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

Good evening, I know the submission date for the march board closes on Jan 30th. Was curious if anyone has the insight on how to see if our recruiter actually put us up to this board. Im applying for SNA and just feel my recruiter trying to maybe pull a fast one on me even tho I didn't get 7/7/7 or higher with my last ASTB attempt

Also was curious if anyone here knows how long or when we will hear something whether if we get picked up or not??

Goodluck everyone....

These are all good questions to bounce with your recruiter. They can verify if you applied or not.

How long it takes vary’s on the board, mine took about a month.

I took the ASTB for the first time yesterday and got a 54 OAR and 7/7/8.

3.46 GPA in Entrepreneurship, but I was a transfer student so I'm going to have to figure out what my combined GPA is.

This feels so surreal after all the time I spent studying. For study materials, I mostly used the ASTB prep app + the Jantzen and Mike sim, dabbling a bit in Kyle's guide closer to the test primarily for supplementary math practice. Watched tons of videos from Organic Chemistry Tutor on YouTube to brush up on specific concepts in math or mechanical comprehension. The day before the test I watched some of these Grammar Hero videos on Mechanical Comprehension for the ASVAB, and I think the style of questions here are of similar difficulty to the test (but this might have just been one of my weaker areas).

I also used the Cram flash cards, but I made a few edits for clarity/ memorization and uploaded them to a deck in Anki, which I highly recommend downloading on mobile and desktop as you can customize daily goals and easily switch between platforms with the sync feature. I've attached the Anki deck below.

As far as the test goes:
Math was harder than I expected but I saw logs pop up on my 10th question. Someone in a gouge (or a previous poster, can't remember) mentioned that this was a good sign, so I had to remind myself I was doing well. I maybe answered 4 or 5 more, running out of time while forgetting that I wasn't supposed to guess on questions (tired and a bit nervous).

Reading comprehension was harder than I expected. Not having real questions threw me off, but I just read the passages and selected the closest inferences that made sense.

Mechanical comprehension seemed so much easier than the questions in the prep app.

ANIT had 2-3 curveballs (just highly specific questions where I had to make educated guesses), but I finished the section confidently and on time.

PBM was so gratifying. Felt like the most challenging parts of the test were finally over and that all of my hard work was paying off in real time. 41/42 UAV, terrain ID maps were smaller than the prep app so it made it easier for me, and stick and throttle was way easier on the provided x52s than the ones I have at home (mine are really stiff). Also, the test is so much smoother in this section than the jantzen sim, but definitely use it for general practice plus dichotic listening and emergency procedures. I think hard mode speed is equivalent to the later stages of emergency procedures if you're getting them right.

I had no background related to aviation in September, and decided to go for it after finding out that street to seat was possible. This rocks, thanks airwarriors for helping me get my foot in the door, I couldn't be happier with this outcome.

What were your average practice scores in the ASTB-Prep App? On the math and mechanical? And ANIT!
