ADF Aptitude Test Tips

[@defenceready]

Patrick Floreani Our practise online quiz reflects the type and difficulty of question you are likely to face in your actual YOU session. It is your score in this YOU session that determines which jobs are open to you.

[@jism1125]

I remember in 2007 when I did the test and the instructor said 100,000 people applied and only 3,000 got in

That's right on one account it is an overwhelming silence because your surroundings have no intention of circulating the aura which is around you, nervousness realisation that you've come to the end of what you truly want and it's that fear which created anxiety, I know because I felt it five years ago.

To join the army specifically infantry will there be math questions and are they hard

Is there a time limit on the day of the YOU session for the Aptitude teat?

[@defenceready]

Hi Felix, as far as we are currently aware, the test is approximately 75 questions in 30 minutes, however this is always subject to change.

[@gezman4613]

Hey I got 78% on the free sample test thank you. May I please have extra tips to improve

[@gabrielledavis4989]

Hey :-) would you know if every question has the same value towards your test score? in case you get stuck and want to skip in favour of tackling more questions.

[@defenceready]

Gabrielle Davis Rather than having an actual 'score' value, the questions you answer determine the positions open to you, so you can first focus on answering questions you feel confident about, then attempt the remaining questions if you have time.

hi, where can I find aptitude test that you are providing. thx

[@chase800]

Would you recommend me completing year 11 and 12 or do a course that will prepare me

[@defenceready]

Chase The minimum entry-level requirement is that you have passed Year 10 English and Maths . Recruiting can likely best advise further on Year 11 and 12 as although we provide preparation resources for the entrance testing for the Australian Defence Force (ADF), we are not affiliated in any way with the actual recruiting process, our resources are purely designed to assist you with the tests.

hello do you have any test papers on the NZDF aptitude test as I failed the verbal reasoning and the abstract reasoning too. I have practice the test papers on the NZDF but I need more test papers to practice to improve

Hey there, I have the ADF aptitude test app and have been doing practices for awhile now. My problem is I’m too scared of failure because the outcome means so much to me. Any tips?

[@defenceready]

Trent Simpson Use the skill finder test to find out your weaker areas and focus more time on those. Ultimately practise is the key, the more you practise the easier it will be to recognise and correctly answer the questions. .

Heyy I'm just wondering on what the passing score is for 75 GAT questions and 25 MAT question testing for the adf as i want to unlock the combat and security category. i'm going through a course thats running me through what i need to know on the day, and so far im getting above 65% on certain units. but im just unsure on how many answers that are right will be enough to be a passing mark and that will get my foot in the door for job lists. Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again.

[@defenceready]

TehPezzar - ADF don't publish any actual pass marks, rather it is the scores you obtain that open up the jobs available to you. So to ensure you get the position you want you need to score as highly as possible.
