Preparing for the GED Tests

There are a variety of ways for GED candidates to begin preparing for the GED tests. Candidates are encouraged to contact adult education resource centers in their area. Adult education resource centers can refer candidates to preparation classes, adult education programs, or community college programs. To locate adult education centers, candidates can go to America's Literacy Directory online or the National Institute for Literacy

Candidates may also contact The National Center for Family Literacy and speak with a counselor who can help to determine the appropriate instructional programs for GED candidates. Candidates who would prefer to pursue self-instruction programs may choose from a variety of television study aids, online instructional courses, and written sample tests. Local television stations may broadcast study programs during certain time slots. Candidates can consult local television listings to identify if any stations in their area offer GED preparation programs. Candidates should visit their local testing center to receive a full listing of the preparatory resources available to them.

Students can begin GED test preparation by understanding the various skills that will be required. The tests will require higher-order thinking skills, problem-solving skills, communication skills, and information analysis. Practice tests can help students to better understand the types of questions that will be on the actual test.
