Before You Test

Adult
Education

Before taking the GED® test in Arkansas, you must take and pass the official GED® Practice Test (GED Ready™) at an approved Adult Education Center or GED Testing Center™. If you do not make the minimum required score to go on to take the GED® test, you can enroll in an adult education program in or near your community and receive free instruction to help prepare you to pass the GED® test. GED® study guides are also available in your local library, computer software store, or bookstore.
