that cool I read your profile you taught math for a while by chance would you happen to know what kind of math is going to be on the G.E.D test ...ie....fractions,math equations i will keep looking and take your advice on "pythagorean Patrickjmt" thanks for all your help

@hvacman2010

The math on the GED is presented well on this site: Contemporary's GED Mathematics. Try them, the student section and the practice quizzes and tests.

A local library would probably have books on the GED and material covered.

@hvacman2010

Not yet, I'll be posting more in December when I've some time. Try searching "pythagorean patrickjmt". He does very good videos, too.

nice video on percents I want to get my GED is there any advice you could give me on taking the test ...im going to take it in November

[mathflix1]

@hvacman2010 Great that you're working on getting your GED! The best advice would be to get a GED book (I teach from both of these: GED Mathematics (Steck-Vaughn Ged Series); and, Contemporary's GED Mathematics: Preparation for the High School Equivalency Examination. Both explain the topics necessary, provide practice problems and some practice tests.

Practice, and if you don't understand, find a video on the topic!

All the best to you!
