David, your letter is very moving. I appreciate the courage it took to write it. There are a great many people like you who are embarrassed to not have a h.s. diploma. You have taken the first step and that’s the most important one. Getting a GED is more about perseverance and drive than anything else. I have taught hundreds of adult students and recognize in you what it will take to be successful.
