GED Classes Schenectady, New York

Last Updated on April 12, 2024.

Here, we post all GED class locations and testing sites in the Schenectady area. New York State is using the GED test for its high school equivalency testing program.

The GED test gives adults who didn’t graduate high school an extra chance to earn an equivalent degree.

Testing takes place at a similar level as what is expected of graduating high school seniors.

Over the years 2014 through 2021, New York offered the TASC exam for high school equivalency (HSE) testing, but this was discontinued by the end of 2021.

If you attained passing scores on parts of the TASC exam, don’t worry; these are also good for the GED test!

The GED® (General Education Development) test includes four separate sub-exams in the subject areas of
