No Online GED Testing in New York

In the State of New York, you cannot take the GED exam in an online format. You may, however, be eligible for taking the GED exam in a different state that doesn’t have any residency requirement. To take the GED test online, however, you first must score green (likely to pass) results on the GED Ready practice test. You must pass four GED Ready tests (one for each of the four GED sub-exams).

Four GED Ready tests cost four times $7.99, and they are available on the website GED.com. Onsego students who learn with an Advantage Plan don’t have to purchase these practice tests because four GED Ready vouchers are included in their plan, a $32 value! If you would like to learn all about the online GED test <- check here.

Should we remove or include a facility? Do we have to adjust this page? Please inform us here.
