Help,high school diploma or ged?

try and get your high school diploma, it's better than a ged. ged's don't look good on job applications, colleges, etc.

In the long run it doesn't really matter, do whichever you can get done faster. And don't go to some online school to do it. Go to your local community college and contact their adult education department. GED testing is usually done 2 times a month and cost under 50 bucks at most schools, The test takes several days to complete. YOU CANNOT DO THIS ONLINE. You must go to a state-run institution if you want a diploma/GED that is valid. and its the cheapest.

Two resources I would suggest are The American Council of Education (ACE) and Stech Vaughn. They both have a free online GED practice exam Source(s): http://www.gedtestinglocations.com/ged-online.html http://www.acenet.edu/Content/NavigationMenu/ged/test/prep/sample_questions.htm http://steckvaughnadult.hmhco.com/en/gedpractice.htm

If you are an adult, skip the online diplomas. You can't take the GED online anyway. Contact your school district (or nearby ones) adult education department. They should have both diploma classes and GED prep. How long it will take depends on how many credits you still need of course. On college apps they don't really care if it you put GED. It doesn't have the stigma it used to. Usually forms will say say diploma or GED, and you would put yes. They won't know which it is.
