Umm, there ARE three distinct versions of the ASVAB, and if I'm not mistaken, only Navy has a coding portion to it (though I could be wrong). Also, the CAT (Computerized Adaptive Testing) ASVAB means just that, it adapts based on the question you answer. On top of that, you can't go back to change your answer, which is an on the spot deal test. No, nothing the Navy does is "harder" than anyone else, everyone gets paid the same and the strongest link in a chain is your weakest one, etc, of course, everyone knows that, after all, we are all on the same team. The other two versions are the MET-site ASVAB and the Student ASVAB. Plus, it wasn't a "fellow sailor" who told me that, it was the person who administered the test in MEPS. No, he was not Navy, he was Army (R) and the other guy was Marine (R), so I don't believe their opinion (because it was just that, an opinion) was biased.
