Charlene,
What kind of preparation do students receive? Is it one-on-one or class format? How much instruction time do they get (if they do) before they are allowed to do the practice test? How much time do they spend on the practice test before they master a subject? Does the mastery of a subject depend solely on the practice test?

All -
At Del Mar College are students are introduced to computerized tests through the computer software known as PLATO. PLATO allows them to take practice tests in all of the five subject areas found in the GED exam. Every Thursday our students also take what we call OPT'S (Official Practice Tests). When a student has mastered a subject, they are allowed to test in the computer lab with a proctor who records their score(s). When a student tests in all five subject areas and reaches a combined score of 2500 or higher, they are then given the green light to take the official GED exam and given a scholarship to pay for the test.
