I recently passed the asvab an yes it pretty easy. I’d say the only parts I struggled was arithmetic reasoning and electronics other than that it should be a breeze

I got an 81 AFQT and close to max on my line scores, the biology section was the hardest imo. I finished in 40mins or so and didn’t study, it’s comparable to the ACT definitely, if you’ve taken the ACT and done well you should be good for the ASVAB.
I was stationed in Spain -España...absolutely AMAZING. Loved it and would go back and live....gorgeous people, culture and everything...never boring in Spain, lots of fiestas , the food is super healthy -Mediterranean style...lots of olive oil and vino, beer too...or cerveza. lots and lots to do in sunny , fun Spain.....

I just went to the marine recruiting station to do a workout with them for the first time and we got 6 sets of a 200 meter dash, 10 burpees, 20 lunges, 20 bicycle crunches, 20 diamond push ups, and 20 mountain climbers in 25 minutes

The worst part of joining at a young age especially if you are not in a dry area is that the young marines are going to drink and get into trouble, and spending all the cash that they should be saving

I plan to join when I get out of high school. My question is how was at the boot camp. I'm not told about the 10 days off I'm talking about after when you go straight into the two weeks marching session. I honestly what it is called and I feel bad but I want to know what it's like.

It depends on your mos (workload) and command if they allow you to attend and I’m pretty sure you need a certain amount of time at your duty station before TA will allow you to attend.
