GED Classes Marion Ohio

In this article, you can discover all GED prep class options and testing facilities in the Marion region. Ohio has implemented the computer-based GED test and also welcomed the HiSET alternative.

Both assessments are available online and at official Ohio testing centers.

The HiSET exam may be taken both on a computer or in a paper-based format, but the GED is only offered in a computer-based format.

Ohio’s HSE (high school equivalency) test offers adults who left high school without a diploma the chance to earn an equivalent degree.

The GED includes four separate subject tests (modules) that may be completed one subtest at a time.

The four GED testing fields are

• Social Studies
• Science
• Math
• English Language Literacy

The HiSET has individual reading and writing subtests that you may also take separately.

In the past, online HiSET or GED testing was not possible. You needed to come to one of Ohio’s official testing sites in person.

That has now changed with the arrival of online HiSET and GED testing options. Read more at the bottom of this page.
