Welcome to the forum, Nik.

I would suggest you double-time it to your local bookstore and purchase an ASVAB study guide. They run between $15 -25 dollars depending on the make. As well as practise tests, the guide will also include step by step instructions in figuring out the mathematical problems that may be on the test.

Did you fail the "Pre-ASVAB" or the ASVAB itself? The Marine Corps gives a screening prior to discussing any potential contract. If it was the ASVAB you failed, ask your recruiter to take some time with you once you've purchased a study guide.

Good luck.
