The current version of the GED test is expiring at the end of 2013, and your scores will expire too if you don’t finish and pass the GED test by then. If you act soon, you won’t have to re-take the parts of the GED test you’ve already passed. Don’t miss this chance to turn one small step into your next big opportunity in life. You’re almost there!
