What was your OAR? If that's lower it may indicate the Math/Reading/Mechanical sections were where you did not score as well.

For the Terrain ID, this video was helpful. The strategy I used was to find a straightish line on the terrain and rotate the compass rose I made to align with that. I prioritized accuracy over speed on that section and just worked as quickly as I could without running out of time on each question (usually had about 2/3 of the time left on each question with this strategy).
dfrost,

My OAR was a 43. How does this factor into the 3 scores you receive?

I have been using the strategy from the video you posted and enjoy it. More than anything I just need more reps and comfortably with that section. I was scoring 80% and above on the simulators but never confident in my selections. I think I went to fast and urged to get the test over with.

The OAR is a separate, but the sections that make up the OAR (Math, Reading, Mechanical) also factor into your AQR, PFAR, and FOFAR scores (the Navy does not publish how each section is factored into each score however). With a lower OAR, it could point toward those sections being where you did not do as well.

And got it, the terrain is tough. Probably just some test nerves. You'll get 'em on the retake.

Wonder if a Freedom of Information request will force the navy to show how each score is factored lol.
