"The PiCAT Test"

The Pre-screening Internet-delivered Computerized Adaptive Test (PiCAT) is an online assessment, introduced in 2018, that applicants to the armed forces must sit.

The PiCAT is administered at the beginning of the enlistment process to help assess a candidate’s suitability for different military roles and aid in assigning appropriate training pathways.

It indicates what is referred to as a candidate’s Military Occupational Specialty (MOS) potential across the Air Force, Army, Coast Guard, Marine Corps and Navy.

The PiCAT evaluates career fields in positions such as:

- Clerical
- Combat
- Field Artillery
- Electronics
- General Technical
- General Maintenance
- Mechanical Maintenance
- Operators and Food
- Surveillance and Communications
- Skilled Technical

Once candidates have their PiCAT score, they will be signposted to their local Military Entry Processing Site (MEPS) to explore their career options.
