It's ASVAB.
Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery.

It's the test people take if they intend to enter the military.
It's used mostly to determine whether you're qualified to enlist, but also, to an extent, to determine your vocational aptitude, which means which MOS (military occupational specialty, or job) would be suited to your skill set.

If you enlisted, you would take more tests later at boot camp in order to further determine a suitable MOS.

The ASVAB will test basic English, math, and science skills, as well as what is called Spatial Relations (visualizing folded and unfolded boxes in various shapes). It also has sections intended to measure your potential for mechanical, automotive, and electrical careers.

You don't have to take it unless you're planning to enlist. If you are planning to enlist, your recruiter will schedule the test for you.

Other groups also use the ASVAB to help young people figure out what their skills are, in order to help them decide which type of career to pursue.

I might say it is extra like a C+ than a B+. You handed the examination however now not with flying colours. There is continuously room for benefit, specially on the grounds that the composite ranking from the ASVAB will develop your offerings for a MOS. Good good fortune and Semper Fi.
