Self-motivated students can benefit from free online GED preparation programs. These preparation courses tend to include practice tests with answers as well as self-improvement resources. The advantages of online preparation programs include low risk, low or no cost, flexibility to study whenever you want and the opportunity to become familiar with the testing format before the day of your exam. On the other hand, it can be difficult to stay disciplined when studying alone, and if you get stuck in a particular area it is easy to become frustrated.

State and community colleges often run group GED preparation programs for students of all ages. The cost of these group programs is often far less than private tutoring, and classes tend to be offered at various times so that people who work full time can still attend the preparation classes. These types of opportunities vary by state, but you can find out about GED preparation programs near you by visiting your state's Department of Education website or the Department of Continuing Education/Adult Basic Education at your local state or community college.
