The GED Tests cannot be taken online

If you take a test on the Internet that claims to be the GED Tests, it is not a legitimate program. Some people may find out later that it is an alternative diploma or that it is a diploma mill. Do your research before spending any money, and use the resources below to find out more.

When and why did GED® testing begin?

At the request of the military, the GED Tests were first developed in 1942 to help returning World War II veterans finish their high school studies and reenter civilian life. The GED Tests first became available to civilians in 1947 when the state of New York implemented a program to award its high school diploma to those who passed.

High school equivalency (GED) test will change in 2013

The high school equivalency (GED) test will change in 2013, and people who have not passed all sections of the current test before then will have to be tested again with the new exam.

The new edition of the GED Testing Service exam will be offered in January 2013, so it is important for people to take or finish sections of the current test before then.
