Academic Qualifications Rating (AQR)◦ Predicts academic performance ◦ Strongest influence is Math Skills Test◦ Scores Range from 1-9; Min for Navy=4, USMC=5
Pilot Flight Aptitude Rating (PFAR)◦ Predicts primary flight performance for aviators◦ Influence is Aviation and Nautical Information and
Spatial Apperception Tests◦ Scores Range from 1-9; Min for Navy=5, USMC=6
Flight Officer Flight Aptitude Rating (FOFAR)◦ Predicts primary flight school performance for
NFOs◦ Strongest influence is Math Skills Test◦ Scores Range from 1-9; Min for Navy=5,
USMC=6 Officer Aptitude Rating (OAR)
◦ Math, Reading, and Mechanical Comprehension◦ Scores Range from 20-80
