Quick answer

The GED (General Educational Development) is the US high-school equivalency test — for people without a high-school diploma who want an equivalent credential for work or college. It's computer-based, split into four subjects, each scored 100–200, and you need 145+ to pass each one.

What's on the GED (4 subjects)

📖 Reasoning Through Language Arts

Reading comprehension, grammar, language use, and an analytical written response.

🔢 Mathematical Reasoning

Arithmetic, algebra, geometry and data interpretation; a calculator is allowed on part of it.

🔬 Science

Life, physical and earth science, plus reading science graphs and data.

🌏 Social Studies

What GED score do you need?

Each subject is scored 100–200: 145+ = passing (GED Passing), 165–174 = College Ready, and 175+ = College Ready + Credit. You earn the GED credential by passing all four subjects.

How to prepare for the GED

  1. 1. Practise each subject's questions and read the solution for every one to understand the reasoning.
  2. 2. Build a solid base in English and Math — usually the two subjects to focus on most.
  3. 3. Practise reading graphs/tables, since Science and Social Studies test data interpretation.
  4. 4. Practise under real timing; you can take one subject at a time.
