What motivated you to get your GED? Well, because I know I’m a very smart young lady, and I love school and want to learn.

What problems have you faced? I get scared in school because the other kids used to tease me about me studying, and I left.

What do you hope to gain from getting your GED? I want to be a baby doctor.

Lavette,

We’re so pleased that you want to continue your education, and go on to become a doctor. Keep your goal in mind during your journey, so you remember what you’re working toward. We always encourage younger learners to try to finish their education at their traditional high school, so be sure you’re considering all your options.
