When I first came to Academy of Hope, I did very well in class. My reading score was 205 and my math score was 196. I went to level B but I want to try to get to level C. I know I’m going to get there. In Washington, D.C., students can earn their GED if they pass four subtests. The exam can be taken online or in person at designated testing centers. The GED exam contains four subjects that you must pass: math, science, social studies and language arts.
What is the lowest passing score for GED? On each test, you’ll receive a score between 100 and 200. And you need to score a 145 to pass and earn your diploma. Altogether, you should be able to get your GED within a few short weeks. However, you need to have good reading skills and understand the vocabulary that’s often found on the GED test. You also need some knowledge of math.
What is the hardest part of the GED? Typically, the math exam is the most challenging. If you score under 145 in any subject, you can retake that test. Retesting is an option for you.
Academy of Hope offers free programs to D.C. residents over the age of 18. They are located at 421 Alabama Ave. SE.
