2017 / 2018 ASVAB For Dummies

Wow, it changed my whole perspective on what was going to be on the actual test. A lot of the things in the practice test were things I really didn't know, especially in the mechanical and electronics knowledge. Of course, those sections don't exactly count unless you're pursuing a job in those fields, but a lot of the knowledge in the practice tests is very useful. Having not taken a mathematics course for awhile, it was good to retest my abilities on their problems. Whether or not you really want to score high on your ASVAB, I would suggest it just for keeping you sharp.edit: I'm currently in the process of joining the Air Force and passed the ASVAB with a 95/99

Using this book for my ASVAB, I scored a 89. To study off of this, I would write down notes in Cornell format, and I would study off of my notes each night. I recommend you to take the practice tests that were provided after finishing your notes on each section. You could also use flash cards to study from this book, or interacting with the book directly. Like highlighting and underlining things, then going back to them and looking over them periodically. This book played a huge role for me getting a good score on my ASVAB

Trust me when I say this will be an important purchase for anyone looking to take the ASVAB. I only had three days notice to get ready for the test and felt nervous about it. But after reading through the book over those few days, I felt confident going in. I ended up scoring a 94 AFQT score and qualified for any job I wanted. Not only will this book give you some basic knowledge you'll need to complete subtests you're unfamiliar with, it will also give you tips and methods on how to best attack questions you don't know how to answer. Would definitely recommend this to anyone preparing for the ASVAB.-Samuel

Very helpful and has good tests. The actual ASVAB is easier, which is a good thing. Prepare and practice with harder tests and a study guide like this, and you will do well. Just give yourself plenty of time to study. Ideally at least a week at minimum. If I recall I practiced with this for 2 weeks. I scored 93 on AFQT. I was quite a few years removed from high school too, so I had to relearn some of this stuff. Others, I learned for the first time.Honestly, heck, it is a good resource just for learning, regardless of trying to get into the military. Having little to no mechanical knowledge, I enjoyed learning about that from this book.

Obviously the questions are the same but I would say it defitnstly helped me in the general topic. It helped me pass the ASVAB and the MEPS testing. You just have to be determined to learn and be on a schedule I would recommend. Worth the money for sure!!!

I actually passed the asvab and got into the military using this book. Well worth the money 👍

I got it for my brother, as I didn't need help on the ASVAB back in 2015. He didn't do well (went into the marines so obviously he didn't do terrible), but not because of the book, he genuinely didn't study (eyeroll). Word to the wise, make sure for whom you get this for, they can and will read it and use it.

Book was great, just as expected. I bought this book after being out of school for 3 years and it helped me score high enough to join the Air Force after studying for only a month. I’ve always used these books because it’s been the most helpful and easiest one for me. The dialogue is as if someone is talking to you, so it makes it easy to understand. They breakdown everything in detail and explain it in the simplest ways. The book does not contain actual questions as the test so don’t expect it to be the exact questions. It teaches you how to solve them though and the questions are very similar. Will continue to be my go to. Definitely recommend !! Especially if you’re a visual/verbal learner as myself.
