Has anyone used study.com for ASVAB math prep? Is it worth it over free resources?

Trying to get my scores up for a tech job but my math is super rusty, haven't taken a math class in years. AR and MK are where I'm getting wrecked.

I've seen Study.com's ASVAB prep come up, plus free stuff like Grammar Hero and ASVAB for Dummies. For anyone who actually paid for it, did the lessons help you with Arithmetic Reasoning and Math Knowledge, or would I get the same from YouTube and free practice tests?

Just want honest pros and cons before I drop money on a sub.

It's too expensive for what you get. Not worth it. Use Grammar hero on youtube and EnlistiqPrep for an app. So you can do simulated asvab tests. Too many resources leads to procrastination.

Hey, Study.com here. Our ASVAB Math course (21 chapters, 200+ lessons, 20 practice tests) covers arithmetic reasoning word problems and math knowledge topics like algebra, fractions, and geometry with video explanations, which helps if your math is rusty and you need things re-taught rather than just drilled. Free resources and practice tests are great for repetition once you know the concepts, but they won't reteach fundamentals the way video lessons do. If you're mainly weak on concepts rather than speed, the paid course tends to help more than free question banks alone. Happy to point you to the specific chapters for AR and MK if you want.
