The Online GED Test - How Does It Work

This episode addresses taking the GED test online, available in most states, offering flexibility and convenience for test-takers.

We discuss how candidates must first achieve a "likely to pass" score on the official GED Ready practice test for each subject. Each subject's practice test costs $7.99, totaling $32 for all four.

To qualify for online testing, they must also have a stable internet connection, a private, distraction-free room, and a desktop or laptop with webcam & microphone (tablets, Chromebooks, and mobile devices not permitted).
