The GED (General Educational Development) Preparation
program prepares students to pass the five-part GED exam which
includes Language Arts Writing Skills, Science, Social Studies,
Language Arts Reading Skills and Mathematics. It also instructs students in test-taking and
problem-solving skills and allows students to practice with the GED
format to prepare them for the exam.
All of the questions on the GED Tests are multiple
choice, except for one part of the writing test, which requires you
to write an essay. Those who pass the GED, which is offered in
English and Spanish, are awarded a Connecticut State High School Diploma.
