The Online GED Test
Until a few years back, to sit for the GED test, you were required to show up in person at one of Texas’s state-recognized high school equivalency test centers. Online testing was never an option.
This has changed as witnessed the arrival of an online proctored GED test. To stay informed about this significant development, visit ‘Introducing the online GED test.’
To qualify for the online GED test, you’ll first have to attain passing scores on the official GED Ready test. In total, you’ll need to pass four GED Ready tests, since there’s a GED Ready test for each GED module. The GED Ready test costs $7.99 on GED.com, so the total is $32.
GED students learning with an Onsego Advantage Plan will receive four GED Ready vouchers as part of their Advantage Plans. Isn’t that a wonderful $32 value bonus?
