What is the GED?
The GED (General Educational Development) is a high school equivalency credential that certifies an individual's academic skills and knowledge equivalent to a high school graduate. The GED exam comprises four subjects: math, science, language arts, and social studies. The GED is recognized as a high school equivalency credential by colleges, employers, and government agencies in the United States and Canada.
NEW High School Equivalency (HSE) noncredit program (in-person)
We are excited to announce that the current GED preparation program has transitioned to in-person noncredit college classes. This means that students preparing for the GED will have access to all the college events and resources a credit college student has access to.

145 is a passing score on each of the four GED exams. Students who score 145-200 on their practice GED exam are categorized as "likely to pass."
Practice Scores meaning
|
Likely to pass (145-200) |
Too close to call (134-144) |
Not likely to pass (100-133) |
| Students who score in this range should take |
As you are preparing for each subject in class each student will take practice tests to measure progress. Once a student scores in the "Likely to Pass" score range the instructor will recommend that the student take the official GED exam.
Every student will create a Ged.com account to schedule each official one-subject exam. Students must arrive at the Palo Verde College Pearson Certified Testing Center 10-15 minutes before the scheduled exam time.
Students must provide appropriate identification upon check in. If a student is a new resident of California and doesn't have a ID, they must provide appropriate documentation to prove their residency.
CASAS Assessment Test
Introducing the CASAS Assessment Test - an invaluable tool designed to assess students' proficiency in all four GED subjects. Unlike traditional placement tests, this comprehensive assessment empowers instructors to tailor an efficient and personalized approach to academic instruction. By understanding each student's strengths and areas for improvement, educators can guide them towards greater success. Moreover, the CASAS test offers students a valuable baseline to monitor their progress as they embark on their journey to GED achievement. Unleash the potential within, supported by data-driven insights and a roadmap for academic growth.
