well im finally going to take my GED. ive been putting it off for awhile.

Went to orlando yesterday with my dad and are friend (my dads all his life mine my whole life etc etc).

he son never graduated or got his GED and hes always been pissed about it. and he offered the follwoing.

1. Buy the study guide

2. Drive me back and forth all three days to take the test (120 miles a day) i dont have insurance at the moment. (****ing Hartford wont insure my truck) and im savign money to get insurance to switch to state farm.

3. upon passing the test. he is going to trade me 2002 Chevy astro LT all wheel drive. for my 1994 GMC sierra.

4. He is going to get me a job at Lockheed Martin.

before the comments about dropping out start. my father became disabled and i took a full time job to pay the bills and support me and him. there was no time to continue going to school as it was a 60 mile drive each way and was a 10 hour school day.

overall im just looking for people's experience with the test. and what the best study guide is

its not that hard.

i dropped out when i was 15 , iirc. i had to take pre-ged classes to be able to take the test. then i had to take the TABE test (i think thats what it was called) and i passed all the tests with a 12th year 9th month score. took the GED and made an average score.

i never took algebra classes and hated them with a passion, only pre algebra and i was fine with that. they give you a calculator. loved science so that portion was fairly easy. i cant use correct punctuation for shit , so im sure i didnt too too well on that portion.

overall , its a fairly easy test as long as you rememeber the basics from school.

good luck.

Ive been meaning to do it but him being able to get me a job at Lockheed Martin makes it worth it to do it now

Sounds like you've grown up since you graduated four years ago. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif
