    I would definitely recommend taking the GED test online at home because I have anxiety and I really didn’t want to go to a testing center. So I was very grateful for the opportunity to test at home. It felt comfortable and safe which is why I didn’t mind the rules. There were a couple internet problems but I’m pretty sure it was on the proctors end, not mine though

      I'm definitely planning to take the test online at home. After 4 years of procrastination after high school and doing nothing with my life, just staying home, it's time. I also have anxiety, especially if I do go to the nearest testing site, I will be hoping that there's no traffic on the way and I will have to reschedule. I just need to delete some stuff as my laptop is a bit slow and buy a webcam

    Pros for online: You don't have to travel anywhere (no need to drive to a testing center, especially with high gas prices), extremely flexible scheduling, you can take the exam within familier surroundings (your home).
    Cons for online: No tangible calculator you can hold onto, no scratch paper, some feel uncomfotable being watched through their computer's camera.
    Pros for testing center: You can use a calculator rather than a scoll down option, there is a level of 'seriousness' when in the exam room surrounded by others also taking an exam, you can use scratch paper to work out the answers and take notes.
    Cons for testing center: Limited scheduling options, some can feel intimidated in the testing envorinment, traveling to the testing center means you must block off adequate time out of your day, if you forget your ID you may not have time to retrieve it.

My online program is awful and I’m not able to get through the program, even though I know all the content and have for years.

How many students can write with a mouse? No Chromebooks--Mac and PCs only. If you get an inexperienced proctor, you're done! It is more expensive. No discounted retakes. I tell my students to avoid it.
