Guess i have to be the one to say it :esad:

86/99 is your score yes, but that is mainly for the english/math sections. You are also scored on different topics like electrical and mechanical. You need to find those scores as well as some jobs in the military require a high score in these areas in addition to your main score.

For example, i got a 97/99 when i went in for my ASVAB but only an 88? or something on the mechanical section. I think there was one job that excluded me from picking.

I'm not sure if you took the ASVAB at your school? Maybe they didn't include those sections, but it's something you need to consider and often more vital than the "score" they give you.

My overall score was an 86, my percentile for mechanical was a 9 :esad:

MY English was a 99 percentile though

but yea, I had like 8 or something different tests if that's what you wondering about. But you do get an overall score, I assume you get the same score sheet as I did, it's in the lower left hand corner under the rest of the sections. It should say overall score down there

I have no idea what the sheet looks like this was over a year ago, I just know my job for example requires a 70+ on the electrical score in addition to the overall, it's something you need to keep in mind when trying to select an AFSC.

what branch are you joining?

My MOS is either assistant chaplain, cav scout, combat diver, or military intelligence. And apparently (according to my recruiter) I meet the requirements for all 4

Ok, well maybe different branches have different rules regarding the asvab. Considering I got a 9 on the mechanical part, I suppose they would let me not be a mechanic.
