Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB) is a multipurpose skills assessment. Students may elect to take the ASVAB if they are:
- Interested in serving in the Military after high school
- Interested in career exploration based on a skills and interest assessment
- To complete the ASVAB High School Graduation Pathway
The exam is open to students in grades 10-12. Scores from Grades 11-12 are eligible for military entrance. The exam may be taken more than once, a student's most recent test score is utilized for military entrance.
Bainbridge High School hosts the ASVAB exam twice a year, typically in November and March. The exam is in two parts; the main testing day takes between 1.5hrs - 3hrs to complete and begins at 8:45a. Then a follow-up session is held approximately two weeks later, where students receive their scores and complete a career exploration activity and their career options and results are explained.
*ASVAB Scores are only released to the military if students elect to do so. The school does not release any score information to recruiters. Career exploration provides non-military career options as well as military career options.
