The exams offer adults who quit high school prematurely the chance to earn an equivalent credential.

The GED® exam is entirely computer-based, while the HiSET® exam is offered both on-paper and on-computer.

The GED has four separate subtests (modules) that may be completed separately. The four tests cover the subjects of

You can write these modules independently and in any order.

Online Proctored GED and HiSET Exams

Candidates for the California HSE (high school equivalency) credential can now take the GED or HiSET exams in an online format as well. It used to be that, to earn your HSE diploma, you were required to show up in person at one of California’s state-designated testing sites.

Well, that’s changed now! The GED and HiSET exams are available online as well, and an online proctor will monitor the process and guarantee that everything occurs in accordance with the rules. For more information, check out these articles: The online GED test and for the HiSET exam: online proctored HiSET testing.
