ASVAB
Test
The
ASVAB (Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery) is a test
offered to high school students in most high schools across the
United States. The department of Defense offers the test free of
charge to high schools and uses the test results to streamline the
military admission process. Many students, however, also take this
test as a pre-SAT test, an aptitude test, and/or a career guidance
opportunity.
Taking the ASVAB test
is voluntary. Parent permission is required for students under 18
years of age.
Students who wish to
take the ASVAB test but who do not want their names and contact
information added to the military’s recruiting list, may
protect the privacy of their names and contact information by
selecting Option 8 on the test.
