I scored high enough for intelligence jobs and I barely graduated high school. That should tell you something.

I scored almost perfect composite on this test in high school with no preparation. Think my composite was 97 or something. Its not very hard.

Anyway, huge mistake. Fucking recruiters at my house after school every damn day.

Haha, same here. There was a Navy recruiter trying to get me to go into their nuclear engineering program to design subs for the Navy. He left me alone after I informed him they didn't want me designing them due to ideas I'd have a bout a melt down button in the crew quarters to keep management in line.

So yea, don't take the ASVAB unless you are seriously interested in going into the military chances are you'll score pretty high and have recruiters contacting you all the time.

Yeah, I got a perfect score for the first several tests, and the only one I didn't get a 99 on was the one that had questions like, "Which one of these is a roofing nail?" I had the same thing, every single military recruiter hounded the crap out of me, INCLUDING the Coast Guard.

I still have recruiters calling me occasionally, even showing up at my house, after being discharged from the Army. Annoying little fucks.

I had a recruiter call me some months ago asking "if I wanted to know and work with top secret information for the US government?" I asked him how he would even begin to know what I'm capable of and why he is interested in me. He tells me that I'm enrolled in programming class at my college. I told him no thanks and hung up. It kinda irked me out. The week before I got an unmarked letter showing all the shit I downloaded this one day. It showed what file I saved the .iso too, what protocol, and what IPs where involved. Ever since then been all like wtf big brother ect.

I can't beat 780, but I did get a 770. Also got a 730 on the Verbal on the SAT, for an aggregate 1500. Do you beat THAT? heh.

Me too Minrott.

Math destroyed me though, wouldve been 30s. Think I scored a 21 in Math.

Reading comprehension got a 36 though. Those are the only two I remember, lowest and highest.

I think I was 27 math and 32 reading? Either way.

There were two guys that took it in my rotation that got 36 composites. 1 was the valedictorian of my class the other was a homeschooled kid 2 years younger. I've yet to realize how a person could be such a wealth of knowledge and yet be so socially inept as that guy. He probably makes twice what I do now though so social skills be damned.
