The ASVAB: Armed Services Vocational Battery, Career Exploration Program:
It will be offered at WHS in the Fall & Spring in the College & Career Center. Sign ups prior are required.
The ASVAB is an aptitude test. It assesses strengths and helps predict success in a variety of careers, not only military occupations. Your child has no obligation to the military as a result of taking the ASVAB and participation is always voluntary.
About the Test…..The computer adaptive version of the test, CEP iCAT is tailored to the examinees ability level. All examinees begin the test with an item of average difficulty. If the examinee answers the first item correctly, the computer presents a harder item for question two. If the examinee answers item two incorrectly, the computer presents an easier item for question three. To summarize, CEP iCAT presents the best item for the individual. The best item is that which provides the most information about the examinees ability level.
The CEP iCAT consists of nine subtests, a total of 145 items. The CEP iCAT is self-paced and generally takes about 1.5 hours to complete. Because CEP iCAT tests are catered to each individual, extra time is allotted for each subtest.
