| "When I saw the math portion of the 2014 Pearson GED test in March 2014, I was surprised by its difficulty. I had taught GED classes several years ago, and this new math test was nothing like the previous math test. I took the new GED math test myself and flunked. I also learned that only 2 students from our GED program earned their GED during Winter quarter 2014 on the Pearson GED test compared to the usual 25 students. I did some research and found out that very few students earned their GED in Washington state during winter quarter 2014. I started thinking. Why did Washington State adapt this difficult test? Do students really need to be able to answer two-step probability questions to get training to be a hair stylist or a nursing assistant?" |
