Although the GED test represents less of a time commitment than a high school diploma, it's not academically easier. The test is graded on an equivalency scale compared to current high school students. To pass, test takers must perform on a level comparable to or above 60% of high school seniors.

Made up of four subject area tests, the GED tests include the following subjects: 

Test	Exam Length	Fees
Reasoning through Language Arts (RLA)	155 minutes	$35
Mathematical Reasoning	95  minutes	$35
Science	120 minutes	$35
Social Studies	75  minutes	$35
Total: $140

In addition to multiple-choice and short-form answers, the test also includes extended response question-and-answer formats. Individuals considering taking the GED test need to study. The test is available in Spanish, as well.
