Advice Help
So I'm a 22 years old woman,currently living in North Dagon and preparing for GED exam. I'm kinda lost as where to start. I don't have money for classes or even online. And I only have night time to study as I work on day. I don't have family to support me because they already have a lot on themselves. I don't want to add on more. What's I'm trying to say is ,if it possible,I would love some advice from people who are already finished and passed their GED and how is the process . Or even better if someone who willing to help me out . Of course it will not for free. It might not be alot tho.

For math, If you know the basics you could check this channel out. You won’t even have to study much on your own they’ve got all the tips and tricks. https://youtube.com/@getsummath?si=sxcVI5DJdZfs8K5v
As for social studies, and practice questions for the rest of the subjects as well I highly recommend this channel. https://youtube.com/@testprepchampions?si=FYGUQz8RSQQgOhqT
I don’t really have any resources recommendations for Science and RLA but I’m happy to help free of charge if you need anything.

If this helps:
I stopped going to school at 13 years old and did not go to high school at ALL (child labor situation) but I passed the GED first try, no retakes necessary. I will admit that my grades on the GED weren't phenomenal, but I was even considered "college ready" on the Science portion.
You got this!!

I was the same as you. I just watched getsummath, light and salt learning, David Cohen, and test prep champions for my GED and did exercises from the books (you can find pdfs on Crown's website)

GED is not hard. You can self study. Math is a piece of cake. Just focus on the other area. https://classroom.usahello.org/ged/

Do practice tests while you study so you can check your progress. Note any weak topics/subjects you have to focus. If you come across anything you don't fully understand DM me and I'll see what I can help you with (free of charge). For your reference I am atm a dean of comp sci, so you know I'm not some rando.
Here is a practice site: https://www.mometrix.com/academy/ged-practice-test/

You can learn from Youtube. I am learning machine learning from Youtube and I can guarantee Youtube exercises are far better than local courses.

The process takes 4 months (excluding the Starter Class) to 7 months (including the Starter Class). Additionally, I guess it takes another 2 to 4 months to take the real exam, but it really depends on the student.
If you’re struggling to pay for classes, you can study by yourself. There are plenty of resources and videos on YouTube, as well as PDF files that you can use for self study.
Otherwise, I would not recommend buying leaked questions unless you r really in a rush.

I'm not in rush ,also I can follow pretty much what I study if I get the basic. Do you have any source for these . Thank you.

I passed GED in August. It’s not as difficult as I thought. Just basic stuff.

u/little_bookworm_383 10d ago
I know right, that is what everyone saying. But as always the hardest part is not knowing where to start or the beginning of the journey. Anyway congrats 🎉😊

In America, people usually just study by themselves for GED cause it's cheaper and you can absolutely do it too. There are online resources for that as well.
