GED Stories

Age: 19
State: AK

What motivated you to get your GED? I realized that any person that doesn’t have a GED can’t get ahead in life.

How have your friends and family helped you? My friends and family have helped me by encouraging me to take better steps and use good decision-making in life.

What problems have you faced? I have faced many problems in my life such as trying to figure out how I can overcome my educational problems. I’m always curious about things, and sometimes learning too much at once can cause some stress, but it’s ok, I’m looking forward to educating myself a lot more so this way I can handle life’s hard tasks, and also overcome the fear of financial problems for myself and my family.

What do you hope to gain from getting your GED? If I can accomplish getting my GED, I will know that it will be one less thing to worry about. Hopefully getting my GED will provide me better knowledge to handle future problems, but I always have some sort of fear of getting ahead in life.

Nikita,

It’s great that you’re always curious. Curiosity is a fantastic tool for learning! Just try to take your learning one step at a time, take the time to think through what you’re learning right now before you move on to the next thing. That way, you’ll remember better and end up learning faster. We know that you’ll do great on the GED… and on whatever your next step in life may be!
