Editorial Review: Product Description: U.S. Air Force officer candidates, ROTC cadets, and others preparing to take military flight aptitude tests will find the information theyre looking for in this manual. Theyll also find six full-length practice tests with answers and explanations for all questions. That total gives applicants more practice tests than any other flight aptitude manual on the market. The tests are as follows: two practice AFOQT (Air Force Officer Qualifying Tests); two practice AFAST (Army Alternate Flight Aptitude Selection Tests); and two practice ASTB (Navy/Marine Corps/Coast Guard Aviation Selection Test Batteries). This manual also provides general descriptions and overviews of all three tests, plus practice and review questions in all test topics. The topics include language comprehension, mathematics, mechanical comprehension, aviation information, nautical information, general science, and specific mental skills such as block counting, finding hidden figures and complex movements, cyclic orientation, and spatial apperception. The author also gives practical advice on effective study techniques, how to find information resources, and physical preparation. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - I found out too late...I bought this study guide and most of the answers once researched are wrong. Completely frustrated that I spent money on this book. Rating:  - #1 book I could recommendI definitely recommend this book to anyone who is preparing to take the AFOQT. I study this book along with the 2005 Arco book and I passed on my first try. This book is right on, and the vocabulary words they give in here are very useful. Rating: - Only as a Last ResortI'm a bit disappointed with this study guide. I've been studying it specifically for the AFAST and have found several errors in it. I was starting to think I was an idiot when upon further research I discovered that some of the answers in the practice exams are incorrect. As far as explanation of answers I wouldn't say it's great. Some of the questions are more in depth and the pictures are definitely a bit more clear than the ARCO study guide. Other than that, I wouldn't recommend purchasing this ... Read More Rating:  - for AFOQT buy Barron'sIf you are taking the AFOQT buy the Barron's study book. I just took the test (Feb 2008) and the Barron's practice exams are spot on. The only difference from the practice exam in Barron's and the real thing is that in the Table Reading section, it is one giant "x and y" table on the real test, but don't worry, if you prepare by using the table section in Barron's you should do fine. The AFOQT has been changed since the publication of the ARCO and Cliffprep books, the current exam consists of 12 parts ... Read More Rating: - Great Test Prep Book--Very HelpfulThis book is the best one out there to help prepare for any service's flight aptitude test! It's the most up to date and it has really helpful review info and problems. The best part is that the answers to the practice tests are explained thoroughly. I found a few typos, but the publisher says they have been corrected in the most recent reprint--apparently it's been selling very well. Recommend it highly!
