The GED^® test consists of four exams designed by the American Council on Education to measures “knowledge and skills at a range of complexity and difficulty levels that are covered across multiple high school grades,” according to the GED^® Testing Service, which administers the test.

A GED^® is a popular matric alternative. It is a grade 12 equivalency* credential recognised in SA, accepted by TVET colleges and online universities.

The GED^® is accepted at many tertiary institutions around the world due to the high level of its standards.

*SAQA (the South African Qualifications Authority) has evaluated the GED^® and found the National Senior Certificate as its closest comparable qualification.

The GED^® alone is usually adequate for candidates wanting to study at colleges – so you should always check first.

Those wishing to apply to study at university need to first qualify for exemption from USAF.

PLEASE NOTE: You MUST check with the universities of your choice that they will accept these foreign qualifications. A matric with exemption or in this case a GED^® plus a certificate of exemption is the minimum requirement for admission to a university. Faculties may set additional requirements for admission to their degree courses. Please feel free to contact us for more guidance on this as we know the system and will be able to assist you in getting into a university.

The GED^®’s four exams are designed to measure high school knowledge and skills levels. The exams, and the times you’ll be given to take each one, are:

Reasoning Through Language Arts (RLA), 155 minutes, including a 10-minute break, which focuses on the ability to: read closely and determine the details being stated, make logical inferences from it, and answer questions about what you’ve read; write clearly using a keyboard (demonstrating the use of technology) and provide a relevant analysis of a text, using evidence from the text; and edit and demonstrate an understanding of the use of standard written English, including grammar, capitalization, and punctuation. Don’t be deterred by the use of a keyboard! Our students are 21 Century Learners and it is important for them to master this. WE have an excellent program that will assist them in mastering this skill!

Social Studies, 75 minutes, which includes multiple-choice, drag-and-drop, hot spot, and fill-in-the-blank questions focusing on U.S. history, economics, geography, civics, and government.

Science, 90 minutes, where you’ll answer questions related to life, physical, and earth and space science.

Mathematical reasoning, 120 minutes, which is composed of algebraic and quantitative problem-solving questions. You’ll be able to use an online calculator or a handheld TI-30XS Multiview scientific calculator during this portion of the test.

We help students to meet the demands of the GED^® course, by setting up an individualized learning plan for each student.

A placement test

In order to set up a personalized learning plan for each of our students, we need to know each student’s strengths and weaknesses. Our diagnostic tests quickly assess student proficiency on each skill needed to successfully complete their GED^®. This diagnostic tests will identify the areas where learning gaps exists. Once the diagnostic tests have been completed by the student, results are sent to their parent/s or tutor and students are ready to start on their personalized learning plan. We will automatically assign the appropriate lessons to target each student's missing skills. These learning gaps causes unnecessary stress in students and cause them to fail. Constantly failing, can cause students to lose interest and has a negative effect on their self esteem. WE CAN AND WILL FIX THIS! Our approach has been highly effective and we boast with a 100% pass rate.
