What is the GED? 

Unlike the traditional routes of education such as the O Level and A Level, the General Educational Development (GED) is a standardized test that serves as an alternative to a high school diploma. It is designed for individuals who did not complete traditional high school and want to demonstrate their academic skills and knowledge equivalent to a high school graduate. 

The GED is widely recognized in the United States and many other countries for educational, employment, and personal development purposes.
