ASVAB test

The Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB) is a multiple-aptitude test that measures developed abilities and helps predict future academic and occupational success, particularly for military recruitment.

The test is more than a military entrance exam. Students can use their ASVAB results to learn more about their interests and strengths, explore careers, and plan their future.
