The GED exam includes tests in 5 separate subjects. The Social Studies, Science, Language Arts: Reading, Language Arts: Writing, and Mathematics. Social Studies, Science and Language Arts: Reading tests are all multiple-choice with 5 possible answers per question. The Language Arts: Writing test includes both a multiple-choice section and a short essay. The math test has both multiple-choice and alternate forms of answers, such as graphing. It is divided into two equal sections of 45 minutes each; a calculator is permitted (and provided ) during the first section. Questions on every test range from easy to difficult, and cover a wide variety of material. And What do I need to bring to the test?
Photo ID is the most important item: no photo ID, no testing — no exceptions. The preferred forms of ID are a driver’s license, state ID, passport, or other government-issued ID. Other ID may be used if it has your photo, signature, and birthdate on it. Examinees should know their Social Security Number (a GED ID number will be issued to those who do not have or do not wish to provide a Social Security Number).
The appropriate fees for GED Testing were already paid when you turned in your GED Test Registration Packet. The Testing Center will provide pencils, pens, scratch paper and a graphing calculator. Nothing else is necessary for testing. Examinees may not use their own calculator or any reference materials. Pagers, phones, and other messaging and electronic devices should not be brought to the test session. Friends and family must wait outside the testing room.
