ALL GED EXAMINEES

A new 2012 Series of the GED tests will be released on January 1, 2012. All GED examinees should be advised that scores earned on the current 2002 series tests will not be able to be combined with those earned on the new 2012 Series GED Tests. By December 31, 2011, examinees must have taken and passed all five content area tests and earned the minimum total score on the 2002 series, or they will need to take the entire 2012 Series test battery.

Persons seeking to meet the Iowa High School Equivalency Diploma requirements should be aware of companies that claim to offer the Test
of General Educational Development (GED) over the Internet or through correspondence courses. There are NO on-line or correspondence
testing programs recognized by the General Educational Development Testing Service (GEDTS) of the American Council of Education (ACE).

Persons can ONLY take the Official GED Test Battery at an approved Iowa GED test center. The only way to receive an Iowa High School
Equivalency Diploma is to successfully pass the Official GED Test Battery by Iowa state standards. The current Iowa state standard is to
achieve a minimum standard score of 410 on each of the five Official GED Test Battery subtests and an overall standard score of 450.

Please contact the Iowa Department of Education at 515.281.3640 for further information.
