Military & ASVAB exam

What is the ASVAB Career Assessment?
The ASVAB is the most widely used multiple-aptitude test battery in the 
world. 

The ASVAB was originally designed to predict future academic and 
occupational success in military occupations. Since its introduction in 
1968, the ASVAB has been the subject of extensive research. Numerous 
validation studies indicate the ASVAB assesses academic ability and 
predicts success in a wide variety of occupations.

Several composite scores are formed from different combinations of ASVAB 
test scores. Three composites, or Career Exploration Scores, are provided 
specifically to help students engage in career exploration. These scores 
help students to get a good sense of their verbal, math, and science and 
technical skills compared to other students in the same grade. 

ASVAB results are reported to students and counselors on the ASVAB Summary 
Results sheet. This report shows grade-specific, gender-specific, and 
combined standard scores and score bands for all eight tests and three 
Career Exploration Scores. It also provides students with percentile-based 
interpretations of those scores. The ASVAB Summary Results sheet provides 
students with appropriate explanations of the scores, as well as 
suggestions for their use.
