- mike00632 8y agoThe US Army has numerous tests and almost none of them relate to IQ. There is the DLAB (Defense Language Aptitude Battery) which measures ability to learn languages, and of course there are the famous (and far more important) physical tests which measure running speed, push-ups and sit-ups.
