In this example, both students would need to retake some or all of the GED Test. Tom would have to retake Math and get at least a 40 on it. Suzie passed all parts of the test, but needs 20 more points overall to get her GED diploma. She can retake as many parts as she chooses in order to gain points to pass. WHAT IF I HAVE TO RETEST? It is recommended that the examinee prepare for re-testing by studying at an adult education program or with a certified teacher. The examinee will receive a re-test letter that must be presented at the time of registration. Without a re-test letter the waiting period to re-test is 6 months. Results of the GED Test taken at other test centers must be sent to NHC Community Education by mail. Re-takes cannot be taken until the test report is received from the forwarding test center. WHAT IS THE COST OF THE TEST?
WHEN & WHERE IS THE TEST GIVEN? Weekend testing is held on Friday or Thursday night from 5 p.m. - 10 p.m. & Saturday from 8:30 a.m. - 3:00 p.m. at the main campus of North Harris College.
