GED Classes Carson City, Nevada

Last Updated on April 11, 2024.

This article posts all GED test centers and prep facilities in the Carson City region. Nevada offers two options for High School Equivalency testing: the GED and HiSET tests.

Both options are available at official Nevada testing centers and in an online format. Check below to read more about online HiSET and GED testing.

The assessments give adults who never finished high school one more shot at securing an equivalent diploma.

Both tests assess knowledge at a level similar to what students must master upon graduating from high school.

GED® testing includes four subtests measuring knowledge of:

• Math
• Science
• English Language Arts
• Social Studies

These modules can be completed separately and in any order.

The HiSET® comes with individual reading and writing tests (so five overall) that can be taken separately as well.

The HiSET is available on paper and in a computerized format, while the GED is taken exclusively on a computer.

You can read more about GED Nevada qualification criteria, testing costs, or scoring in this post: GED Testing In Nevada.

Launching Online GED and HiSET Testing

Until recently, the GED and HiSET exams had to be dealt with exclusively at state-approved HSE testing sites. That has, fortunately, changed with the launch of online testing options for both the GED and the HiSET exams.

You can learn more about online proctored HiSET testing on this page: The HiSET-At-Home Exam. Information about online GED testing is available here: Launching the online GED exam.
