1,001 questions about the ASTB (post your scores & ask your questions here!)

Is the 30-day ASTB merge score deadline hard? I didn't know there even was such a deadline when I took the OAR 3 months ago, and now I'm considering SNA/SNFO... scored a 70 on the OAR but had to do quite a bit of prep, and I doubt I'll be able to replicate the score.

Yes, it’s clearly defined in the SECNAVINST. If over 30 days you must retake the whole exam again.

 
Hey y’all, my I-SEL packet was submitted early December, and I have yet to hear back from my recruiter. Does anybody know the average wait time for immediate select, and why it’s taking this long? I heard it’s on a rolling basis & the holiday break could have delayed it, but
I’m growing a little anxious. There’s a lot of life changes happening, and a secured date would help a lot right now.

Thanks in advance!

Sometimes the ISEL process isn’t immediate, especially if it’s for a closed program.

My package got submitted November 23rd and heard back January 8th. I was feeling the exact same way and my mom was asking me every day if I’d heard back lol. Hopefully you get word soon!
 
Just finished my second attempt of ASTB. First try got 3/5/4, second attempt 4/6/5. Minimum scores I would assume based off previous boards on the spreadsheet. Should I submit these scores and just see or retake even though it’s the last. Going for NFO.

If you submit that youre getting denied and you'll have to wait 6 months to apply again. Id retake.

How much did you study for your 2nd try and what resources did you use?

Took it last Feb, hard study march-mid April. May-July had some personal issues but would still study for at least a hour or two. Hard study aug-Jan. I used both ASTB prep app and tutoring app. A little of the Gomez kit. The math is what I know for a fact I need to practice. I was familiar with a lot of the problems on the ASTB.

What were your scores on the ASTB prep app for math? And the performance test? I’m just hoping the app doesn’t give false confidence

I was getting like 50%-53% but once I started getting the hang of the problems I started getting 70%-76% occasionally 86-85%. The tutoring app helped more with deciphering word problems, the prep app helps more with random questions on a time scale but I did feel like they repeated.

Nice, but what about the ANIT you were getting 85% on that and still couldn’t lock in 7’s?
