Onsego Launches Fast Mode

Students looking to earn their GED really quickly can benefit from the new GED Fast Mode Prep Course designed by Onsego.

This program will help them earn their GED in weeks, not months!

How Onsego Fast Mode Works

Instead of adhering to a traditional school-style approach, this Fast Mode course teaches students to use common-sense reasoning. Instead of just memorizing information, the course emphasizes learning through practice.

The course guides students through real GED-style practice questions paired with short video explainers. These videos explain the required knowledge in simple, clear steps.

As a result, the students will be ready to take the GED test successfully much faster than with a traditional in-class learning method.

The GED test includes four modular subtests, and students should always start with their strongest subject area. Early success builds up confidence, and confidence is the key to success

Onsego’s Fast Mode course covers the four GED subjects, and each subject area includes 15 to 20 short, to-the-point video lessons, followed by a few quizzes to check understanding of the material.

Onsego’s short video lessons are visual, engaging, and fast, covering one GED test topic at a time. There are no long, boring lectures, which will only lead to loss of attention.

GED Math

Math is an important GED subject and is considered the most challenging by most students.

In Onsego’s Fast Mode course, practically all GED math topics are taught using the TI-30XS calculator from Texas Instruments.

This is the same calculator as the one allowed on the real GED test. Students learn how to solve GED math problems using the tool that is available during the GED math test.

This is the only calculator allowed on the GED test. Students learn how to use the calculator fast and efficiently. There’s no memorizing formulas or performing complex math calculations in their head.

After completing the essential lessons, the students move on to practice questions with embedded video explainers that show how to spot patterns, eliminate wrong answers, and combine skills. Again, students learn by practicing, not memorizing.

Onsego Video Explainers

Many GED students don’t realize that the GED test often combines multiple topics into a single question. To answer correctly, they must use logical reasoning rather than simply remember and apply a single rule.

That’s why practicing with Onsego’s Video Explainers works differently from taking regular GED practice tests. Instead of reading a written explanation after each question, there is a short video explainer embedded in the question.

These video explainers quickly remind students of the key ideas and teach test-taking strategies such as the Divide and Conquer approach and how to Eliminate Wrong Answers.

This way, students will develop a reliable method for solving GED problems rather than simply working through practice problems.

Practice Tests

After completing Onsego’s practice questions with the built-in Video Explainers, students will take some Build Your Skills practice tests to reinforce what they have learned.

Then they will take Onsego’s Readiness Practice Test to check whether they are really ready to take the GED test successfully.

Their instructor reviews the results and tells them honestly whether they’re ready or need to strengthen their knowledge in some areas first.

Students who are ready can take the official GED Ready practice test. There are four GED Ready tests, one for each of the four GED subject tests. Onsego offers free GED Ready vouchers for these tests.

Students scoring 145 or higher on the GED Ready test can register for and schedule the real GED subtest, and Onsego’s instructors guide the students through this process.

After passing their first subject test, the students can move on to the next subject. They can take the four GED subtests in any desired order and back-to-back or one at a time; that’s completely up to them.

Is Onsego’s Fast Mode right for you?

Onsego’s Fast Mode course is powerful, so it’s important to understand who may benefit most from this course.

Onsego offers two main paths to prepare for the GED test: the Regular Path and the Pro Plan.

Fast Mode is part of Onsego’s Pro Plan, and if this option feels too challenging at some point, students can simply switch to the regular study path from their account.

Onsego’s Fast Mode course is ideal for students looking to pass the GED test quickly and who are comfortable with this specific learn-by-doing approach.

Onsego’s Regular Path is better suited to students who perform better when they learn concepts first and prefer to move at a slower pace. With this option, it’s all about building confidence rather than getting super fast ready for the GED test.

In the Regular Path, instructors will step in later to assess readiness and help close any GED knowledge gaps.

Everything is delivered online, and there are so many reasons why online learning works so much better than in-class instruction!
