How to Best Use a GED Practice Test

Using a free GED practice test is a great way to prepare for your upcoming exam. A GED practice test online will help you narrow down your studies and recognize which areas you may need to spend more time studying.

We recommend the following steps when using our GED sample tests:

  1. Take the general GED practice exam above to become familiar with the questions and their format
  2. Take the subject specific free GED tests online that are also linked above to get a better feel for each subject
  3. Determine which subjects you struggled with the most and spend extra time studying topics, concepts, and questions within those subjects

Some other things you should pay special attention to while using GED practice are the following:

Answer Explanations

You should review all the answer explanations at the end of your practice exam. These answer explanations will help you better understand important concepts and topics. You may even learn a better or faster way of solving a problem.

You should utilize the answer explanations for ALL questions you answered, regardless of if they were answered correctly or incorrectly.

Trends

When taking a practice GED test, do you see any trends or patterns in your results? Are you continuously missing a certain type of math problem or a specific type of language arts problem?

Be honest with yourself and see if you can identify any trends that you can address while studying. This will not only help you study more efficiently, but also help you achieve better GED scores.

Timing

Be aware of how much time you are spending on each question. The GED is a timed exam and many students struggle with the timing aspect of this exam. It is fine to ignore the timing aspect the first couple of times you take a GED sample test, but you should eventually introduce a timing aspect.

Try to find the fastest way possible to solve a problem and make sure it is a repeatable method for you. If you can find methods to solve problems that are both repeatable and speedy, you will be in a great place when taking the actual exam.
