Maryland

The Maryland Department of Labor, Licensing and Regulation administers the GED® Testing Program through the GED® Office. Candidates who meet eligibility requirements may take GED® Tests at official testing centers located throughout the state. Although pre-screening and instructional classes are not a prerequisite to take the GED® Tests in Maryland, candidates are encouraged to enroll in an adult education program in order to better prepare for the tests.

A candidate may want to start by taking the Official Practice Test (OPT). Many adult education programs sponsored by local school districts, community colleges, and community organizations offer the Official GED® Practice Tests and provide instruction in the five subject areas required to pass the GED® Tests. The instructors at the adult education programs can help you decide whether you need to study for all of the content areas or if you only need to focus your studies in specific areas.

In FY06, five thousand three hundred and sixty-six adults met the score requirements and received a Maryland High School Diploma.
