Practice by section

Four ASVAB tests make up your AFQT score, which decides whether you can enlist, so each practice exam gives them the most weight. The science and technical tests, which help decide your job options, share one section. Practice one area at a time, or take a full 80-question practice exam.

Arithmetic Reasoning 34 questions

Word problems without a calculator: rates, distance and time, percents and discounts, ratios and proportions, averages, interest, work and mixture problems, money, time and unit conversions.

Mathematics Knowledge 32 questions

High school math: fractions, exponents and roots, factors and primes, scientific notation, linear equations and inequalities, factoring and quadratics, angles, triangles, circles, area and volume, and probability.

Word Knowledge 32 questions

Choosing the word closest in meaning to a given word, on its own or in a sentence, across everyday and harder vocabulary.

Paragraph Comprehension 22 questions

Short passages followed by questions on the main idea, stated details, sequence, cause and effect, inferences, the author's purpose and tone, and words in context.

Science and Technical 58 questions

General Science (biology, the human body, chemistry, physics, earth and space), Electronics Information (Ohm's law, circuits, components, wiring), Auto and Shop Information (engines, brakes, drivetrain, tools and fasteners) and Mechanical Comprehension (levers, pulleys, gears, ramps, hydraulics and springs).

About the ASVAB exam

Who takes the ASVAB?

People applying to enlist in the U.S. military take the ASVAB, usually at a Military Entrance Processing Station (MEPS) or a Military Entrance Test (MET) site after a recruiter schedules them. Many high school and college students also take it through the ASVAB Career Exploration Program. Your scores decide whether you can enlist and which military jobs you qualify for.

How is the ASVAB structured?

At MEPS the test is the computer-adaptive CAT-ASVAB, which picks harder or easier questions based on your answers and takes about 2 hours on average. Its scored questions are General Science 15, Arithmetic Reasoning 15, Word Knowledge 15, Paragraph Comprehension 10, Mathematics Knowledge 15, Electronics Information 15, Auto Information 10, Shop Information 10, Mechanical Comprehension 15 and Assembling Objects 15. You may also see some unscored tryout questions. Most MET sites give the paper version, which has 225 questions in 149 minutes. Calculators aren't allowed.

What is the AFQT, and what score do I need?

Your Armed Forces Qualification Test (AFQT) score comes from four ASVAB tests: Arithmetic Reasoning, Mathematics Knowledge, Word Knowledge and Paragraph Comprehension. It is a percentile from 1 to 99 that compares you with a national sample of 18 to 23 year olds, so a score of 50 means you did as well as or better than half of them. There is no single passing score. Each branch sets its own minimum, which can depend on your education and changes over time, so check with a recruiter. Our practice exams use 70% correct (56 of 80) as a study benchmark, not as a prediction of your AFQT.

Which ASVAB tests does this cover?

All four AFQT tests, plus General Science, Electronics Information, Auto and Shop Information and Mechanical Comprehension, with mechanical problems described in words. We don't cover Assembling Objects, which tests how shapes fit together using pictures.

Can I retake the ASVAB?

Yes. After your first test you must wait one calendar month to retest, and another calendar month before a second retest. After that, you must wait six months between retests. Scores can be used to enlist for up to two years from the test date.

Is this the official ASVAB?

No. This is practice material we wrote to help you prepare, not real ASVAB questions. The ASVAB is a Department of Defense test, given at MEPS and MET sites through the ASVAB Testing Program. This site is not affiliated with the Department of Defense or any branch of the military.
