What are the GED Tests
The GED Tests are the five (5) tests of General Educational Development. The GED Testing Service of the American Council on Education makes them available to adults who did not graduate from high school. Tests cover the same subjects that people study in high school. The five subjects include: Language Arts Writing and Reading, Social Studies, Science and Mathematics. Candidates are not required to know all of the information that is usually taught in high school, however, across the five tests, candidates are tested on their ability to read and process information, solve problems, and communicate effectively.
When you pass the GED Tests, you receive a certificate or diploma that is regarded as equivalent to a high school diploma. Employers in private industry and government, as well as admissions offices in colleges and universities accept the GED certificate as they would a high school diploma.
