The Online GED Test
In earlier days, there was no option to sit for the GED exam in an online format. If you were looking to secure your Virginia GED credential, you always had to present yourself in person at an official, state-recognized Virginia testing center.
However, a few years back, we witnessed the introduction of a new online GED test-taking option, so all of that has changed. Qualifying students can now take the GED test in an online format from the comfort of their own homes.
A proctor will oversee online to ensure their activities are in line with the regulations. To read more about this development, check out ‘The online GED exam.’
