GED test 2023 changes

The key change is that passing three of the four GED subject tests relies heavily on your critical thinking and reading comprehension skills. Questions include a 3-5 paragraph text that you need to read, and then answer questions related to the text. Often, this seems overwhelming because the text is pretty long, and the questions are detail-oriented.

Fortunately, there are three strategies to overcome this problem, and we will teach you how to answer these questions.

1. Read all of the questions carefully first. Then, skim that passage.

When you do this, you begin by reading all of the questions first before you read the passage. By doing this, you’ll get an idea of what the content is all about, and you’ll be able to read it discerningly.

2. First, skim the passage. Then, read all of the questions.

Sometimes, students are distracted by glancing over questions before reading the passage, and they would like to skim the text first before looking at all of the questions.  They first want to get an idea of the passage’s structure, content, and purpose.

3. Closely read the passage.
By using this strategy, students read the text closely first instead of skimming the passage for important clues and points. After that, they’ll continue reading the questions and answering them. To discover which of these three strategies suits you best, we recommend you try all three and take our timed practice tests.

When you look at your scores and find out what works best for you, you can decide which strategy makes you feel comfortable and if you should focus on reading the passage first or reading the questions first.

To summarize

Using sample practice questions is a proven way of getting familiar with the exam requirements and time restraints. Additionally, you will be able to identify your weak points, such as time management, grammar, or calculation mistakes that can hold you back.
