GED Online School is accredited through the Higher Accreditation Board of Education. This means the online school is monitored for quality and standards of educational service as well as ethical business practices. To begin, you take a free GED pre-test that covers language arts, mathematics, science and social studies. You must pass with a 70 percent score to move on the GED classes. If you feel you do not need to take the pre-test but would like to register for classes, you may "apply with experience" and describe why you qualify to opt out of the pre-test.
At GEDforFree.com, you can also take the pre-test to understand where you rank on the high school equivalent range and which areas you should concentrate on in your studies. GEDforFree.com has classes and practice tests to help you better understand what the real GED exam will be like. The website is paid for through advertising, so it is free. There is also a blog where the site owners and students can talk about their experiences with the GED.
GED Academyl is another practice website with an easy-to-use interface. As with other websites, you begin with a practice test to gauge your equivalence and move on to classes and more practice tests from there. After the initial test, the online classes can be tailored to suit your needs, concentrating on your weaker points while helping make the best of your strong suits. Under the GED Prep Program tab, you can take a GED course demo to better understand what your online classes will entail.
