests. I'll put up a video soon breaking down how I studied and went about it.
But yeah, I'm not like a person who did awesome in school so it should help. When do you plan on taking it? I'll try to put something up by Friday
My line scores was pretty good but my afqt was 40. I have a ged so i need atleast 10 more points im aiming for atleast a 65
I was thinking rifleman in marines but I still have a couple years before I plan on enlisting so not totally sure yet
Right on, Bro! Thats awesome you're planing early. I wish I did that! Every branch has awesome jobs and opportunities. Do your research, study, and pick your job/s wisely and you'll have a really solid foundation set for your future. Best of luck! Keep me updated!
Erik thanks man I certainly will.
Dude u have more tattoos than me. The marines wouldnt let me take the asvab. My tattoos is only on my bicep and a little past my elbow
arizona tea hey bro! Yea I heard marines are strict! Even when I was in Navy JROTC the Marine in charge of us would tell us not to get tattoos haha! Are you going for a different branch?
Erik - my tattoo goes past my elbow so probably not. They should let u serve your country no matter if u have tattoo. Just as long their not offensive, racist, etc
Heyy im practicing the asvab so that i can join the marines but i suck at math and i have been studying im nervous to go back for another practice test, the math always gets me stuck.
Hey same here! For real, math has always been my worst subject. The online practice tests help a lot. I'm putting a video op this week on doing the math sections. Hope they help! When do you plan on going back?
Erik they are having me go back on the 23rd to take another practice test.
What kind of math did you see on the test
Addition, subtraction, division, proportions, conversions, averages, solving for x, distance = rate*time, area of square, triangle, perimeter, math of money...sounds like a lot but not too bad
Y do you have an Army specialist PC in the background???
Hey Young Trill, I'm in the California State Military Reserve AKA CalGuard
www.calguard.ca.gov/CSMR?LeftNav=No
i have the ASVAB for Dummies book, and a website asvaber.com (Allows you to take practice tests online with a countdown) and the ASVAB freaks me out. The ASVAB test you took at home, was it the PICAT? I'm looking into the Air Force, semi interested in the Marines but mostly Air force
Yup! PICAT at home. Don't freak out haha, just prepare with the timer and you'll be good! Which types of jobs interest you more?
Well, on the Air Force side I'm more interested in mechanical type jobs or structural. Plus I'm interested in their educational mindset . I made a list but its not in front of me right now.
I like the marines because of their physical nature, something I use to be a while back ha.
Nice Bro. Both are going to be legit choices. I'm all about the Air Force. When I go operational my wife and I are both going to work on getting Master's Degrees. But yeah. Go Air Force!! HAHA, you'll work on some sick air frames!
