    Frequently Asked Questions

    What the exam actually looks like, and what this simulator does.

    The PiCAT is administered by the U.S. Department of Defense. It is a 135-item, four-option multiple-choice exam. It is administered untimed.

    Computer-adaptive delivery of 135 items: 135 scored, with no unscored tryout items. There is no clock. Forward-only — you cannot return to an earlier item.

    The subtests are: General Science (15 items), Arithmetic Reasoning (15 items), Word Knowledge (15 items), Paragraph Comprehension (10 items), Mathematics Knowledge (15 items), Electronics Information (15 items), Auto Information (10 items), Shop Information (10 items), Mechanical Comprehension (15 items), Assembling Objects (15 items). The Department of Defense publishes no domain weightings for the ASVAB. Our forms follow the published subtest structure instead.

    Yes. The PiCAT is delivered as a computer-adaptive test, so the items you see depend on your answers.

    Check the U.S. Department of Defense's current guidance for testing locations, online proctoring availability, and calculator policy.
