The GED Exam will be offered in Bonham on July 18, and the Grayson College Testing Center will start accepting reservations July 11.
Contact the GC Testing Center at 903-463-8724 for a reservation. Seating is limited to 15, and pre-registration is required.
A GED candidate must be a resident of Texas, must be officially withdrawn from school, and must not have received a high school diploma from an accredited high school in the U.S.
Examinees will report to the TEAM Center at 806 W. 16th Street in Bonham at 7:45 a.m. Those taking the exam must bring government-issued photo identification (Texas driver’s license, Department of Public Safety ID card, passport, military ID card), Social Security card (if they have a Social Security number), and $65 exact cash. Seventeen year-old candidates must provide additional forms available from the GC Testing Center. Testing will last all day, from 8:00 a.m. until 6:00 p.m. with a short break for lunch. Examinees should bring a sack lunch and beverage.
Examinees will receive official GED scores directly from the Texas Education Agency about three weeks after testing.
GC Testing Director Donna McKinney reminds those interested in completing the GED that major changes are underway to the test. “The GED Testing Service will issue a new series of GED tests in January 2014. GED candidates who have not completed their GED testing on the 2002 series of GED tests should try to complete their testing in 2012 or early 2013. Do not wait until the last few months of 2013. Testing volume may be high, and you might not be able to get a seat during the last few months of 2013,” she said.
