You don't write like you have a bachelor's degree.
How is one supposed to write, with a bachelors degree

There is an entire section dedicated to the OAR/ASTB look there for guidance on how to improve your score.
At the end of the day either you get a qualifying score to apply or you don't and move on to something else.

Ok thank you

With the sort of attention to detail that suggests you can be trusted with a $100M aircraft or a team of sailors.

I don’t mean to rude, but obviously that’s a really low score. When did you finish your degree?
The OAR is adaptive, so I’d suggest reading the other threads and focus on studying math and physics.
do mo gooder?
@BarthowKuma It sounds like you were ill prepared for the ASTB.
How much did you study? What did you study? What is your degree in? What officer program are you applying for?
The ASTB sub has a plethora of information on what and how to study.
You have a month to kick it into high gear and prep for your next test. OBTW, you only have 3 chances to pass the ASTB. After that, you are done.
So my advice, is to STUDY YOUR ASS OFF like it's your only mission. You may consider waiting 2 months or more to take your second test.
On the surface, a 30 on your OAR tells me that you're lacking in math, reading comprehension, or mechanical comprehension. Maybe hiring a tutor is not out of the question.
STUDY, STUDY, STUDY.....good luck.

Search "Organic Chemistry" YouTube channel, it has a lot of the math and mechanical comprehension sections that the guy goes over in depth step by step equations. The channel is tailored to SAT/ACT, any college related math etc. This will help with the "OAR" when you do these problems make sure you understand the problem not just to solve one time. All though air warriors has a section dedicated for astb, you have internet at your disposal mainly especially YouTube. If you found yourself guessing on most of math and mechanical comprehension study the topics that you were un sure of.
