However, some locations don't follow that rule, including the MEPS that serviced my area up until a few months ago. Junior , Jan 27, At about the 4. If you can take it later, it's probably not a bad idea. MEPS is tiring, much better to be well rested.
Stupendoussteve , Jan 27, Ahhh, the answers are reassuring. Thanks for the info. My recruiter has been telling me its on a different day after I swear in. I feel like he's been pretty upfront, but there's always that fear he's just chalking up another recruit no offense to any recruiters here. Joined: Jan 26, Messages: Recruiters don't like you to do it that way since it could make you back out if you don't pass. Part of that decision making process involves taking the Defense Language Aptitude Battery test itself to see what kinds of skills are required.
There are two kinds of foreign language testing military members are most likely to encounter while serving. A different kind of language testing happens for service members after they have been tested, approved, and trained in a new language.
Language Proficiency tests are administered on a regular basis for those drawing proficiency pay in another language. Military linguists who have been trained in Mandarin, for example, and use Mandarin in their military work are retested to ensure they still have the appropriate level of proficiency required for the job and for the incentive pay. We are not covering that kind of testing here. The idea behind DLAB testing is that untrained and untested candidates are evaluated on their raw ability with language concepts.
DLAB testing typically happens at the beginning of a military career, or at the beginning of a new military career for someone who is already serving in a different capacity. This kind of testing is basically a screening process to find the best candidates with the right language abilities. The first thing to know about DLAB is that timing is everything. If you want to take DLAB, make sure you have a test scheduled for you prior to going to basic training.
The going advice indicates that new recruits opting for DLAB tests should not let the recruiter schedule you to depart for the Military Entrance Processing Station to ship out to boot camp if you have not taken the test yet.
You should have a conversation about DLAB as early as possible with a recruiter—some may not be as familiar with the program and may need to do research on which forms to fill out, who to schedule testing with, etc.
Last-minute efforts to initiate this process are discouraged. Specialized testing and screening for unique military jobs requires more time than for recruits coming into the military without an assigned career field yet. Why is it so different? Don't worry, there is room for mistake making. The questions come quickly, so keep up to speed with the tape and clock no matter what, or else you're doomed.
