ASVAB
     The ASVAB is given during the month of October to the Junior class. The ASVAB measures developed abilities and helps predict future academic and occupational success. Your child doesn't have to go through any lengthy preparation to take the ASVAB. As with other tests, how much they have learned will probably make the most difference in their results.  You can explore more information about the ASVAB through their website: https://www.asvabprogram.com/
 
The ASVAB is given on the computer. The computer adaptive version of the test, CEP iCAT is tailored to the examinees ability level. All examinees begin the test with an item of average difficulty. If the examinee answers the first item correctly, the computer presents a harder item for question two. If the examinee answers item two incorrectly, the computer presents an easier item for question three. To summarize, CEP iCAT presents the best item for the individual. The best item is that which provides the most information about the examinees ability level.  The CEP iCAT consists of nine subtests, a total of 145 items. The CEP iCAT is self-paced and generally takes about 1.5 hours to complete. Because CEP iCAT tests are catered to each individual, extra time is allotted for each subtest.
