  • I'm geting better at it now on my reading

  • I'm scared to go back to school to get my GED I'm not a good reader

  • When he said "Getting laid off" they showed a black guy. I'm black but I still think that's funny. I'm sure they didn't do that intentionally, it's a coincidence and it's funny to me.

  • I just took the social studies part and am about to take the reading the first test was simple if you can read and think you will pass i just hope i pass the math part i blow at math but its nothing like i thought it would be

  • i have to get a GED cause my parents were very poor and had no skills and for some reason i was born very smart so i had to skip school everyday to work off the books to help pay bills now im 17 and hopeing to get my GED so i can go to college and make something of myself XD life sucks

  • @thewhitefang16 i feel u man..straight up

  • i graduate high school in My country in Philippines same of my relalatives said i need to take the ged still

  • thank you, it was good

  • Im gonna do it! Thanks for the video

  • Well said my friend

  • another thing, they will try and offer you prep corses which cost about 500$ and take like 3 months. fuck that, like i said, i spent 6 hours studying..i still recomend you study a good week or two, just to be sure. the tests are mostly just common sense, and in 50% of the tests, the answers are right in the questions...

  • 450 is what you need to pass, (450 they say is about 60%) so go figure that out. i say you go and get that shit right now bro, dont waste another 2 years of your time and nerves doing highschool, when you can accomplish the same results in under a month. GO DO IT FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!

  • im 18 in the tenth grade do any ofu guys think i should do this pleses thumb up if yes

  • @ageof4957 dude, let me encourage you right now. i am 20 years old, and a fuckin alcoholic and drug user. i dropped out of gr 9 due to a severe case of social anxiety. that being said, i one day woek up and said fuck this im going to get a diploma (mean while, i was, and still am, getting totally hammered on a daily basis) so i signed up for this ged and spent maybe a total of 6 hours studying for the ged, and surprisingly enough, i scored a 510.

  • A High school diploma is nothing like the GED. With the GED you are there studying and the learning is there with you. For your HS diploma you are in class and then when you get your diploma, what you study you don't remember most of it. At least with the GED you know you have learned. Taking the GED is harder then just getting a HS diploma.

  • Not only that. In high school, you study in subjects that aren't practical in the real world.

  • true words of wisdom.

  • Rosa Parks is my hero.

  • GED is inferior compared to a Diploma.

  • Comment removed

  • @45678975011 You said the same thing on that other video, you are pathetic. Getting a D average and passing high school doesn't make you smarter than someone with a GED buddy.

  • I had a learning disability,there was no help in my time,I learned nothing in special ed.

    I learned more in GED classes than special ed. I was told by a reading specialist

    I would be wasting my time going for a GED.I passed it.I will never be sorry I did it.

  • I pray and wish my daughter would finish her home schooling.She is so depressed and won't even try.She won't even go to a shrink for help.

  • i really thank you for makeing this video my fear is gone im 16 in the 9th grade im getting my ged next year and i havent paid attetion in class in over 5 years i hate school and its not for my i goin to get my ged and go to wyo tech and specialize in BMW thank you very much

  • What I hate is that the G.E.D. has lower credit than HSD. Just cause you do the ged doesnt mean your a highschool dropout. for example i left the country after 10th grade. now i live in florida again and have to take it cause im 19 and they woulnd let me do last HS year. In germany I succesfuly completed first year of mechatriction wich is both auto mech and elec etc. but then i decited i wanted back so now im training and hoping i can get into Green Berets.

  • GED doesn't make you stupid. There are people who graduated from HS, and isn't making nothing of themselves. There are successful people who obtained their GED and very successful in life.

  • Yeah Judge Mathis got his GED and he is smarter than alot of other people! GED requires you know everything it takes to get a HS diploma.

  • i got my GED high and drunk bitches.

  • Everything this video said is correct.. I put off getting my GED because i was afraid i would fail, or afraid it would be to hard. I never went to high school. I was stupid skipped school and got held back enough to where i was 17 when i was in 9th grade.. So i just dropped out, i finally told myself to go do the GED. I took the pre-test and got high scores, passed it and i got a refund for my GED. I took the test yesturday and i passed the GED. I didnt even study, so its not to bad

  • Good for you!!!!

  • @1ownjoo2 i hope your right, im just plain stupid.

  • @MrNicktheparakeet

    Well im not stupid, i just didnt like school, i got teased alot and then my dad died, and i missed alot of school so when i was in 9th grade and 2 years older then people i said f this and just dropped out. 4 years passed and i decided to get my GED and i didnt study at all for it, and passed it well above the scores needed to pass. So im not dumb just didnt get my HSD. I think you'll be fine

  • I have my struggles with science and math but I enjoy reading, writing, and social security

  • Nazis i fucking hate this world i hope it BURNS!

  • In most states, You can still earn your Highschool diploma before you are the age of 21. just letting you guys know, and its easyer than a G. E . D. because its based on Credits. ( homework )  YOu need a certain number of Credits to qualify for your diploma, and its so easy. Easyer than the G.E.D. if you don't mind doing, Packets and packets of work. But trust me, its worth it.

  • Its spelled (Easier) please stay in school.

  • earn your diploma before 21? or go to real school before 21? Going to real school is MUCH more rewarding than a stupid piece of paper like a GED.

  • you obviously have no idea what your talking about, Until them please shut up, thanks.

  • nope its you who don't know what he's talking about. You don't even know how to spell "easier." You kept spelling it "easyer." And I know it's not a typo 'cuz you continued to spell it that way. So until you know what YOU'RE talking about and use a spell checker, YOU SHUT THE FUCK UP!

