GED Classes Norwalk Connecticut

In this article, you can find a full listing of GED prep locations and test centers in and around Norwalk. The state of Connecticut uses the computer-based GED test for its High School Equivalency testing program.

You can sit for the GED exam online or at a state-certified test center. For more details about online GED testing, check below.

The GED is for adults who did not finish high school and gives them one more chance to earn a degree that is equivalent to a high school diploma.

Testing occurs at a similar level to what may be expected of graduating HS students.

There are four GED modules (independent subtests) that assess a candidate’s knowledge level in these subjects:

• English Language
• Social Studies
• Math
• Science

You have the option to take the four GED modules one (or more) at a time and in the order you wish.

The Connecticut GED exam is free for residents under 21 and veterans. All others pay just $13 for the entire exam.

For GED passing scores, testing fees, or eligibility criteria in Connecticut, go to The Connecticut GED Test.
