In this episode, we talk about the length of the GED test. The GED consists of four independent subtests covering Social Studies (70 minutes), Science (90 minutes), Math (115 minutes), and English Language Arts (150 minutes, including a 10-minute break).

Students can take these subtests individually or together, but it is recommended that they schedule and pay for one subtest at a time. Thus, the entire battery takes a little over 7 hours to complete.

We also discuss GED eligibility and other requirements, such as that most states allow adults aged 18 and over to take the GED without restrictions. However, 16 and 17-year-olds may be eligible with additional requirements.
