GED Classes Memphis Tennessee

This article lists all GED and HiSET prep classes and test centers in the Memphis area. Tennessee uses two options for its high school equivalency testing program: the GED and HiSET exams.

HiSET and GED testing can be done online or at one of Tennessee’s designated test centers.

The assessments give adults who haven’t finished high school another chance to earn an equivalent credential.

Some GED or HiSET students do better when guided by an instructor at one of the prep sites listed below. Others do very well when using a good online course.

This website offers free practice tests and GED online classes to help you begin your GED prep and determine whether studying with an online course is right for you.

If it is, we advise you to continue with Onsego Online GED Prep, an accredited online GED program designated as “fully GED test-compatible” by GED Testing Service.

In earlier times, the GED or HiSET exam could not be taken online. That has changed. You can find more information about online GED and HiSET testing at the bottom of this post.

What’s on the HiSET and GED exams

The HiSET exam includes five independent, modular sub-exams that measure knowledge in these subject areas:

• English Language Writing
• English Language Reading
• Math
• Science
• Social Studies

On the GED exam, the writing and reading portions were combined, resulting in one Language Arts sub-exam, so there are four GED subtests.

HiSET testing can be done on a computer or in a paper-and-pencil format, while the GED can be taken on a computer only.

The Online GED and HiSET Tests

In earlier times, you could not take the GED or HiSET exam online via the Internet. You had to report in person to one of Tennessee’s state-recognized HSE testing centers.

A few years back, however, we saw the introduction of online proctored options to deal with the five HiSET or four GED subtests, so that has now changed.

To learn more about this fascinating development, check out ‘The online HiSET exam.’ For more GED online information, go to The Online GED Exam.

To be eligible for online GED testing, you’ll first have to reach passing scores on the GED Ready practice test, and there’s a GED Ready test for each of the four GED modules, so that’s four. You can buy the GED Ready tests on GED.com at $7.99 each, totaling $32.

In case you register with one of Onsego’s Advantage Plans, you won’t have to buy the GED Ready test. These Advantage Plans include four vouchers for the GED Ready test at no cost, a wonderful $32 bonus.
