With 15 questions to solve in 55 minutes, (CAT-ASVAB) and 30 questions in 36 minutes (P&P ASVAB) – there’s a significant difference – which can be explained by the increasing difficulty in the computerized version. Let’s look at a few different examples.
It took Sarah six minutes to drive to the post office, eight minutes to find parking and five minutes to choose stationery; she then waited on line for seventeen minutes. How many minutes passed from the time Sarah left her house until she completed her errand at the post office?
Wrong
Wrong
Correct!
Wrong
The correct answer is C: 36
If we add up all of the time that it took Sarah from the time she left her house until she completed her errand, we will find that 6+8+5+17 = 36.
There are six printers at "Today's news" newspaper, all printing at the same constant rate. When working together, the six printers can complete the printing of tomorrow's newspaper within 12 hours.
If the owner wishes to reduce the printing time to 8 hours, how many other printers will he need to purchase, each with the same constant rate?
Wrong
Correct!
Wrong
Wrong
The correct answer is B: three additional printers.
The approach to this type of question is to work in two steps:
(1) Finding the individual rate of work per printer
(2) Finding the additional number of printers needed
Step 1- The work rate of 6 printers together is one newspaper/ 12 hours => 1/12. Since each printer works at the same rate, we can say that each printer contributes 1/6th of the total work rate, meaning: (1/12)/6 = 1/72, or one printer/ 72 hours.
Step 2- We will insert what we have learned in Step 1 and the required time (hours) into the basic formula:
Work = rate*time.
1 newspaper = number of printers*(1/72) *8 hours
=> 1 = number of printers*1/9
=> Number of printers = 9
The number of printers includes the original six printers + the additional printers required. Thus, 9 - 6 = 3 additional printers.
What was its original price if a shirt costs $20 after a 20% discount?
Wrong
Correct!
Wrong
Wrong
The correct answer is B.
Let's assume the original price is X. 80% of X (because there's a 20% discount) is $20. So, 0.8X = $20. Dividing both sides by 0.8 gives X = $25.
The scalding summer sun dried up 983.45 gallons of water from the 4078 gallons that were in the tank. How many gallons of water remain?
The correct answer is B: 5051.45.
Straightforward solution: Use long subtraction to arrive to 4078-983.45=3094.55. Ah, and you might as well pack your stuff, because test time is probably over.
Pick a trick: With this type of question, one must find ways to dismiss answer choices. Firstly, you can narrow the possible answer choices to B and C, since subtraction of 0.45 from a whole number will result in 0.55. Secondly, determine whether the correct answer is higher or lower than 3100, since this is the rounded up number close to both possibilities. Since it is lower than 3100 – mark B and move on.
Arithmetic Reasoning questions assess basic calculations and simple formulas while reading through passages. The most important key to success in this section is the ability to quickly build a formula with all the relevant data or use the answers to assess which applies to the data in the question.
Practice different answering methods while seeing hundreds of different questions in time restrictions in our All Inclusive ASVAB PrepPack.
Let’s continue to the first of two verbal sections of the ASVAB and AFQT – Word Knowledge.
With 15 questions to solve in 31 minutes (CAT-ASVAB) and 25 questions in 24 minutes (P&P ASVAB), you will have a minute or two for each question. That means solid control of mathematical formulas and quick calculations are keys to success. Let’s look at a few examples.
For any value of x, (x - 4)(x + 4) = ?
Wrong
Wrong
Wrong
Correct!
Wrong
The correct answer is D: x2 - 16
This is solved using the connection a2 - b2 = (a + b)(a - b).
Hence (x - 4)(x + 4) = x2 - 16.
If you do not remember the formula by heart this can also be solved by opening the brackets:
(x - 4)(x + 4) = x2 + 4x - 4x – 16 = x2 - 16
7.4 × 102 decimetres equal:
Wrong
Wrong
Correct!
Wrong
Wrong
The correct answer is C: 7,400 centimeters.
A decimetre is a tenth of a meter or ten centimeters.
7.4 × 102 = 740 (decimetres).
740 × 10 = 7,400 (centimetres).
If y=2x+3, what is the value of y when x = 5?
Wrong
Correct!
Wrong
Wrong
The correct answer is B: 13
Plugging in x = 5, we get y=2(5)+3=10+3=13.
The table is 90 cm long. What is the length of the table in metres?
Wrong
Wrong
Wrong
Correct!
The correct answer is D: 0.9
100 centimetres (cm) are 1 metre. Therefore, we should divide the length of the table in centimetres by 100 for the length in metres.
