GED Testing Program Information
The GED examination is comprised of five sub-tests: language arts writing (two-parts), language arts reading, social studies, science, and a two-part mathematics subtest. All sub-tests are multiple-choice, grid response, or written essay.
Official GED Test Passing Scores
Candidates who pass the GED Examination receive a State of Florida High School Diploma from the Florida Department of Education. The passing scores are 410 on each of the five sub-tests with an overall minimum score of 2250, therefore requiring scores above the minimum on most sub-tests to pass the examination.
Test results are mailed to the candidate within 7 to 10 weeks from the exam date.
Official GED Practice Test
Applicants are strongly encouraged to take the Official GED Practice Test prior to taking the Official GED Examination. Results of the GED Practice Test give an excellent indication of potential success on the GED Examination and can identify any areas where scores could be improved. The Official GED Practice Test is free and can be scheduled at the Levy Center. Students who follow the CF Levy Center success plan have a 99% pass rate.
