ASVAB G Score
General (Air Force)
What G Measures
The Air Force G composite is mathematically identical to the Army GT score. It gates access to Air Force and Space Force jobs that require strong verbal and arithmetic aptitude — administrative, legal, public affairs, intelligence, and officer development programs. The MAGE system (Mechanical, Administrative, General, Electrical) replaces the Army's more numerous composites with four broad categories.
G measures general cognitive ability — can you read instructions accurately and perform arithmetic reliably? These are universal job requirements across virtually every technical and administrative AFSC.

How to Improve Your G Score
Subtests ranked by impact on your G score. Improving the top-ranked subtest first maximizes cross-composite benefit.
VE is in G — same multiplier as for Army GT.
High leverage because VE feeds G, A, and every VE-dependent composite.
The non-VE component. Word problems at the 1–2 step arithmetic level.
