I want to practice the audio cue training on the Jantzen sim but it doesn't seem to work. Did anyone else have trouble?

For example it will say 1/4 cues correct regardless if I try to do anything or not. The emergency sim works great though.

Don't worry about what score it displays. Just get your reps in; you'll know if you got it wrong or right

Does anyone know if this is a good study guide and practice test? Is it similar to what someone might see on the real test?

Specifically, the Jantzen Sim scores dichotic listening wrong - on the real test, you’re either triggering or clutching for odd or even (forget which one it is) and the only thing that changes is which ear you’re listening for odd or even in. The Jantzen adds additional rules that don’t apply in the real test. So ignore its scoring and just do it the way the test does it to build muscle memory.

I took my ASTB a while ago and was just looking at my scores, I'm about to submit (im currently enlisted) and wondering if they are good enough. I have a 5/7/6 with a 53 and a 3.8 GPA. I think they should be strong enough but im considering retaking (this would be my 3rd and final retake though) Please do advise.

I think I would submit with those scores. If you don't get selected, then perhaps retake.

Still going to study and whatnot though, I want to be safe in case of not getting selected.

You are correct.

Anyone who took the ASTB test who used the ASTB app Rear cockpit sim to practice, if you passed, What was your consistent locked on percentage? Trying to find a number to shoot for. I’m currently around 25-30% everytime with 80-100 listening.

Consistently 45%+, I think my record was 51%. I scored 7/9/8.

Should I be using the rear cockpit sim to practice too, or is just doing the Jantzen sim fine?
