Depends on where you live. In the US, you can take it at 16 if you meet certain requirements, otherwise I think it's 18. In Canada, it can vary, but there are no exceptions from what I understand; you have to be 18 or 19.

Depends on what state you are from. I took mine when I was 18, but only because I home schooled and graduated at 18. But there were a couple 16 year olds there.

I live in MA and was a GED instructor about 8 years ago. Back then, you could be any age as long as you weren't in school. The test has changed and is a hell of a lot harder. So if it's you or if you're trying to find out for someone...it's going to take time and study to pass!

particular, yet i think of their mom ought to bypass lower back to college besides. Or if the youngster is very sensible, he ought to practice the mummy to get her GED. Do a 12 years previous boy ought to take a GED try? <==== WTF? English translation? Can a 12 3 hundred and sixty 5 days previous boy take a GED try?

Yes, but you might need permission to take it from the board of education. And you may also be required to take GED prep classes.

I think that varies from state to state. Call your local high school and ask a guidance counselor.

A sixteen-year-old can take it. But if they plan to attend college, they will then have to wait until they are eighteen.
