GED Pre Test
Some – though not all – GED test centers require that prospective test takers successfully complete the GED pretest, which is intended to evaluate one’s academic knowledge in comparison to what’s required to pass the actual exam. Some counties and states will also waive the fee of the GED exam for those individuals who have earned a passing score on the pre GED – which is yet another incentive to take the test.
There is no time limit for the 25 question pretest and it consists of the same five subjects that the GED test does, including the language arts (with emphasis on both reading literature and the basics of writing), basic mathematics (such as algebra, fractions and percentages), social studies, including both history and geography, as well as earth and physical sciences.
The same type of questions that are on the real GED test will also be used for the GED pre test in order to you an accurate idea of what to expect. Taking an official pre GED test gives you the same experience, so not only will you be familiar with the type of questions used, but you’ll also have a better idea as to what to expect when it comes time to take the actual examination.
