GED High School Equivalency Test - Mathematical Reasoning, Reasoning Through Language Arts, Social Studies, Science — GED Testing Service

The GED is a four-subject high school equivalency test from the GED Testing Service: Mathematical Reasoning, Reasoning Through Language Arts, Social Studies and Science. Each subject is scored from 100 to 200 and 145 earns the credential. The real test mixes multiple choice with drag-and-drop, fill-in and short-answer items and an essay. SummitCert's portal is a study aid with exam-style questions and explanations, flashcards, a practice set and progress tracking; it does not reproduce the real test format.

The GED has four separately scored subjects: Mathematical Reasoning (115 minutes), Reasoning Through Language Arts (150 minutes including a 45-minute extended-response essay), Social Studies (70 minutes) and Science (90 minutes), taken on the same or different days (GED.com). Each subject is scored on a 100 to 200 scale and a score of at least 145 on every subject earns the credential; GED College Ready is 165 to 174 and College Ready + Credit is 175 to 200. This portal is a study aid: its 160-question practice set is multiple choice and does not reproduce the real test's item types or essay. You need a score of at least 145 on each of the four subjects. Scores are not averaged across subjects, so you can pass subjects on different days. GED College Ready is 165 to 174 and GED College Ready + Credit is 175 to 200. GED.com says the price varies by state and links to a cost-by-state page; its guidance puts the total at roughly $120 to $200 for all four subjects, with retake fees from $0 to $40 per subject depending on state. The content outline spreads questions across 14 areas; the largest are Social Studies: Civics and Government (12.5%); Reasoning Through Language Arts: Using Evidence to Understand, Analyze and Create Arguments (11.3%); Science: Life Science (10.0%). The full list of areas and weights is on the portal exam page. Age, residency and education rules are set by each state or jurisdiction, so confirm them on your state's GED page before you register.
