[lisa9047]

[kitticat0904]

Passed all subjects first time but math. Took the math another three times ( within two years time), found your videos and took your advice and passed math with a 430! Thanks for doing what you do, your videos were very helpful! It wasn't easy, thought I actually failed again, but I did it! God bless!

[ilanomadvideo]

@kitticat0904 great job - thanks for the positive comments!

[afrahenna]

Hello! i am a mother of 6 and 2 and havnt been in school for the past 8 years...I would like to get my GED but also i want to pass it well ,not just pass it.....Do u think only preparing from the GED book that u usually get from the library is enought from me to score well?...i am good at maths but my weak point is essay writing as i havnt written anything for the past 8 years..Please help!..

[shaq67ify]

but sir every time i take the GED test their's something new on it like like prediction of time of arrival should i still study what you said this will be my second time takin this test last time i got a 380 i wanna get higher and be done already

[ilanomadvideo]

@shaq67ify there are a few things the test assumes you will be able to do such as feet to yards, minutes to hours, adding subtracting time, etc. However, these are not the core skills being tested

[leoncambero]

I need to purchase the dvd so I can get my ged

[00x98pd]

teacher you are right i missed my GED by 20 points because of the essay, i failed the essay but passed everything else going back to school in Jan.i have been out of school 34 years and i am going to pass my GED.

[shaq67ify]

@00x98pd wish you luck

[vegmadeSA]

So if I focus on Fractions,percents,basic shape measurement,and ratio and proportions,I should be able to pass the math section of the GED?

[ilanomadvideo]

@vegmadeSA that is correct

[shaq67ify]

@vegmadeSA where can i find all of the source you just stated at and explation on how do it

[ilanomadvideo]

@shaq67ify go to the GED Testing Service website - it will tell you the breakdown of the test (types of questions, how many, etc.)

[TheKingEsquire]

I would like to say thank you very much for your information and encouragement, I passed my math today. The world has just be unlocked for me.

[omega1919191919]

[JasionJones]

@ilanomadvideo Is the GED all Multiple choice?

[paolarobles72]

THANKS FOR DOING THIS VIDEO YOU ENCOURAGE ME TO TAKE THE GED TEST AND I WILL....

[pbs92711]

just got my scores i got 550 in science and social studies and 540 in math and reading. the test is not as hard as people make it out to be

[mordeth141]

I just ordered the full course dvd collection... how could I fail now!! I'll post update lol 55 bucks is reasonable

[69Hungboy]

Thanks

[DreamsofCentaurs]

I am taking my reading and science test today. I am ok about the reading (I really love to read and pick up info). But the Science has me a bit worried. then a week from now I take my Social Sciences test, and I'm a little worried about that. I'm not going to take my writing test untill I am sure I'll stay on topic and understand my paragraphs. I am taking a free math class for the GED, but I kinda have to hurry 'cause they're raising the price big time. D:

[tatesaharamusiq]

is the actual Ged test fill in bubbles booklet or on the computer ?

[creedman4400]

@tatesaharamusiq

Well To my knowledge it's multiple choice for most of the test then you have your essay and constitution test

[ilanomadvideo]

@creedman4400 actually the Reading, Social Studies, Science and Writing are all multiple choice, then the Essay is just that , an essay. The math is mostly multiple choice with a few coordinate graphs and a few direct answer questions

[9408patrick]

Wow, I actually feel better about trying to pass it now. Thank you!

[Axel10011]

@9408patrick i will give you a little extra advice about the ged. if you took any high school whatsoever then the only other thing you need to know about how to pass the ged is how to open the door to the room that they are giving it in. lol i was pretty nervous myself but 2 days ago i drove 75 miles just to take it and it was actually far simpler than i had imagined it. you can do it man go for it!! =)

[SocalDNM]

Thanks Man you are great

[DarthNihilus863]

great stuff...im getting ready to take my ged test as well

[akaivan]

[THUMP102]

[robielicious]

Wow thank you for the encouragement! You're not those kind of teachers who will make us feel like sh*t that's why most of us ends up giving up even before taking the test.

