Are you ready to try a new approach to passing the GED Test?


This week's Video of the Week is an example of what is at the base of everything I have done since 2001.  It is how I have helped thousands of people to pass the GED Test.  It's why the Get Your GED Now Test Preparation Series really gets results for you.  That result is you passing the GED Test!  My plan doesn't involve grinding you down with useless worksheets and busy work.  If you're sick of trying the same ol' thing and getting the same ol' result - then it's time to try something different.  Enjoy the video below!

GED Video of the Week: February 23, 2015


I was stunned to read a tweet about the drastic drop in successful GED candidates in 2014.  The number I read was 85,000.  85,000.  85,000?
That was down from 475,000 successful GED candidates in the year before, 2013.  Well, there is not time to bemoan statistics.  I want to get down to work with people who are ready to get serious about preparing for this test and then passing this test.

I spend so much time talking about math - because it is needed - but I want to shift gears to writing.  There are three separate writing assignments on the GED Test.  
  • The Extended Response section of the RLA
  • The response to the prompt on the Social Studies Test
  • The Short Answer response on the Science Test
This week's video talks about the Extended Response section of the RLA.

Algebra and the New GED Test - 2014 Version

Math continues to be the number one sticking point for adults hoping to pass the new GED Test.  The fact that the test is now 55% Algebra is all the more daunting for most.  On the previous version, there was Algebra on the test, to be sure.  But, it was only 25% (the average of a 20-30% range) of the test.  You could actually pass the GED Math Test without knowing any Algebra.  The Math passing standard was as low as getting 60% of the test correct.  So, even if you got 25% of the test (Algebra) completely wrong, there was still hope to pass the test.

Enough dwelling on the past.  This is a new year with a new test.  Watch the video below to learn how to attack Linear Equations.
