Title: What do i need to know
Post by: Sauteed milk on Feb 09, 2012, 02:09
ok i recently took the ASVAB and made a 91 and my line scores werent high enough so i took the NAPT and made a 64 (both with no studying) i know this isnt the best score but about where would i be in my class?
i'v suffered my whole school career from simple lack of motivation, never doing homework and "getting by" by simply doing well on tests...i am 19 (20 in april) and the biggest question i have is what all do i need to know and study before i ship out and what should i start studying, such as math, physics, chemistry, etc.

Learn to CAPITALIZE when appropriate.
Oh and learn to use the search function.

No point studying now. I'd figure out how to get motivated because with those kind of scores, you might have some long days and nights ahead.


Good luck

1st:  Either find a way to get motovated or forget it.

2nd: Learn to write not just text.

3rd: Related to 1st,  this is a big boy site, your questions have already been answered, i.e., there is a wealth of knowledge and answers to your questions.  But, you have to be motivated to look for them, not just ask the same questions!

I too suffered from the "lack of motivation" category. You are classic nuke. Scores and asvabs dont mean squat, do well in the program, then brag about it.

forget about studying, it wont help you with anything.
