CMF 25 Signal: Army jobs by ASVAB score

Communications networks, satellite, radio and IT systems. This site lists 5 Signal MOS entries, each verified against the official Army specification. Every threshold below is a line score minimum, not an AFQT percentile.

Signal jobs ranked by ASVAB threshold

Ordered by the lowest score that satisfies each rule; for OR rules the easier path is used. Thresholds in different line scores are not directly comparable. Open any MOS for its subtests, gap guidance and alternatives.

Line scores behind Signal jobs

The subtests shown are the Army's nominal definition of each aptitude area from DA PAM 611-21, Military Occupational Classification and Structure, Table 10-1 (ASVAB aptitude area composites). The reported score is computed on the 1997 scale as a weighted sum of seven standard scores (DMDC 2004, Table 2.7), which can give weight to subtests outside the nominal list; GT is the exception and equals AR + VE exactly. Improving a subtest therefore raises several composites at once. The Army score guide explains each line score; use the line score on your report, or compute it from your standard scores.

Preparing for a Signal job

Practice on this site: GS (General Science), AR (Arithmetic Reasoning), MK (Mathematics Knowledge), EI (Electronics Information), WK (Word Knowledge), PC (Paragraph Comprehension), MC (Mechanical Comprehension), AS (Auto and Shop Information) feed the EL, ST, GT, SC scores used in this field. Start a GS, AR, MK, EI, WK, PC, MC, AS practice set →

Practice scores are raw counts and never convert into an official line score. Enter the line scores from your ASVAB report in the score checker to compare against every verified job at once.

Frequently asked questions

What is the lowest ASVAB score for a Signal job in the Army?

Among the 5 currently verified CMF 25 entries on this site, the lowest entry threshold is ST ≥ 95 for 25B Information Technology Specialist. The highest is EL ≥ 107 for 25S Satellite Communication Systems Operator-Maintainer. Each figure is a minimum line score, not an AFQT percentile.

Which ASVAB line scores do Signal jobs use?

EL (Electronics, GS + AR + MK + EI) is required by 3 jobs; ST (Skilled Technical, GS + VE (verbal: WK and PC) + MK + MC) is required by 2 jobs; GT (General Technical, VE (verbal: WK and PC) + AR) is required by 2 jobs; SC (Surveillance and Communications, VE (verbal: WK and PC) + AR + AS + MC) is required by 1 job. The line score on your ASVAB report is the number to compare.

Does meeting the ASVAB threshold guarantee a Signal MOS?

No. The threshold is only the score condition from the Army MOS specification. Physical (OPAT), medical, security clearance, training-seat availability and component eligibility are decided separately by the Army and your recruiter.
