GED Classes Salina, Kansas

This article includes an overview of all GED prep locations and testing facilities in the Salina region. The state of Kansas is using the GED exam for its High School Equivalency testing program.

GED® testing can be done online and at state-certified test centers.

The exam offers adults who did not complete their high school curriculum the chance to earn an equivalent degree. Testing happens at a level that’s comparable to that of graduating HS seniors.

The GED exam includes four independent subtests that can be taken separately. The four GED subtests cover the fields of

• Mathematical Reasoning
• Language through Language Arts
• Science, including Chemistry, Scientific Method, Physics
• Social Studies, including History, Government, Geography

In the past, GED testing over the Internet was not offered. Test-takers were required to come to one of Kansas’ state-designated testing sites.

Now, however, the arrival of an online GED testing option has changed that. Read more below.
