Now that you’re here… what now? 👇
Welcome to the community. You joined for a reason, and I want you to get results from day one. Here’s the exact “what to do next” playbook.
Step 1: Drop a quick intro (so we can help you)
Comment below with:
- Your ASVAB test date (or “not scheduled yet”)
- Your goal score (ex: 50, 65, 80+)
- What branch you’re thinking about (Army, Air Force, etc.)
- Your weakest area right now (Math, Word Knowledge, Paragraph Comprehension, etc.)
This isn’t just to be social. It helps people point you to the right material and keeps you accountable.
Step 2: Get a baseline score (even if you’re nervous)
Take the practice test / diagnostic.
A baseline does two things:
- Shows where you’re leaking points
- Stops you from wasting time studying the wrong stuff
If you don’t know your baseline, you’ll usually overstudy what you’re already good at and ignore what actually moves your score.
Step 3: Choose your “Big 2” weak spots
Most people don’t need to study everything at once. Pick two areas for the next 7 days.
Examples:
- Word Knowledge + Paragraph Comprehension (huge for AFQT)
- Arithmetic Reasoning + Math Knowledge (big score movers)
- Mechanical + Auto/Shop (if you’re chasing certain line scores/jobs)
Pick two. Commit. You’ll build momentum fast.
Step 4: Set a simple weekly schedule (no overthinking)
Here’s a realistic plan you can stick to:
5 days/week (20–30 min/day)
- 10 min: learn (notes, explanations, short lessons)
- 10–15 min: practice questions
- 5 min: review mistakes and write what you missed
2 days/week
- Light review + a mini-quiz
- Or take a timed section to build speed
You don’t need 2-hour study sessions. You need reps.
Step 5: Use the “mistake list” method (this is the cheat code)
Every wrong answer goes on a list:
- What was the question testing?
- Why did I miss it?
- What’s the correct way to do it?
Then revisit that list every few days. Your score jumps when your mistakes stop repeating.
Step 6: Learn how to take the test, not just study
A lot of people know the material but lose points because of timing and stress.
Quick rules:
- Don’t marry a question. If you’re stuck, move.
- Eliminate obvious wrong answers first.
- Practice timed sections so test day feels normal.
- Sleep and food matter more than people admit.
Step 7: Use this community the right way
This community works if you use it like a gym:
- Post your goal and check in weekly
- Ask questions when you get stuck (someone else is stuck too)
- If you want a study partner, say your time zone and schedule
- Celebrate wins, even small ones (momentum is everything)
Step 8: If you want my help, give me these 3 things
Reply with:
- Test date
- Goal score
- Weakest area
And I’ll tell you exactly what to focus on first.
