hey

just wanted to ask that if anyone here has gotten a GED, if they could tell me how difficult it is?

Take it from someone with a little experiance, you want to finish High School the first time if you can.

As for the GED, Its easy. but unlike High School, It does not matter how how well you pass it.

i know. i should have finished high school. i couldny seem to get it down. im not very bright and i have a hard time understanding what im doing.

now that is alot like me. i did home school. go through American Schools. theyt can help you get your diploma. its not that hard but i think you learn alot more alot faster and easier. Look em up! if i can pass it then trust me...anyone can

let me know if you have any questions! and i have to say it takes guts to ocme out and ask everyone this and explain a lil about your situation. kudos to you!

the probelm with getting help from teachers and people how explain stuff like teachers do is that i wont get what their saying.
the only i know who is getting thier GED is my sisters friend and she says it really dificult but i dont know if i can trust her word cuz she like to pick on me alot. so i thought i would ask around here

^^' i actully have stopped myself from talking about my situation a few times but finally got the guts to ask about it

That's cool. If you don't have a HS degree then a GED is the next best thing. I think it shows initiative. If there's a writing part to the test I would suggest reading over what you wrote before you hand it in.

I know this is the internet and spelling is relaxed here, but there's no time like the present to practice.

BTW, I use Firefox and a spelling plugin to keep track of my misspellings.

Grab the latest version of Firefox, 2.0. It has a built in spell checker.

I believe there's a post around here somewhere I wrote where right in the middle I exclaimed:

Hey! Firefox 2 has a built in spell checker!

That's a good idea, thanks.

i'll have to do that once i get my computer back. its weird, i dont hve that great of spelling and grammer but when i see someone elses thats mest up i usually correct them. ^^' i spell better when i write

.
i think i'll be ok on the writing part of the test. its the math and sience that im going to have a hard time with

Dragon from my personal experience your best bet would be to study up as much as you possibly can if you plan to take a test for the GED. Whether your bright or not will be the deciding factor in whether you will pass and get your GED. It can and will be very difficult from what I have heard. Sadly I cant tell you anything else because I graduated from high school. (Oh boy that was a real pain.

) But moving on, you should try your best and learn everything there is to possibly know about getting a GED. A high school diploma or a GED is more than a necessity in the work industry. It's a requirement; in fact, some employers wont hire you unless you have a GED and work experience.

But I wish you the best of luck Dragon and hope things work out for you. Just take it one step at a time and strive to accomplish whatever you set out to do.

i have studied somewhat. (hard keeping my mind on the book. its boring) and iv passed online practice tests several times.
thanks for all the input and support. its much appreciated
