<\/span>What is the GED Test?<\/h2>\n

The General Educational Development (GED) test is a standardized test in the United States designed for individuals who did not complete high school. Originating in 1942 to assist returning World War II soldiers, the GED now helps anyone without a high school diploma to earn credentials for career advancement or further education.<\/p>\n

Accepted nationwide, the GED test takes about seven hours and is known for its accessibility and high success rate. Most US colleges and universities recognize GED certification, which has benefited over 20 million people. The test boasts a lower ratio of jobless people, a college admission rate of 60 percent, and general acceptance by workplaces and higher education at a rate of 97 percent.<\/p>\n
