GED Study Buddy

If you are new to the GED, or you have been studying for awhile, you may want to consider finding a study buddy. Someone you can get together with and study for the GED test. It does not have to be someone who is studying in the same GED areas as you, nor does it have to be someone studying for the GED.

If you are studying GED Math, find someone who is good at math or has previously taken the GED Math test. If you are preparing for the GED Writing test, find someone who is good at writing or has taken the GED Writing test.

You may want to get together once or twice a week. Perhaps you communicate via email.

Whatever works best for you..... in your busy schedule.

Good luck!

GED: General Education Diploma

The acronym GED stands for General Education Diploma. There are 5 tests, called a Battery, that make up the GED tests. They are Language Arts, Reading; Language Arts, Writing; Science; Social Studies; and Mathematics.

These five tests measure the knowledge found in those areas. The GED tests are timed tests that can vary from 65 minutes to 2 hours.

Depending on where you are located, you may need to take the entire battery of GED tests in one or two sittings. Other places will allow you to test one test at a time.

It is important that you contact your local official GED Testing Center to find out the specific GED requirements for your location.