  • it's* because*

  • well you do not know how to spell either TriloMagic! IT isn't "cuz" its because!!!!! so shut up! do things right before you judge others!

  • lol "cuz" is a slang or shortcut for "because." Only nerds actually TALK with proper grammer. And he or she wasn't judging others, that person was juding HIM/HER! Stop being a hypocrite or YOU shut the fuck up!

  • @TriloMagic Yeah tell that to my cousin who obtained his GED and went to college and is now in law school. Going to real school is drama, drugged, and pathetic. Its hard to learn in a system where the teachers could care less about what you actually want to do. And the High School Diploma is on a piece of paper also, your really dumb for saying that. Did you not listen to this video at all?

  • thanks people

  • If you have trouble with the essay just make something up. You don't have to believe anything you write, as long as you can make it sound convincing. I wrote my essay about the character development of Woody in Toy Story and got a 720.

  • you fuckers need to understand a GED is equal to a High school diploma it is not an easy way out it is damn hard and thats not fair they treat it as less bogus shit. I have Aspergers School is vary hard for me to cope with if it was not for online school i would have definitely gotten my GED. luckily though i think i will get my High school diploma though this year. but that's bull shit some of us wouldn't be able to get the jobs we want

  • THANK YOU YOU GIVE ME MORE CONFIDENCE AND I APPRECIATE IT.

    srry bout the caps was to lazy to rewrite lol

  • What's the point of a fucking essay. I failed english cause of that shit. I can write a essay but they ones they choose for me I usually thing... WTF How am I suppose to write a page about that.

  • just write whats comes in mind

  • THANKS!!!

  • well i was scared i do have fear of taking it but now i feel a lil better due to this video.... its true people have fear of doing it but it iz what it iz i have to dream big

  • Very nice video, thanks for putting it up! I'm going to take my GED test next week, I've been putting it off for a year or two but really need to get to it. I have had the same fear mentioned in the video, it's stupid but it's easy to procrastinate and hide from it. I'm a little anxious still but I'm confident that I can at least get a passing score, math is the thing I'm mainly worried about. I've never been good with numbers, but everything else I'm fine with, especially reading etc.

  • That looks like a $10 Indian Head Eagle being deposited into the piggy bank at 0:49. Those have not been produced in 77 years and are difficult to find today (not to mention worth a small fortune).

  • i got mine years ago so it could have changed, but the GED test was easy as fuck; if you don't have one take a shot at the test- all you need is middle school math skills and reading comprehension (for "history", you just read a passage about the past, and then answer questions about it).

  • I found out I passed the G.E.D test yesterday. I will get my certificate in the mail in 4-6 weeks.

    I only studied for the math and wrote practice essays for 4 days ,then I took the tests. I passed my first time and I haven't been to school in 12 years.( I dropped out in 9th grade.)

    To those of you who want your G.E.D, I suggest you just go take the test. You might just pass the first time around with a lil bit of studying.

    You don't need luck,you need to register to take the test.!

  • video was good until cheesy Michael Jordan dunk music at 3:17

  • NOT THAT HARD IF YOU STUDY HARD AND TRY

  • Was the test really hard? did anyone pass it?

  • yeah im going to pass it and im only 16

  • Sounds like you need it yourself

  • IAM  TAKING MY GED TEST TODAY

  • is the Ged hard? What about the math part? Did you prepare for it?

  • Math part is the hardest

  • I HATE MATH!!

  • I'm pretty sure that I was withdrawn today, as my Girlfriend called me whilst waiting for someone to come and pick me up...assholes took way too long to get here and yeah...So how hard would it be for myself; an 11th grader?

  • now watch lol its gonna be everything the video says its not

  • it was harder to get my GED because i left school after the 9th grade.

  • how long it took you to get your GED?

  • i recieved my certificate abour 6 weeks after the day i took the test.good luck.

  • first i wana say congrats and also i wanted to know if the test was hard because i also didnt finish 9th grade so i'm looking to take it

  • i can say yes it was hard.i was a gang member at the time and failed to successfully intergrate into a institutionalized form of education.truthfully i would have preferred to stay in school,but you do what you have to.you can do it..surround yourself with postive people who will support you.godspeed.

  • I dropped out in 9th grade and I passed the test the first time. Don't worry the test is not that difficult. Just go take it if you haven't already.

  • thanks i passed last week first time .

  • Congrats. :)

  • im scared to take it cause i hear it costs about 110 dollars nonrefundable if you fail and to a high school dropout thats alot of money. =[

  • Good job, im in 9th grade im thinking of dropping

  • Yo i dropped out in the 10th, currently 16 and im currently going to take the test in two weeks.

    Man I scored 400-600 on the pre tests, its very easy.

    just basic education

  • you should go to real school while you still can and have fun while you still can. Without real school, and especially being an adult, it's TOTALLY not the same and definitly not as much fun as being a real teenager in a real school.

  • lol if your a person with morals ,highschool aint the place buddy in california..lol the influence there is the main reason why people fail at school..

  • DON'T DROP OUT! Trust me! Look at my video titled "GED is equivalent to a diploma but..." on my youtube videos for WHY you should NOT drop out. You lose a WHOLE LOT MORE than just a piece of paper!

  • Yeah you do, but using that GED to get into a college wear you can make more friends kind of defeats the purpose. And even if the person didn't go to college there's always jobs.

  • @TriloMagic And you completely went off topic when you went towards that guys' spelling to redeem your self. Kinda pathetic if you ask me, because you KNEW what he meant and what he was talking about. So you do a childish act to make yourself seem even more stupid ; fail. Do extensive research on the GED before you try to dawg it you fucktard.

  • great thanks alot
