AFOQT TEST PREP ONLINE COURSE AND TUTORING

What is the AFOQT?

The Air Force Officer Qualifying Test (AFOQT) is a standardized exam designed to measure key aptitudes such as perceptual speed, spatial rotation, verbal reasoning, and aviation knowledge.

It is used to select applicants for officer commissioning programs like the Officer Training School (OTS) and the Air Force Reserve Officer Training Corps (AFROTC).
The AFOQT also helps determine eligibility for Pilot, Combat Systems Officer (CSO), and Air Battle Manager (ABM) training and contributes to a candidate’s Pilot Candidate Selection Method (PCSM) score.

AFOQT composite scores help determine eligibility for Pilot, Combat Systems Officer and Air Battle Manager training. For pilot applicants, the AFOQT Pilot composite also contributes to the Pilot Candidate Selection Method score.

All cadets and students on scholarship or enrolled in the Professional Officer Course (POC) are required to take the AFOQT.

Current AFOQT Minimum Commissioning and Rated Composite Scores

The Department of the Air Force requires minimum Verbal and Quantitative composite scores for line-officer commissioning. Applicants seeking Pilot, Combat Systems Officer, or Air Battle Manager training must also meet the minimum requirement for the applicable rated composite.
 

Application type	Minimum Score
General line-officer commissioning	Verbal 15
	Quantitative 10
Pilot training, including RPA pilot	Verbal 15
	Quantitative 10
	Pilot 25
Combat Systems Officer (CSO)	Verbal 15
	Quantitative 10
	CSO 25
Air Battle Manager	Verbal 15
	Quantitative 10
	ABM 25

Note:

• These are minimum qualifying scores, not necessarily competitive selection scores. Selection boards consider AFOQT scores together with other eligibility and application factors.
   
• Pilot and RPA pilot applicants must meet separate Pilot Candidate Selection Method requirements. The current DAF manual lists a minimum PCSM score of 10 for pilot selection boards.
   
• Requirements, waiver policies, and additional standards may vary by commissioning source and program. Applicants should confirm current requirements with their recruiter, education office, or commissioning program.
