GED Classes Roanoke Virginia

This is an overview of all GED prep classes and testing facilities in the Roanoke region. Virginia is using the computer-based GED exam for high school equivalency testing.

The GED test is available online and at state-approved Virginia GED test centers.

The exam gives adults who did not finish high school the opportunity to earn an equivalent credential.

Testing occurs at a level comparable to that of HS seniors upon graduation.

There are four GED subtests that can be written one at a time if wished. The four subtests cover:

• Language Arts
• Social Studies
• Math
• Science

Our platform provides free GED online classes to help you determine if working with an online program is right for you. If so, we suggest you register with Onsego GED Prep, one of the most affordable, accredited online courses available, and get all set fast.

Some students do better studying under the guidance of a teacher. If you’re one of them, contact one of the prep sites listed on this page.

Online GED testing had, until recently, never been possible. You were always required to come to a state-designated test center and sit for the tests in person.

Well, this has changed now with the introduction of the online proctored GED testing option. To learn more, check the information at the bottom of this page.

Introducing Online Proctored GED Testing

In the past, you couldn’t sit for the GED exam via the Internet. If you wanted to secure your GED diploma, you always had to present yourself at an official Virginia GED testing facility.

This has now changed. Recently, we saw the launch of a new online GED testing option. Qualifying GED students now have the choice to take the GED test from the comfort of their homes.

An online proctor will monitor their testing activities and check if everything happens in line with the rules. If you would like to read about this great new development, go to ‘The online proctored GED test.’
