    EXCELLENT BOOK

    Recommended to me by my recruiter 2 weeks before I was scheduled to take the ASVAB . Not only did I pass , I passed with higher than I ever thought I would get . I greatly recommend this study guide to anyone even considering doing the test ( esp more than a year out of high school ) ! Good Luck !
