| Major Change and Major Concern
Unlike in the past, students who have not passed
the entire GED Test by January 1, 2002, will have to retake the entire
new GED 2002 Tests. This will be the first time that partial scores
will not be "grandfathered" into a new GED Test. Program administrators
need to start informing students of this new requirement immediately.
The GED Testing Service has created a great new
poster that provides students with a visual reminder to complete testing
prior to December 31, 2001. The only cost is shipping and handling,
approximately $3.00. You can also visit the American Council on Education’s
website and download the 8.5” x 11” inch poster to your computer.
Print and make copies of the poster. Then post them throughout your
center. It is not too early to start this process.
 Add
to Your "To Do List:"
The last thing a program administrator wants
to do is inform a student who needs only 1 more point to pass
the test, that all of his/her scores have been erased from the
system on December 31, 2001 and that the student will have to
take the entire test again. This is not a positive scenario
for either the student or the program.
