First, familiarize yourself with some of the basics of the test and make sure you are receiving our latest updates.  \n✔ Subscribe to the email newsletter, In Session, to get test updates, helpful resources and program news.  \n✔ Look through our student study guides. These provide an overview of the skills being tested and include sample problems for each skill.  \n2. Once you know the basics, now it is time to better understand the student experience [in GED.com](in GED.com).  \n✔ Feel free to create your own account in [GED.com](GED.com) so you understand what your students will go through (please list your last name as “Candidate” so we know you are an instructor) .  \n✔ Checkout the Study tab in your account to learn about 7 different learning preferences and take the assessment.  \n✔ Take the free practice test so you understand the format of the test and the different types of questions.  \n✔ Finally, consider taking a GED Ready® test, the official GED® practice test. This is half the length of the GED® test and is highly predictive of how students will perform on the actual test.  \n— Make sure you review your detailed score report.
