2M0X1 Missile and Space Systems Electronic Maintenance
Published ASVAB requirement for this Air Force enlisted specialty, copied from the official recruiting site. The number is a MAGE composite percentile, not an AFQT and not an Army line score.
M ≥ 55 and E ≥ 50
All composites named are required.

What this means
The page states: 55 Mechanical (M) and 50 Electronics (E)
.
Minimum MAGE composite as published on airforce.com; other requirements (age, citizenship, clearance, medical, training) are separate.
Meeting the composite minimum makes you score-eligible for classification into 2M0X1; it does not guarantee the job. Enlistment itself requires the Air Force's AFQT minimum, and assignment depends on medical, clearance, physical and training-seat factors your recruiter evaluates. The Air Force classification directory (DAFECD), which is the authoritative document, is published only behind a login, so this site can offer one official source rather than two; treat the figure as current as of the check date. Most recent Air Force recruits scored well above the AFQT floor (see the average ASVAB score).
Which ASVAB subtests count toward 2M0X1
2M0X1 is judged on 2 composites. The subtests below are quoted from ASVAB, airforce.com. The Air Force reports each composite as a percentile and does not publish the weights, so this site compares the value printed on your report rather than computing one.
AR + AS + MC + PC + WK
AR (Arithmetic Reasoning), AS (Auto and Shop Information), MC (Mechanical Comprehension), PC (Paragraph Comprehension), WK (Word Knowledge).
AR + EI + GS + MK
AR (Arithmetic Reasoning), EI (Electronics Information), GS (General Science), MK (Mathematics Knowledge).
If your score is below M ≥ 55 and E ≥ 50
Find the M and E percentile on your report and note the gap. Because the composites are percentiles, a few more correct answers on the subtests behind them can move the number by several points, most of all in the middle of the scale. MAGE composites and AFQT share the same 1–99 percentile scale; the score chart shows how percentiles group into categories.

A retest is subject to the official retest waiting periods; the Air Force page quotes 30 days before the second and third attempts. Practice results here are raw counts and never convert into a composite percentile.

Frequently asked questions
What ASVAB score do I need for 2M0X1 Missile and Space Systems Electronic Maintenance?
airforce.com publishes M ≥ 55 and E ≥ 50 for this specialty (the page reads: "55 Mechanical (M) and 50 Electronics (E)"). Every composite named must be met. Age, citizenship, clearance, medical and training requirements are separate.
Which ASVAB subtests count toward the M and E score?
M (Mechanical) is based on Arithmetic Reasoning, Auto and Shop Information, Mechanical Comprehension, Paragraph Comprehension, Word Knowledge. E (Electronics) is based on Arithmetic Reasoning, Electronics Information, General Science, Mathematics Knowledge. The Air Force reports each composite as a percentile; the weights are not published, so use the value printed on your report.
Is my AFQT enough for 2M0X1?
AFQT decides whether you can enlist in the Air Force at all; it is not used to qualify for a specialty. This job is judged on the MAGE composite in the rule above. A high AFQT with a low composite in the required area does not qualify.
Are there Maintenance and Logistics jobs with a lower requirement than 2M0X1?
Yes. Among the 32 Maintenance and Logistics specialties with a published minimum, 17 list a lower entry threshold than 2M0X1 and 13 list a higher one. A lower threshold in a different composite is not directly comparable.
Where does this 2M0X1 requirement come from?
From the "ASVAB Score Requirements" block on the Missile and Space Systems Electronic Maintenance page of airforce.com, the Air Force's official recruiting site, checked on 2026-09-17. The Air Force classification directory is published behind a login and was not available as a second source, so confirm the current figure with a recruiter.
