However, students who received special education services may be eligible for accommodations during the GED test. These accommodations are designed to help them demonstrate their knowledge and skills fairly, even if they have learning differences or disabilities. These accommodations might include:
* Extended time: More time to complete the test sections.
* Separate testing room: A quieter, less distracting environment.
* Assistive technology: Use of devices like screen readers or text-to-speech software.
* Reader/scribe: Someone to read the test questions aloud or to write down their answers.
To receive accommodations, students typically need to provide documentation of their special education history and any diagnosed learning disabilities from their school. They should contact their local GED testing center well in advance of the test date to request accommodations and begin the process of providing the necessary documentation.
