This article lists all GED prep facilities and testing sites in the Elizabeth, New Jersey, region. New Jersey no longer uses the HiSET high school equivalency test.
The GED exam can be taken online and at state-approved testing sites.
The exam assesses proficiency at a level that equals that of graduating high school seniors.
The GED exam must be taken on a computer; paper-based testing is not possible.

It doesn’t matter when you left school.
The GED has four individual tests that measure a test-taker’s proficiency in the following fields:
- English Language Arts
- Social Studies
- Mathematics
- Science
These subtests are independent modules that can be completed separately and in any desired order.
The New Jersey high school equivalency (HSE) credential is accepted just like a regular high school diploma by educational institutions and employers.

The GED Online Exam
Until recently, taking the GED exam over the Internet was not an option. You had to come personally to one of New Jersey’s state-designated HSE testing sites and take the tests there. Now, all of this has changed with the introduction of the online GED test.
