ASVAB

Post by Mika »

As some of you know, I am an Army Reservist split-op, 13F Airborne. Forgive me if this is the wrong place for this topic, but according to my research, you need a 110 GT score and overall score of 50. At the time when my dumbass took it, I was told to "just get a 31", and so I took about 30 minutes, got a 41. I am positive I can get at least an 80 if i retook it, but is this really necessary to get into RIP?

You were told wrong. Your GT score is going to be a determining factor for a lot of schools.

Go talk to someone about taking the FAST class to get more info on how to take the ASVAB and retake the test.

Do they still offer BSEP in the Army? At least I think it was BESP.
It's all good.

BSEP and FAST are the same program.

Designed to significantly increase test taking skills and hopefully raise some GT scores.

Only available to Military.

An applicant or DEP must wait 30 days and reapply to take the ASVAB.

That's technically illegal if he passed the first time, but fuck it.
