EDUC-90034

Strengthen Your Performance on the Enlistment ASVAB Test

 

The Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB) is a timed multichoice exam that the US Military uses to assess whether candidates are qualified for service and to identify the occupational specialties they are best suited for. Let us show you how to strengthen your skills in key test areas so you can qualify for your dream job as part of our nation’s defense forces.

The course will prepare you to maximize your score on the AFQT (Armed Forces Qualification Test), a subset of the ASVAB that determines eligibility for military service. You will learn strategies and practice skills that will allow you to perform well on the four test sections that make up the AFQT – word knowledge, paragraph comprehension, arithmetic reasoning and mathematics knowledge. In addition, you will strengthen your understanding and skills in exam areas that indicate what military jobs are best for you. In addition to the four AFQT categories, these areas include assembling objects, auto and shop information, electronics information, general science and mechanical comprehension.
