What is on the GED Test
The GED exam includes four separate subtests in these academic fields:
- English Language Literacy
- Social Studies
- Science
- Math
The GED exam assesses academic proficiency at a level that’s similar to that of high school seniors upon graduation.
There’s no need to take all four tests in one session. You can take these subtests (modules) one at a time and in any order.

Kentucky Age Requirements
In Kentucky, you need to be at least 18 years of age to be eligible for GED testing. GED applicants who are 18 years old must, however, have been officially withdrawn from their school for no less than 90 days, but local superintendents have the option to waive this 90-day wait time.
State residence is required, and all applicants must have a Kentucky mailing address. There’s no need to attend a GED preparatory course first, but all test-takers must take and achieve satisfactory results on the GED Ready official practice test before they can register for the actual test. You can sit for the GED Ready test at no cost at local adult education centers.
Online Proctored GED Testing
In earlier days, sitting for the GED test over the Internet was no option. If you wanted to secure your Kentucky GED degree, your personal appearance at one of Kentucky’s official GED test facilities was a requirement.
A few years back, however, the introduction of the online GED test changed this. You can now also sit for the GED exam online as well.
An online proctor guides you through the process and checks if everything happens in accordance with all applicable regulations.
To read more about the Kentucky online GED exam, go to this page: ‘The online GED test.’
To qualify for online testing, you must first achieve ‘green’ (passing) scores on the GED Ready test, the official practice test by GED Testing Service.
These practice tests cost $7.99 each on the GED.com website, and there’s a practice test for each GED subject test, making it 4 in total for $32.
Free GED Ready Tests
However, as mentioned before, you can take these tests for free at local Kentucky education centers, and students with an Onsego Advantage Plan also get 4 GED Ready tests for free, as they’re included in the plan.
Onsego’s Advantage Plans start at $79 for the 6-month option and will help you get all set for the GED test in no time!