90 ÷ 100 = 0.9
As can be seen, Mathematical Knowledge assesses basic arithmetic operations, mathematical formulas, working with units of measurement, and more. With 16 questions in 20 minutes (CAT-ASVAB) and 25 questions in 24 minutes (P&P ASVAB) – you have about a minute for each question. That means solid control of mathematical formulas and quick calculations are keys to success. Mathematical questions are best improved by repetitive practice – and you can find many practice tests, simulations, and guides in our All Inclusive ASVAB PrepPack.
Next, we’ll cover another mathematical section –Arithmetic Reasoning. Approaching word problems that require calculations to succeed poses new challenges, different from those described in MK. Let’s continue!
This section of the test assesses your vocabulary and grammar skills. With 15 questions in 9 minutes (CAT-ASVAB) and 35 questions in 11 minutes (P&P ASVAB), the questions are clearly on a very narrow time frame.
HUNGRY is the opposite of:
Wrong
Correct!
Wrong
Wrong
The correct answer is B: Full.
Hungry is a word used to describe someone who has a desire for food, while full is a word used to describe someone whose appetite is satisfied.
The new program was sanctioned by the board of education.
You can replace the bold word with:
Wrong
Correct!
Wrong
Wrong
The correct answer is B: Authorized.
The word sanctioned has two meanings: (1) An action that has been given official approval (in this case, by the educational board), (2) The imposition of a sanction or a penalty.
Option B (authorized) adheres to the first meaning.
Which of the following is an antonym for "benevolent"?
Correct!
Wrong
Wrong
Wrong
The correct answer is A: Malevolent
"Benevolent" means showing kindness or goodwill. "Malevolent" means having or showing a wish to harm others, making it the antonym.
Vend most nearly means:
Wrong
Wrong
Correct!
Wrong
The correct answer is C: Peddle
Vend means to sell (you are probably familiar with vending machines which sell food or drinks). Peddle refers to people who sell by going from door to door, offering their goods. Thus, Peddle is close in meaning to vend.
The Word Knowledge section contains three types of questions: Synonyms, Antonyms, and Context. Reading, attempting to use different words in different contexts – and of course, specific, and broad practice is the key to success. Find hundreds of Work Knowledge questions with detailed explanations in our All Inclusive ASVAB PrepPack.
Let’s move on to the final section to be included in the AFQT score – another verbal section, Paragraph Comprehension. While WK assesses straightforward knowledge, PC assess your ability to understand, summarize and apply reason for short paragraphs of text.
With 10 questions in 27 minutes (CAT-ASVAB) and 15 questions in 13 minutes (P&P ASVAB, the questions may vary – as it is more possible that the questions in the P&P version may contain more than a single question per text – requiring less time to read and understand a new text.
Read the following passage:
The brain is our most complex organ, in terms of connections and microscopic structure. It is heterogeneous, with many areas and networks differing from one another in function. And, what is more, the brain is a ‘hidden entity’, embedded in an envelope made of bones, the skull. Brain imaging really came to age in medicine 40 years ago, thanks to computers. The technologies of structural anatomy like computerized tomography and magnetic resonance imaging have brought about a revolution in neurology by showing the lesion and its topography.
What is not true about the human brain?
Wrong
Wrong
Wrong
Correct!
The correct answer is D: The largest organ
Note that this question asks what is NOT found in the passage. Reviewing the features of the brain mentioned:
Heterogeneous (answer B), microscopic structure (A), and hidden entity (C) are all mentioned. Only the fact that it is our largest organ (D) isn't mentioned; so, this is the correct answer.
Read the following passage:
Pay television is now under threat, especially in America. Prices have been driven so high at a time of economic malaise that many people cannot afford it. Disruptive, deep-pocketed firms like Amazon and Netflix lurk, whispering promises of internet-delivered films and television shows for little or no money. It is unclear whether the lure of such alternatives or poverty is causing people to cancel their subscriptions. But the proportion of Americans who pay for TV is falling.
How many possible explanations are offered for pay-TV's fall?
Wrong
Wrong
Correct!
Wrong
The correct answer is C: Two
The passage offers two explanations for the decline of pay TV: the rise of internet-delivered films and television firms such as Netflix and Amazon and the high rate of subscriptions.
"The library is a place of learning. Beyond books, it offers resources like computers and classes to the community."

The paragraph mentions that the library offers resources like computers to the community.
Read the following passage:
Greece – the first EU country of entry for many thousands of asylum-seekers does not have – and has not had for several years – asylum-determination procedures or adequate reception conditions in line with international law. It has also not ensured that such asylum-seekers are treated with respect for their dignity on arrival. Many of those seeking international protection have been detained in horrendous conditions, then released and left to live destitute on the streets. Some have been removed from Greece despite the fact that such removal placed them at real risk of further grave human rights violations.
