Air Force Officer Qualifying Test (AFOQT)

Sample Test

All Air Force officer candidates must pass the AFOQT. The AFOQT is a standardized multiple choice test similar to the SAT, with additional sections for pilot and navigator aptitude testing. It takes about 4.5 hours to complete the test.
It's scored in 5 areas. You will receive a score, based on percentile for each area (0-99):

Pilot (Requirements for pilot candidates shown below)

Navigator (Requirements for navigator candidates shown below)

Verbal (All candidates must achieve a minimum score of 15)

Quantitative (All candidates must achieve a minimum score of 10)

Academic Aptitude (No minimum score required)

You may take the AFOQT only twice. You must wait 180 days between tests.
The latest score counts; not necessarily the best.
