How to Obtain a GED in Philadelphia, PA
To pass the test, Pennsylvania requires a passing score of 2250 total points. Each test score can be no lower than 410 points. This means that each of the five tests should have an average score of 450 in order to meet the 2250 total. Upon completion of the GED test, you will be awarded Commonwealth Secondary School Diploma. If the diploma is lost, it cannot be reissued. However, if you fail, you can retest up to three times a year.
The Community College of Philadelphia offers preparation classes for the GED test. These classes usually start in January, May, July, and September. There is a fee of $30 per class, but it is waived for those that are unemployed or on public assistance. You will have to purchase your own textbooks. The classes can be taken at their main campus, regional centers or neighborhood locations. Each class starts with an assessment of your skills so you can start where you need to. Once you take all the classes and pass the test, you are eligible to participate in a graduate ceremony given by the Community College of Philadelphia. To register, visit the Community College of Philadelphia's main campus or regional center. There are no mail or phone registrations. For more information call the GED HOTLINE at 215-751-8376.
