GED

Here at Bamberg/Barnwell Adult Education we’re
excited to offer you the GED program and a
​fighting chance at a good job with good wages. 

How can your program help me get a GED?
We pre-test all students to gain knowledge about the students’ math
and reading abilities relative to the GED test. We schedule classes according to the
scoring level on the test. We continue this service until the student achieves
a test score needed for GED passage.  We also offer official GED practice tests so students know
what to expect.  We then help them get signed up to take the GED.

What is the GED test like?
The GED test has been updated to make sure it measures what graduating
high school seniors know and what colleges and employers will expect of you.
Four (4) parts:
 Reasoning Through Language Arts (150 minutes including a 10-minute break), 
Mathematical Reasoning (115 minutes), Science (90 minutes), Social Studies (70 minutes).

What is the passing score?
On the GED test, you need to earn at least 145 points on each subject to pass.
To find out if you’re likely to pass, take GED Ready: The Official Practice Test and the only
test that can tell you if you’re likely to pass.