[Emo92Fate]

[GiovaniB52]

I wrote an intro ,a 2 body paragraph and a conclusion .....shit ....did i fail??

[niquentae]

@GiovaniB52 yup....it has to have 4 paragraphs and a conclusion. my ged instructor told me that if it doesn't have all the paragraphs, they skip it and fail you for the essay part.

[robertlugo213]

i just saw your videos and they are very helpful.. I am going to take my GED test in a few weeks but i do not feel ready. it's is hard to get a job without a GED. thanks for you vids

[LoneSomeSong]

[Firebirrd85]

I passed it with flying colors. There was NO algebra on the test at all.

[ThePowerOfThr33]

i really needed to hear this. thanks for the encouragement. i've taken the practice test already at a local college. i scored a 530 in social studies-540 in science-450 in language arts- but i only got a 300 in math and thats where im stuck. so im just studying math right now and i plan to take and pass the test within the next couple of weeks....*fingers crossed*

[Firebirrd85]

@ThePowerOfThr33 good luck dude. Trust me, it's easy as hell. You're gonna be suprised when you take it. I passed it my first try.

[PraetorianL33T]

Will my handwriting effect my essay score in anyway?

[ilanomadvideo]

@PraetorianL33T no - but the essay needs to be able to be read!

[TheLance007]

This help me out a lot.I passed the test test on my first try.Its truth in what you are saying about the test.Its not that badd.Thanks!!

[ilanomadvideo]

@TheLance007 thanks for the encouragement! You made my day! I have four students taking the test this week and hope they do as well as you!

[Skripmusic]

Thank you for this video brother. I'm going to be reviewing all your vids

[ilanomadvideo]

@Skripmusic send me your email, I will send you a few practice sheets to dig into

[12GaugeLosAngeles]

the math part is the hardest, it's proven some people learn different. the problem is you fail you repay for whatever you failed in california. any advice?

[mADBLunTS100]

is the test the same in every state or does it vary

[ilanomadvideo]

@mADBLunTS100 the test does not vary by state. Although, there are multiple versions of the test. For example, if you take the test and fail science and math and retake those tests, you will be given a new version.

[mexican01010]

[ilanomadvideo]

@pretty00kitty thanks for the letting my know, congrats!

[DudewithdaShades]

I heard that they're changing the GED program and making it harder. Does anyone know when this will take effect?

[dmana3172]

I enjoyed the video. I'm currently in ABE preparation at College to get the GED before I can enroll for a Degree. I graduated from High School and I was already told a hundred million times that I got a certificate of completion because I couldn't pass the SAT test. However, I looked in my collections and found the High School Transcript and it shows that I graduated in 1991 and was awarded a Standard High School Diploma. Anyway, I hope to do well in GED.

[Spiderwolfcakes]

I'm gonna be hitting some math classes soon hey. feels good to say that

[MrInfamous1984]

Is he right everyone?

[Allina09]

How many can we miss on each section. I think i got them all wrong including my first second and last name.

[MrJoeMontano]

to pass the test, you need to have a lot of faith and a lot of motivation if you really want to pass it. Im lucky that I had all of those

[conbeter69]

I'm worried about the history though this was helpful so i thank you.

[blingdogg]

[newramonnovarro]

I just took the GED math test three weeks ago and I got a 380 and I needed a 410 to pass. I just need the math one and I get my GED. Damn math ive always had trouble with it. LOL

[pretty00kitty]

[daytripper22]

@newramonnovarro same here I have to take only my math part this Saturday!

[revilor234]

I didnt know it was a 5 paragraph essay, I just wrote a 3 paragraph essay (for the GED) but I must have gotten 90% of the multiple choice correct. Am I screwed?!

[TheEliteforce5]

Yep, you are pretty much screwed. I tried to pass the essay too and I didn't pass, because I only wrote four paragraphs.

[ladywilddoc]

Thank you! I've been trying to go back to school for the longest. I was so afraid that I will feel even more stupid.Thanks again for the encouragement. Please pray for me I need my GED really bad.
