The ASVAB Summary Results sheet reports three different types of scores. This tutorial explains what all the numbers mean.
Your ASVAB Summary Results sheet includes an access code you will use to login to ASVAB Program.com and access all post-test activities.
Each ASVAB subtest measures developed skills and abilities. The ASVAB Summary Results sheet reports several composite scores formed from different combinations of ASVAB subtest scores.
Each of these scores is made up of a combination of some of the individual ASVAB subtests. The Verbal Skills score includes Word Knowledge and Paragraph Comprehension. The Math Skills score includes Arithmetic Reasoning and Math Knowledge. The Science/Technical Skills score includes General Science, Electronics Information, and Mechanical Comprehension.
Each Service, and each military job, has different requirements, so qualifying AFQT scores can fluctuate. Each military Service calculates Service-specific composite scores to determine jobs for which you qualify. If you are interested in a military career it is best to discuss this score with a recruiter. Participation in the ASVAB CEP does not obligate you to talk with military recruiters or consider a military career.
Your ASVAB results provide information on your current skills and abilities. You can use your Career Exploration Scores to investigate occupations in the OCCU-Find. For example, if your Verbal Career Exploration Score is above average, explore jobs in the "most important" category.
If you are a junior, senior, or postsecondary school student, you can use your AFQT should you decide to talk to a Military recruiter about enlistment, for up to two years after you take the test. Your AFQT score can qualify you for certain jobs in the Armed Forces. However, each Service, and each Military job, has different requirements, so qualifying AFQT scores can fluctuate.
