Military Flight Aptitude Tests (3rd ed) Paperback – November 1, 1997

Great product :)

Passed my AFOQT with flying colors

First off, I scored 91st percentile on the Pilot composite, 96th on Navigator, 97th on Quantitative, 98th on Verbal, and 98th on Academic. With that out of the way...This book and 'Officer Candidate Tests', also by Solomon Wiener, were both quite helpful to me as I prepared for the AFOQT, but really only because of the sample tests. The two books share some of the same questions but 95% of the questions are unique, and I thought that they were rather similar to the actual test with the exception of the Table Reading subtest. Be warned that there are several mistakes in the book, especially the Block Counting subtest where several of the questions don't even have the right number of blocks as a choice, but if you make a point to double check all of the answers you missed, you should be able to figure out whether you or the book are correct.I strongly recommend that you take the full sample test under timed conditions, it will give you a very good idea how you'll do on the real AFOQT. And when you sit for the test, especially the Block Counting and Table Reading subtests, try to be careful: it's easy to mark the wrong box and not realize it for several more questions, totally messing up that test. That's actually what 'ruined' my pilot score. Ignore the AFOQT answer sheet in the book, the actual test just has one sheet with all the little circles you fill in just like the SAT.Having taken the sample tests beforehand, if nothing else, made me feel much more relaxed going into the test. If you can do well on the samples, you'll be fine on the real AFOQT. If you're going in for a technical position, I strongly recommend you go through the other book mentioned at the top of this review as well, as it focuses on the 6 subtests that are supposed to really matter for you, and I think the tests in that one were harder than this book. Wouldn't hurt you would-be fly-boys either.I strongly recommend this book if you are at all nervous about the AFOQT as it will help build some confidence before you take the real thing, but I only give it 4 stars because of the numerous mistakes in the answer section. Just double check all your answers and you'll be fine.

I thought the book was very helpful, but the math section needs to be greatly expanded. The test is much more comprehensive and I feel I could have done better with a more in-depth study guide.

I recently purchased this wonderful guide in preparation for the Air Force Officer's Qualifying Test (AFOQT). It provided me all the necessary information to ace the test. In fact, I scored an amazing 96 out of a possible 99 on the pilot composite. Remember, 50 is a very good score! Highly recommended for anyone interested in being accepted to military pilot training.
