The Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB) is an optional timed multi-aptitude test developed and maintained by the Department of Defense that measures developed abilities and helps predict future academic and occupational success in the military and other career paths. This test will help you to discover your strengths and interests to map out a post-secondary plan. A passing score of 31 will meet the Math and/or ELA requirements for graduation. The ASVAB will be administered on one day only, Tuesday, February 7th. This test will be available for free to MGHS seniors who sign up on a first come first serve basis (limited spaces available). Registration is required. Students, please complete this form to request a spot at the scheduled testing date for the ASVAB.
