5.0 out of 5 stars Helpful Resource, February 26, 2002

Elaine V. Chabot (Uncasville, CT United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: ASVAB 17th Edition (Peterson's Master the ASVAB) (Paperback)

I found this book very helpful in preparation for the ASVAB. I scored a 90. It helped to get familiar with the format of the exam itself, as well as the way questions are worded etc. It was that much less to think about at exam time.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Preparation, February 7, 2002

Michele (Brooklyn, New York United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: ASVAB 17th Edition (Peterson's Master the ASVAB) (Paperback)

I bought this book and studied it at my leisure, not cover to cover. It really prepared me for the format and style of questions on the actual ASVAB. I followed the practice tests and read a bit on the subjects and still managed to score a 94! Definitely worth it! Better to take the test prepared and this is the tool to do it.

5.0 out of 5 stars ASVAB Test Coach, October 13, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: ASVAB 17th Edition (Peterson's Master the ASVAB) (Paperback)

This book is great. It helped me raise my overall scores by 30 points. The book includes four practice tests. It is well worth the money.

4.0 out of 5 stars Hey Recruiter
Perhaps you should mention that to get most jobs in the CG you need a combined ar/ve score of 105 on the ASVAB.

Study for the test! This book will help

5.0 out of 5 stars Passing ASVAB Score
I am an Air Force recruiter. You need a 36 on your ASVAB to get into the Air Force. The previous comments about passing ASVAB scores are incorrect.

Published on November 5, 2005 by Josh

4.0 out of 5 stars It helps
I feel this book can be very helpful. Although you only need a 45 to pass the ASVAB, it is still very important to do extremly well. Read more

1.0 out of 5 stars You've got to be kidding.....
I can't see the reason for buying a book on the ASVAB. You only need a 45 for the Army and a 65 for the Navy and Air Force. Anything above that is unnecessary. Read more
