 A good reference for the ASVAB June 26, 2010

10 out of 18 found this review helpful
For all intent and purposes I bought this book to prep myself for the ASVAB. I had taken the ASVAB test twice in my life and they were years back when I was still in high school. I did not do so well in either tests because I lacked the math skills to even qualify to enter the military. I was so bummed out but I had to suck it up and move on with life. Years later I decided that now would be a good time to try that test again and I really want to do well. So what I didn't have in the past was preparation for the ASVAB, nor anyone to guide and help me prepare. I haven't taken the test yet nor have I gone to visit a recruiter but I have studied on and off on the arithmetic reasoning and the mathematics knowledge. I took the initial diagnostic test to find out my weaknesses and yep it was math again. It has the problems and the answers and explanations on how to solve the problem and get the right answers. Although, some explanations on the answers are vague and leave you to dig deeper to find out other hidden information on how to solve the problems. I had to use other accompanying math resources via the internet and worked back and forth to comparing and figuring out how to understand a certain skill. I suggest for those that are lacking on their math skills should take remedial classes and start from the basics and work your way up to understanding basic math concepts. I have access to an online math site called 'math foundation' I paid about $30 dollars for a 1 year subscription to take the math lessons. It has helped a lot to understand little bits and pieces of skill you need to solve problems without getting all worked up and confused when you read the vague explanations. So far it's a good prep book but I will put that to the test when I do take the ASVAB and will give an update on my results. Wish me luck as I wish all of you luck to have a great high score on the ASVAB!

Very informative book, but there are errors in the book that should not have been made.
