Thanks. That is good to know.I was not the best at it on the test and app and I got a 8 for FOFAR still. I would just practice your UAV and that will carry you.
What I did was make a compass rose with 8 points, so N NE E SE etc. Then find a straight identifiable feature on the right, zoomed in side, and then find it on your left hand map. Use your compass rose to find the direction that straight line feature is pointing on the left hand side, and then line it up on your right hand side. From there, you should be able to easily tell what direction is pointing "up". I was very easily getting 100% using that method, and I am fairly certain I did not miss a single one on the exam. I think there was around 25 problems on the exam, I can't remember the exact number. LMK if you have further questions.Does anyone know any tricks for Terrain Identification? I keep scoring between 60%-90% on the ASTB prep app. I also think some of those answers might be wrong on there, but I am not sure if that is just me or not.
This is basically what I ended up doing. If you do it right, it will always give you the right answer.What I did was make a compass rose with 8 points, so N NE E SE etc. Then find a straight identifiable feature on the right, zoomed in side, and then find it on your left hand map.

I am no expert by any means, but those are DECENT scores. I’ve seen some get in with lower. That’s pretty competitive as far as PFAR and FOFAR scores are concerned. If you wanna have more of a chance, obviously reach for the stars and go for those higher scores but I feel like those are really good scores. Avg is 7/7/7 for navy SNAHello! Scored 55 6/9/7 and wondering if it's worth a retake for considering SNA/NFO.. Not sure what's considered competitive or not.
9 PFAR is really good, 7 FOFAR is also pretty decent. I'd sit on those tbhHello! Scored 55 6/9/7 and wondering if it's worth a retake for considering SNA/NFO.. Not sure what's considered competitive or not.
I would submit with these scores. 9 PFAR is will boost your SNA chances quite a bit. If you apply a couple times and don't get accepted, then I'd consider retesting.Hello! Scored 55 6/9/7 and wondering if it's worth a retake for considering SNA/NFO.. Not sure what's considered competitive or not.
7/7/7 and above is automatic select9 PFAR is really good, 7 FOFAR is also pretty decent. I'd sit on those tbh
If you meet the other criteria too. If not, a 9 PFAR is pretty dang good7/7/7 and above is automatic select
Great job on the PFAR, submit for either SNA or SNFO, too often if you submit for both a person gets SNFO when they wanted SNA, it is unusual to see that combination of score though lol.Hello!

The average is not 7/7/7 that is for autoselect, the average scores for selection are different for SNA and SNFO with SNA the most competitive with PFAR of almost 8.I am no expert by any means, but those are DECENT scores.

He can't get better than 9 and the only thing that matters if going for SNA is that PFAR score and a qualifying AQR score which he has.I would submit with these scores. 9 PFAR is will boost your SNA chances quite a bit. If you apply a couple times and don't get accepted, then I'd consider retesting.
