In order to get a GED you must do whatever your state requires usually the requirement involves taking tests and passing them in  Math, English, Science, and Social Studies, but you can only take them if you are 18 years old or older. Both my children due to health and mental problems chose non-traditional ways to finish high school. My son chose the GED route and passed all tests the first time around at age 19. My daughter home schooled the last two years of high school, but I had to get a state license to home school so that she would be able to get a  high school diploma through the home school program. Colleges accept this method however you must present through essays or home school transcripts proof that you have an education. Best of luck in what ever you choose to do.

The school, such as the vocational and technical school where the GED test is given, should have a bulletin board with ads from other students offering tutoring for a payment per hour basis. Try to find a cute girl to tutor you...hehe\n\nThe internet sites , such as the one I list, are also very good

This depends on your age and how much of your high school education you finished.  Be wary of places that offer diplomas on line for high school or college.  Check to make sure they are accredited , otherwise your diploma will be worthless to the colleges.  The quickest way is to ask your local college if they would accept a diploma from that place.  They do know who is accredited and who isnt.  You can study for your GED at home, but the test is taken on site.  Check with your local library, or high school often they offer GED tutoring after school and at night.  If you are under 21 and only have a few classes to complete you may be able to finish them at the high school as a part time student.  Some community colleges have high school classes as opposed to GED.

I am not sure about the website, but i am from ny and as far as I know you can't get your ged at 16 if you quit, you have to wait or take classes.  You might as well stay in school.

I thinkt they have an age limit for school.  You can get your GED though.  If Mike Tyson can pass his GED, anybody can.

GED\nEligibility: Students who take the GED exams must not be enrolled in or graduated from high school, must be over the age of sixteen, and must meet other state requirements. \n\nRequirements: The GED is awarded when a student passes a series of tests in five academic subjects. In order to pass each test, the student must score higher than 60% of the sample set of graduating seniorsGenerally, students need to spend a considerable amount of time studying for the exams. \n\nLength of study: Students are not required to take traditional courses in order to earn their GED. The examinations take seven hours and five minutes cumulatively. Students may need to take preparation courses in order to get ready for the exams. However, this is not mandatory.\n\nReception at the office: The majority of employers hiring at entry-level positions will consider a GED score as comparable to an actual diploma. A small number of employers will consider the GED inferior to a diploma. If a student continues school and receives a college degree, his employer will probably not even consider how he completed his high school education.\n\nReception at the college: Most community colleges admit students who have received a GED. Individual universities have their own policies. Many will accept students with a GED. However, some colleges will not view it as equivalent to a diploma, particularly if they require specialized courses of study for admittance. In many instances, a traditional diploma will be viewed as superior.\n\nHigh School Diploma\nEligibility: Laws vary from state to state, but most schools will permit students to work on completing their high school diploma at a traditional public school for 1-3 years after they turn eighteen. Special community schools and other programs often provide older students the opportunity to complete their work. School diplomas do not generally have minimum age requirements. \n\nRequirements: In order to receive a diploma, students must complete coursework as dictated by their school district. Curriculum varies from district to district.\n\nLength of study: Students generally take four years to complete their diploma.\n\nReception at the office: A high school diploma will allow students to operate in many entry-level positions. Generally, employees with diplomas will earn significantly more than those without. Students who wish to advance in a company may need to attend college for additional training.\n\nReception at the college: Most students admitted to colleges have earned a high school diploma. However, a diploma does not guarantee acceptance. Factors such as grade point average, coursework, and extracurricular activities will weigh into admissions decisions

I would say it would be easier to just sign up and take the ged in your area.  if you're worried you won't remember all the math and stuff you need to know, then your local bookstore should have a ged prep book.  that way you can brush up without having to actually go to the ged classes.  i'm not sure how the at home high school diplomas work, but each state has different requirements for high school graduation so i wouldn't trust it.  if you are thinking of going onto a community or technical college neither one would give you an advantage over another and at a 4 yr school the ged might actually help you qualify for more schloarships for "non traditional" students.  good luck

Nope. You only get a "high school" diploma from a high school. You can get a GED on your own.

With a GED, you have opened a door for yourself.  I would recommend taking the ACT to find out level you are at in English and Math.  This will give you an idea of where you stand and what course work will help you succeed. If you score on college level great.  If not, go to community college.  They have prep courses designed to get you to college level. I would take the prep courses before continuing with other classes if you need them. While it is true, some colleges will accept you with a GED and a good ACT score, you may want to still consider community college.  It's a great deal and a stepping point to go on to a great university and it will lower your over all costs.  If you have a stellar GPA after a semester or two of community college, you can opt to transfer to a four year university. Good GPA's equal scholarship money, so keep your course load light enough that you can handle.  You only need to take 12 credit to be considered full time.  That's 4 classes, most colleges will try to get you to carry 5.  Good luck in your journey.
