It’s not really a science question, unless you know some chemistry formula to make it happen.. but how do I get un-scared by the GED? I’m 18, graduated homeschooling at 17, but didn’t get a diploma for how I was schooled, so now I’m here to make a run for my GED. I know I’m intelligent, but I’m afraid I don’t have the “school smarts” I’m supposed to have to pass this. I know I’ve got my science down, I’m a girl of science, my man. And language/writing should be cake for me. But history and math are my two worst subjects. I’ve never been good with numbers of any kind, and history just doesn’t stick for me. I’m scared.. how to you think I could change that?

The science test is a lot like the reading test in that you just gotta answer questions about what you just read and use a little common sense! If you don’t get scared off by the big words and relax a little, you’ll probably do better!

So make sure you read the questions really well. That’s advice for the test, but for studying, I’d say just keep doing practice questions when you can. If you get a question wrong, find out what’s right and ask yourself what about that question tricked you up. It will help you with questions like that in the future!