What did Greece's inadequate policies prevent from people on their arrival?
Correct!
Wrong
Wrong
Wrong
The correct answer is A: Basic international law rights
Many of those seeking international protection have been detained in horrendous conditions, then released and left to live destitute on the streets. Some have been removed from Greece despite the fact that such removal placed them at real risk of further grave human rights violations.

We will now continue to the additional five sections which are included in the composite score. Make sure to check in the above table which sections are relevant to your preferred position and begin your practice. We will start with General Science, which assesses your basic knowledge in various scientific fields.
General Science offers a broad overview of both the physical and biological sciences. With 15 questions in 12 minutes (CAT-ASVAB) and 25 questions in 11 minutes (P&P ASVAB) both versions provide 30 seconds or less for each question. Let’s dive in with a few example questions.
What does an amperemeter measure?
Wrong
Correct!
Wrong
Wrong
The correct answer is B: The current
An amperemeter measures amperes (A). Since the ampere measures current, the correct answer is B.
A ball thrown horizontally slows due to:
Wrong
Wrong
Wrong
Correct!
The correct answer is D: Friction
Mass: Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object or substance, typically expressed in units like kilograms or grams.
Gravity: Gravity is the natural force that attracts objects toward the center of the Earth or toward any other massive body.
Inertia: Inertia is an object's inherent resistance to changes in its state of motion or rest.
Friction: Friction is the force that opposes the motion of two surfaces sliding or trying to slide across each other.
Which of the following is NOT a mammal?
Wrong

Wrong
The correct answer is A: Iron
Iron is a key component of haemoglobin, a protein in red blood cells responsible for transporting oxygen throughout the body.
General Science questions vary and require vast, yet basic, knowledge in the physical, chemical, biological, and other common scientific fields. You can find many General Science questions with explanations in our All-Inclusive ASVAB PrepPack.
The next section, Mechanical Comprehension, includes mostly Physical subjects in basic mechanics. Unlike General Science – this section may include a large portion of calculative questions regarding common equations in mechanics. Let's continue.
Mechanical Comprehension delves into principles associated with simple machines, structural support, properties of materials, and mechanical motion. With 15 questions in 22 minutes (CAT-ASVAB) and 25 questions in 19 minutes (P&P ASVAB), you must have a great knowledge of the basic formulas and concepts to answer knowledge questions quickly and have enough time to calculate.
A hockey puck is sliding on an infinite plane of ice. The friction between the puck and the ice is zero, as well as the friction between the puck and the air. What will affect the time required for the hockey puck to come to a full stop?
Wrong
Wrong
Wrong
Correct!
The correct answer is D: Nothing, it will never stop.
With no friction, the puck is sliding with no forces applied to it apart from its weight. Since the direction of the weight is downwards, it will not affect the velocity which is perpendicular to it (the ice is a horizontal plane). With no other forces applied to the puck, it will never stop due to its inertia (its resistance to a change in its motion). According to inertia, the puck will slide forever without a decelerating force.
Observe the following diagram:
A perfectly smooth tube with a constant rate of flow of water is given. A segment of the tube with two pressure gauges attached is shown in the diagram below.
Which pressure gauge will indicate a higher value?
Wrong
Correct!
Wrong
Wrong
The correct answer is B: 2
Following Bernoulli's principle, in a steady flow of a fluid (with negligible compression due to pressure and negligible friction due to viscous forces - like water), we have the equation:
where P = pressure, ρgh = potential energy per volume, ½ρv2 = kinetic energy per volume.
Since the area of the tube's cross-section is unchanged throughout, and the rate of water flow is constant, we may conclude that the velocity of the water remains constant (Rate of flow = Velocity*Area). Thus, the kinetic energy remains constant throughout the tube.
The pressure gauges are situated at an identical height; therefore, their potential energy is equal. According to Bernoulli’s principle, the pressure at point 1 must be equal to the pressure at point 2.
A pulley system is used to:
Wrong
Wrong
Wrong
Correct!
The correct answer is D: Change the direction or magnitude of a force
Pulleys are mechanical devices that change the direction or magnitude of a force applied to a load.
Observe the following diagram:
When the following crate is slipping down the ramp, which of the following arrows describes the direction of the crate's friction?
Wrong
Wrong
Wrong
Correct!
The correct answer is D.
The force of friction is always in the opposite direction to the object's movement. Thus, when the crate is sliding downhill (A), the direction of the friction will be uphill (D).
