CMF 79 Recruiting and Retention: Army jobs by ASVAB score
Recruiting and retention operations across the Active Component, Reserve and National Guard. This site lists 3 Recruiting and Retention MOS entries, each verified against the official Army specification. Every threshold below is a line score minimum, not an AFQT percentile.
GT
One aptitude area decides every job in this field.
Recruiting and Retention jobs ranked by ASVAB threshold
Ordered by the lowest score that satisfies each rule; for OR rules the easier path is used. Thresholds in different line scores are not directly comparable. Open any MOS for its subtests, gap guidance and alternatives.
Line scores behind Recruiting and Retention jobs
The subtests shown are the Army's nominal definition of each aptitude area from DA PAM 611-21, Military Occupational Classification and Structure, Table 10-1 (ASVAB aptitude area composites). The reported score is computed on the 1997 scale as a weighted sum of seven standard scores (DMDC 2004, Table 2.7), which can give weight to subtests outside the nominal list; GT is the exception and equals AR + VE exactly. Improving a subtest therefore raises several composites at once. The Army score guide explains each line score; use the line score on your report, or compute it from your standard scores.
VE (verbal: WK and PC) + AR
