About the test

What is the ASVAB?

The ASVAB (Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery) is the multiple-choice test every enlisted military applicant takes. It decides two things: whether you can enlist, through your AFQT score, and which jobs you qualify for, through your line scores.

The computer version you take at MEPS has 135 scored questions across 10 subtests, and most people finish in about two hours. Calculators aren’t allowed.

Count toward your AFQT

Arithmetic Reasoning, Mathematics Knowledge, Word Knowledge and Paragraph Comprehension. Your AFQT is a percentile from 1 to 99, and most branches need at least 31 to enlist.

6

Decide your job options

General Science, Electronics Information, Auto Information, Shop Information, Mechanical Comprehension and Assembling Objects. With the AFQT subtests, they make up the line scores each branch uses to qualify you for jobs.

The score that matters most

Your AFQT score is the first checkpoint.

Your AFQT (Armed Forces Qualification Test) score helps determine whether you meet the test requirement to enlist. It is built from four subtests:

How many questions are on the ASVAB?

It depends on the version. The computer-adaptive CAT-ASVAB has 10 to 15 scored questions per subtest and takes about 2 hours on average. The paper-and-pencil version has 225 questions and takes 3 to 4 hours.

Your AFQT score is a percentile from 1 to 99. A score of 50 means you did as well as or better than half of a national sample of 18- to 23-year-olds. Most branches need 31 to 36 to enlist with a high school diploma, and higher scores open up more jobs and options.
