GED CLasses and the Final GED Examination
San Juan College offers both preparation classes as well as the GED Final Examination.
You have a choice in 2013!
Until December 2013, you may choose to either take the GED “paper/pencil” or the computer-based test. Beginning in January 2014, ALL GED testing will be computer-based; therefore, candidates must pass the entire battery of exams, no matter what method is used, before the end of 2013.
