GED Classes Hagerstown, Maryland

Last Updated on April 11, 2024.

Listed here is an overview of all GED prep classes and test facilities in the Hagerstown area. To earn your Maryland High School Equivalency diploma, you need to pass the GED exam.

The GED exam can be taken online and at state-approved GED testing centers.

The exam offers adults who couldn’t finish high school the opportunity to earn an equivalent credential.

The GED® is entirely computer-formatted and includes four independent subtests.

The exam assesses fundamental skills and knowledge at the level that can be expected of high school seniors upon graduation.

The four testing fields are

• Math
• Science
• Language
• Social Studies

It used to be that there was no online GED testing option. You needed to show up at a Maryland GED testing site and sit for the tests in person. However, that has now changed as a new online testing option was introduced. Learn more below.

GED Online Test

Until recently, to take the four GED subtests, there was never an online option. You were required to come, in person, to an official Maryland GED testing facility if you were looking to get ahold of your GED diploma.

Well, fortunately, all of that has now changed with the arrival of a new, online, proctored GED test-taking opportunity. You need to have a reliable Internet connection, and an online proctor will then oversee your activities and check if everything is done in line with the rules and regulations. Go to ‘Introducing the online GED test’ for more information.

GED Testing Cost in Maryland

In Maryland, the full GED battery costs $144 or $36 per subtest. For first-time testers, however, Maryland subsidizes $21.75 per subtest, so they pay only $14.25 per sub-exam or $57 for the full GED exam. You can take and pay for one of the four GED subtests at a time.

The subsidized rate of $14.25 for first-time GED testers counts for both online and on-site testing. When registering for a GED subtest, first-time testers should use the discount code MDGED2175 at checkout to benefit from this great offer. Maryland will not subsidize retests. To register for the GED exam (one subtest at a time if you wish), you must create an account on the GED.com website.
