GED Information
Taking your GED
The GED Test measures your "General Educational Development". This test covers four separate subjects, including reasoning through language arts, science, social studies, and mathematical reasoning. It is a measurement of your problem solving and critical thinking skills. When you pass all four tests, you receive a credential certifying that your educational understanding is the same or better than a high school graduate.
