Learn about the ASVAB in depth
The Army is the least restrictive branch of the military when it comes to AFQT scores. The minimum score necessary for enlistment in the Army is 31 whether you have a high school diploma or a GED. Waivers are available for scores as low as 26 depending on the current recruiting requirements.
If you do not meet the minimum score requirements there is a Retest Policy in place. The Army allows retesting pending the following circumstances:
- The applicant's previous ASVAB test has expired (text scores expire after two years).
- The applicant did not achieve a score that was high enough to qualify for enlistment.
- Under unusual circumstances such as those that prevent an applicant from completing the test (but not for illness - applicants are told not to take the test if they are ill).