Let's review the other arrows:
(A) represent a component of the crate's weight. This component acts as the motivating force that causes the crate to slide downhill.
(C) represents a component of the crate's weight, in the direction of gravity. Due to this force the crate adheres to the ramp's surface.
(B) represents a force called the normal force. This force is perpendicular to the surface and prevents the crate from penetrating into the surface. It is identical in size and opposite in direction to C.
Mechanical Comprehension questions may include either knowledge of basic rules and concepts in mechanics and physics or the ability to utilize them for calculations, like the second example. You can find a comprehensive Mechanics guide, questions, and detailed explanations in our All-Inclusive ASVAB PrepPack.
Next up is Electronics Information. Very similar to Mechanical Comprehension – it encompasses the electricity portion of physics in the ASVAB test. Concepts, knowledge, tools, and calculations must be performed in this section.
Electronics Information focuses on electronic systems and devices' fundamental principles and concepts. With 15 questions in 10 minutes (CAT-ASVAB) and 20 questions in 9 minutes (P&P ASVAB), your time frame is very narrow, and you must come to the test with broad knowledge of electricity concepts, as well as practice many calculation questions prior, and be able to perform them as quickly as possible.
In which direction does the electric current flow in an electric circuit?
Wrong
Correct!
Wrong
Wrong
The correct answer is B: From the positive to the negative terminal
Conventional current is designed to flow in the same direction as positive charges. In metals, where the charge carriers (electrons) are negative, conventional current flows in the opposite direction of the electrons. In conductors, where the charge carriers are positive, conventional current flows in the same direction as charge carriers.
Options C and D present the exact opposite of that reasoning.
In a common electrical wired circuit, negatively charged electrons flow from the negative terminal to the positive terminal. According to the above definition, the electric current flows in the oppo
Observe the following diagram:
A force of 10 N(Newton) compresses two identical springs in parallel for 8 cm. What will be the total distance that four identical springs in series are compressed?
Wrong
Wrong
Wrong
Correct!
The correct answer is D: 64 cm.
An external force exerted on a spring causes it to compress or extend.
The distance of compression or extension is directly and linearly proportional to the force exerted on the spring, i.e., doubling the force causes the spring to stretch or compress twice as much.
When identical springs are connected in parallel, the applied force is divided equally between them. Consider the image below:
Each of the two springs connected in parallel is subjected to a force of 5 N that compresses each spring by 8 cm (1). On the other hand, had only one spring been subjected to a 10N force, it would compress by 16 cm (2).
When identical springs are connected in series, each spring's entire force is applied separately. Consider the image below:
Each of the four springs in the series is subjected to a force of 10 N, and therefore resembles the case in image (2), compressing 16 cm. Thus, the total compression is the combined compression of all four springs: 4 X 16 cm = 64 cm.
A power supply outputs 15V at 3A. How much power does it deliver?
Wrong
Wrong
Correct!
Wrong
The correct answer is C: 45W
Power P=V × I = 15V × 3A = 45W.
Observe the following diagram:
What is the total capacitance in the circuit?
Wrong
Wrong
Correct!
Wrong
The correct answer is C: 8 μF
For capacitors in parallel,
Ct=C1+C2.
So, Ct=3+5=8 μF.

The next section comprises two subjects combined – Auto and Shop (in the CAT ASVAB they may be in two different sections – each is as short as half of a full section). The section tests knowledge of automobiles and workshops, which is on the one hand very specific, yet requires wide knowledge in those fields. Let's continue.
These sections, often combined as Auto & Shop Information in the paper-and-pencil version, assess knowledge and understanding of automobiles, tools, and shop terminology and practices. With 11 questions in 7 minutes for each individual section (CAT-ASVAB) and 25 questions in 11 minutes for the unified section (P&P ASVAB), you must be able to decide on each question quickly.

Auto and Shop questions require broad knowledge in both fields – which on the one hand, can be considered basic but, on the other, requires a lot of studying and practice. While there are few calculations, questions can be tricky and require you not to dwell too much on each question and be able to perform calculative guesses if required. You can find many Auto and Shop questions with explanations in our All-Inclusive ASVAB PrepPack.
The final section remaining on the ASVAB is Assembling Objects. The section is more like the first four sections – in the term that it does not test specific knowledge but abilities and skills. Visualizing and working with images and figures will require thorough yet quick work. Let's continue.
You will need to take the AFOQT Exam. We have got you covered with everything you will need to ace the test and get your dream job! Please check out our page on the test and learn more about it o our AFOQT Test PrepPack or study with sample questions with our Free AFOQT Practice.
