    • Courses

On January 26, 2016, I watched live as the GED Testing Service announced major changes to the GED exam.  After two years of study, the Testing Service has decided to not just change the performance level indicators, but they also have determined the passing school was forcing GED graduates to actually met a much higher performance standard than their high school graduate counterparts.

In this episode, I explain the details and show how the GED might just be a better indicator of college and technical schools readiness than today's high school diploma.
