Q: When is the test?
The High School Equivalency test is offered monthly for registered students who meet the requirements for testing. How long is the test? The test is four parts: Reasoning through Language Arts (RLA), Math, Science, Social Studies. You don't have to take all tests at once (most students take 2-3 tests in one day). Each test is different lengths. For more information on the test itself visit GED Test Subjects - See What's on the Test | GED® Do you have online classes? Yes, but enrollment needs to be in-person. Most online students are more successful if they attend in-person as well. Do you have evening classes? Not at this time, but our experience is that most employers will work with you to accommodate your school schedule. We may add evening classes in the future if the need is great. There are also tutoring possibilities for the evening hours. Does it cost anything? No, but there are requirements that you need to meet to test. I need help with Math, do you offer classes for that? We have math classes, independent study resources and online programs to help you prepare for the exam How old do I need to be? At least 17 years old and formally withdrawn from High School or Homeschooled. How long does it take? It depends on the time and effort you put towards your goals, there is no average time it takes. Can I just come and take the test? No, testing is free in West Virginia but there are a minimum number of attendance hours, assignments and practice testing required prior to the GED exam. Part of the requirements include creating a plan for what comes after you earn your High School Equivalency. What do I need to do? How do I get started? Attend an Information Session at the Adult Learning Center to get started, this the first step. Check our website for upcoming sessions. |
