If you're taking the ASVAB soon this is for you!Feb 03, 2011
By R. Cook
This book was excellent for cramming before the test. The material that the ASVAB covers is often dry and boring (honestly), but this book makes it an easy read that doesn't put you to sleep.
I used this book as a study aide 1 week before the test, and got a very high score. I'm not saying that using this book will guarantee you a High Score but I'm confident that it will help boost your score.
The fact is; the test material isn't hard but taking the test on things you haven't thought about for a while can be tricky. This book does three things for you:
1. Makes the material a bit more interesting
2. Jogs your memory
3. Familiarizes you with the style and timing of the test sections.
The 3rd one is the most important.
As if you couldn't guess, I highly recommend this book.

Getting to know the ASVABNov 14, 2010
By Presence
Yes, I know there are errors in the book. Yes, it could use additional editing. Just be aware of those things; I think the benefits are still there. It provides a great quick review. I have been out of school a few years, so the review of material was beneficial. When I took the practice test in the recruiter's office I got a 77. Not too shabby, but you do have to think, this score means a great deal for career choices. I studied for a couple weeks and when I took the actual ASVAB I got a 99.

Helped out a lotJun 11, 2011
By william1456
This helped me get my math skills up, it was the only thing I was slacking in on the ASVAB. I went from a 27 to a 49. I highly recommend this if you need help on the math because it sure as hell helped me and I'm sure if you put in at least 30 mins a night studying from this book, you will be able to get a good score on the ASVAB. Don't try and memorize anything you see in the book unless it's some sort of vocabulary because none of it was on the ASVAB, just review how you'd solve a certain problem because they're quite similar to the ones on the actual ASVAB.

i recommend this book to all seeking a career in the militaryFeb 17, 2012
By westly
as a former Armed Service Recruiter i will say i have seen my share of individuals that are from all walks of life that wish to pursue a career in the Military and the fact of the matter it all start with the ASVAB. Now some believe that if your currently in high school you don't need to study or if your in college that the Math is easier on this test. let me tell you all from experience that i have witness more failures from High School Students and even more from those who are in college. and here is my conclusion to this occurrence. first the asvab is to determine ones amplitude from an high school level which means if your in college and haven't brush up on simple high school math you may have a hard time on this exam. as for high school students i believe it is how things are taught. they are trained to solve problems but sometime it not retained because it not applicable to real world issues and is forgotten and the end of the lesson. and asvab for dummies make it simple to regain the knowledge to be successful on this exam. just make sure your guide is current.

If you need practice for ASVAB, BUY THIS BOOK!Feb 11, 2011
By kjlondry
I would HIGHLY recommend buying this book if your taking the ASVAB. If you study it you will know everything you need to know and much more! You will have no problem getting the job you want!! I just took the test yesterday and this book had all of the information needed to pass with flying colors! You will be highly over qualified to pass the ASVAB if you buy this book and actually spend the time to read through it and study anything you are not 100% knowledgeable about. It will improve your score on all sections of the ASVAB. GOOD LUCK
