1,001 questions about the ASTB (post your scores & ask your questions here!)

57 percent

These are my trained model weights

GPA : 0.488
FOFAR : 0.316
AQR: 0.225
PFAR : 0.128
Stem vs non stem : 0.103

According to this GPA is the single biggest factor for selection and then FOFAR ( I believe this is because of way data is, most selected have a higher Fofar than a pfar )
If Others can help me improve this model that would be appreciated

O lord. I have a feeling PFAR should be weighted heavier no?
 
I do not train them myself man, the model trained by looking at the data, Maybe I should remove FOFAR from the consideration altogether but we know Navy does care about that.

Any Data science people here who can help us
 
if I remove the FOFAR from the model parameters then I get these weights
Predictor influence on Selection:
GPA 0.482
AQR 0.410
PFAR 0.219
FieldType 0.091
dtype: float64


0.5727247863824313

you still only have a 57% chance of selection
Get that GPA up!!

If a person is going for SNA then FOFAR is not a factor, if a person is going for SNFO then PFAR is not a factor.

History has shown over decades that PFAR and FOFAR are the biggest factors, those that have sat the board have said the same thing.
 
For those that have taken the ASTB recently, I have seen that you are given an equation sheet to use for the math/mechanical portions. Is this true? I've talked to some buddies who took it years ago and they were not given one so that might not be up to date information.

You get some simple equations for geometry. It is in a tab you have to click on
