      It’s not pass/fail. They test you on a bunch of different things and give you a percentile score per section and a percentile score overall. They use that to determine eligibility and which jobs you’d qualify and be best suited for. When I joined 20 years ago, you’re not getting in with less than a 35, but it’s probably a higher minimum score now.

      It’s been factored into the analytics. They are looking for “compliant” personalities.

      Military recruitment tests are about finding the best soldiers NOT the brightest or most competent individuals.

      You WILL be put to work, citizen. Go ahead, get lower scores. Enjoy being cannon-fodder instead of controlling a drone from the safety of base camp. Draft dodger? Well…we have a special place for people like YOU.
