Default Updated - She Passed Her GED!!!!

Finally, DD18 took the last test (science) of her GED. She passed with flying colors. She now has her GED. Phew!

Not only did she pass, her percentile ranks on each test are in the 90's. Yeah!!!
During recent years, they changed the GED test and apparently it is much harder than it used to be - in fact, a lot of the graduating seniors could not pass the test (60 something percent passed).

Thank you all for your prayers. Now, it's finding a college for her.

I am so happy for you Trish and really excited for DD. I'm sure the weight of the world is off your shoulders.

Woo Hoo ! Tell DD congrats from me . My son has started out at community college and will transfer after he gets his associate's degree. It's much cheaper, he can stay at home, and the classes are small. IMO it's a great way to start out. It eases them into college. Start looking for scholarships, there are sooo many out there. You're are great mom, Trish . You should be proud of yourself and her .
