The exams are for adults without a high school diploma and give them the opportunity to get hold of an equivalent educational credential.

The GED must be taken on a computer and has four independent subtests in

  • English Language
  • Math
  • Social Studies
  • Science

The GED subtests (or modules) can be taken separately. You don’t have to complete the entire battery in one session. The HiSET is offered in paper and pencil formats.

This option includes five subtests; the section Language Arts has separate reading and writing tests that may also be taken separately.

It used to be that online GED or HiSET testing was no option. It needed to be done at an official Ohio testing site.

Recently, however, that changed with the launch of HiSET and GED online tests. Read more at the bottom of this page.

In Ohio, the Adult Education program is called ASPIRE.
