What is on the GED® Test?
The GED® tests four subjects and there is no choice of subjects. You must pass all four tests to earn your GED® credential.
The online GED® prep programme that we offer will help you develop the skills you need to pass each test. We will guide you at each step of the way.
Take the first step towards achieving your goals.
No paperwork is required to enrol, just the student’s name, email, phone number and confirmation of payment.
Once we receive your payment, we will activate your account on the online system and email you your login and password to access the online GED® prep classes.
The access license is purchased for one calendar year non-stop from the date of activation and once activated it is not refundable or transferable to another student.
