GED Stories

I took my G E D in Utah in 2003 and I’m just now able to get back on track and work on my G E D again. I have a tutor that’s helping me with my math, and that’s all I have left to finish it up. It’s been an uphill battle to try and fit this into my schedule. Life gets busy, but I am constantly working on getting in my study time… It’s not easy though… for those of you that are just now starting on getting your G E D, don’t give up!! No matter how hard it is to fit it into your schedule it’s worth it, I promise… I’m getting ready to go back and take my test again soon.

I left school because I was living with my uncle in Tenn. I was 17 in the 9th grade, and he was going through a divorce so he took me back to Tex. That’s when I met my husband, and we got married when I was 18. I just never thought about school again until I was in my 20′s, but I never stuck with it.

I want my G E D because I would love to get into the medical field. I took a course online to learn how to do medical billing and coding.

My dreams will become reality with… perseverance.
