How to Take the GED Online Free
You cannot take the official GED (General Education Development) test online at all. To take the official test that will earn you your GED, you must go to an approved testing center to take a proctored exam. However, you can take practice GED test questions online. This way you can find out if you need more preparation to take the exam (such as taking classes) or if you are ready to make your appointment at a testing center. The test covers mathematics, language arts such as reading and writing, science and social studies.
