Are you interested in obtaining your GED® but unsure where to start? Look no further!
 
Although not a testing site, we offer GED prep classes to help you gain more knowledge and confidence. After a placement test, we can determine what areas may need more improvement, and that helps with assuring a higher success rate in passing the GED tests. 

Below are some of the frequently asked questions.

What is the GED®test?

 

The GED test is made up of 4 subjects that are broken into separate exams. This is great as it means you don't have to take all 4 tests at once and allows you to become more familiar with the setting of the testing site and the test structure itself.

Below are the 4 Subjects that you have to pass to receive your High School Equivalent Diploma:

  1. Reasoning through Language Arts (RLA)
  2. Mathematical Reasoning
  3. Science 
  4. Social Studies

Do I have to take the GED® prep classes to test?

 

You do not have to take our GED® preparation classes; however, all our students say they feel much more well-prepared when testing. You are more than welcome to check out the GED® website (click here) to get an idea of what the test holds.

What is the GED®  prep program exactly?

 

Our GED® Preparation Program prepares you to earn a secondary credential through testing. Although this state document is not a High School Diploma, it is recognized by the State Board of Education. So, after you pass the GED® test, your credential will be issued by the State Board of Education and you will receive a GED® transcript to apply to colleges, start training, or get a better job.

 

Although our Marshallton location is not a GED® testing center, we work closely with the GED® testing centers nearby. 

What is the cost to enroll and attend?
