    meh just google past tests for an idea what they will ask about. then have her read about those periods of history. Honestly, its one test, it wont be a truely comprehensive ordeal. Itll just be a few questions about differant periods in time and mabey an essay or two.

    This is the right answer. People learn best when it put in a way they can relate to or easily understand.

    I got one question wrong and spent over 3~4 hours waiting overall to be allowed to do the next section. GED is fucking easy.

    Yeah, only points I lost at all on my GED were spelling/grammar mistakes on the essay.

    No, tell her she's retarded. Then tell her boyfriend he's retarded for getting a guy who doesn't know anything about the subject to tutor her on it. Fucking retards are everywhere. I hope they don't breed.

    Social studies

    This test covers American history, world history, civics and government, economics, and geography; 70 minutes are allotted for the 50 questions.

    In the social studies test, test-takers read short passages and answer multiple-choice questions. Some passages come from such documents as the Declaration of Independence and U.S. Supreme Court decisions. Many questions use graphs, charts, and other images, such as editorial cartoons, along with or instead of written passages.

    Questions involving civics and government and economics rely heavily on practical documents, such as tax forms, voter-registration forms, and workplace and personal budgets. Topics such as global warming and environmental law also are covered.
    Doesn't seem like this should be too difficult, basically just reading comprehension...

    hmm doesn't seem bad at all then. I thought it was just pure memory. "Like which date did George Washington's second cousin give birth to his son?" If you're provided with a passage first, should be easy to prep her for.

    Sadly, retards are about the only ones who do breed these days, or at least before the age of 25. Also, they do so at an alarming rate.

    The girl is lacking in social studies; I am sure the question on the GED is likely similiar to: "Who was the 3rd President of the United States?" If she can't get it right, do the rest of us a favor....please.

    I could have passed one of those GED tests in 2nd grade.

    Um... so what does this mean about most of the missinterpretation of major update notes on this board and others?
