GED Challenge 800
Many people interested in taking and passing the GED examination would like
to continue with their education by enrolling in college classes. These
intensive classes are designed specifically for those students who would like to
pass the GED with higher scores and become better prepared for college entrance
examinations as well.
Unlike many classes offered throughout the city, each of these classes is
subject-specific and requires a minimum of nine classroom hours each week for
eight weeks. During those eight weeks, students will work hard to make academic
progress while also receiving instruction and guidance in study skills.
Instructors do not act as tutors but rather lecture and guide students through
the material; regular homework, quizzes, and tests are part of this experience.
Class participation is a must, and students can expect their readiness for
college classes to increase in direct relation to their efforts in these
classes.
Before enrolling, interested students must take a free practice GED
assessment examination. All examinations are given by appointment only, and the
program manager will provide individualized guidance to all prospective students
who take the assessment exam. Students who do not meet the minimum entry score
for this program will be referred to centers and agencies providing a more
appropriate level of GED instruction.
The GED Challenge 800 program includes the classes listed below.
- GED Challenge 800—Reading
- GED Challenge 800—Writing
- GED Challenge 800—Mathematics
