Over 20 Million Adults
That’s how many have successfully passed their GED® test. So why wait?
LET’S GET STARTED"I want to go to school to better myself, but I can’t because I haven’t been in school since 1994. I’m scared to death that I won’t be able to remember anything. When I was 20 years old, I was going through so much with my kids. A diploma was the last thing on my mind. My kids came first. I want to obtain my diploma so I can obtain better employment. I don’t want to live paycheck to paycheck. I want a nest-egg. "
