The GED is a series of tests designed to provide an opportunity for adults who have not graduated from high school to earn a State of Florida High School diploma by measuring the major academic skills and knowledge associated with a high school program. The GED Tests include the following subject area tests:

• Language Arts, Reading
   
• Language Arts, Writing
• Mathematics
• Social Studies
• Science

The following are the application requirements to register for the GED:

• Be a Florida resident.
   
• Be at least 18 years old at the time of application (students under 18 years of age must take the Official G. E. D. Practice Test and obtain an age waiver)
• Have a legal photo-identification card showing age in one of the following formats:
  • State of Florida Drivers License
  • State of Florida Identification Card
• Have a social security card or letter from the Social Security Administration showing a social security number.
• Not be enrolled in an accredited high school unless in an approved drop out prevention program.

To earn a State of Florida High School Diploma you must:

• Earn a standard score of at least 410 on each of the five GED subtests, AND
   
• Earn an overall score of 2250 or higher.
   
• Students who pass the test are given a State of Florida High School Diploma and an Official GED Transcript. Scores are typically available within 8-12 weeks after the test date.
   
• If the student fails to earn scores high enough to receive a diploma, he/she can retake all or selected subject area tests to achieve passing scores. Testing centers may require students who fail the test to enroll in preparation classes or wait a pre-determined amount of time before attempting to re-test. Students may test a maximum of three times in a single year and only once on a single test form.
