Don't ignore these, but make sure you look at other resources. The ANIT is veryyyyy broad.

Same thing happened to me. My LT counted it as one of my 3 attempts, but it didn't matter as much for me because I did my first run-through for exposure, not for a score. Either way, pretty frustrating.

Thanks for the update, I just got the app.
During the reading comp review section, paragraphs, after clicking on the first question's answer the app crashes. Opening it up again does the same thing.
Assuming there's other bugs but wanted to bring this to your attention.
Hey thank you, I will take a look at this and see whats going on.
Thanks for telling me this; I found the issue, and I will try to get the update pushed out ASAP.

The attempts are recorded by NAMI, the ORs or test administrators have no say if an attempt is counted or not.

What's the best place to start for someone with basically no education in or knowledge of mechanics? It's a weak spot that I know I need to work on, but I'm not sure where my time would be best spent.
I would say just go to khan academy and watch some of his introductory mechanics videos.

Khan academy has some great videos on most of the science/math topics covered in the ASTB. You should be able to dig thru the rest of this thread to see what kinds of questions were asked then study up on those. @redbaronunofficial
Anyone have any recommendations to improve the AQR/PFAR/FOFAR? I’ve taken the ASTB twice, despite the equipment fighting against me (joy stick stopped working on me mid test) I scored a 60/6/5/6, based on what I’ve seen in these posts that doesn’t seem to be a competitive score. I wasn't sure if there were resources to help improve that portion of the test since I did nothing in between tests last time I just tried it again. Any help with be appreciated. Practice tips or such.

Have you tried this simulator? https://jantzenx.github.io/ASTB/ It's a replication of the stick-and-throttle portion of the test. You use your mouse and keyboard, but there are ways to plug a joystick into it for the most realistic experience.

Practice for a few minutes everyday and keeping track of scores for trends in improvement

I’ve been improving fast over the past couple days. What I’m doing is starting out on an easier setting, and focusing on only one of the targets. Once I can reliably get a low score on one, I switch to the other and repeat. Once I can do both independently, then I try doing both of them at the same time.
Have you tried using the prep app? The simulator PFAR and FOFAR section of it is pretty good. And yes your oar score is pretty good but if you are tryna go for pilot those test aren’t competitive based on the last board, but if your going for NFO then you are have good scores (for reference I had a 6/7/7 on last board and got a no, so defiantly aim for those 8s and 9s) .
