Is GED really worth it?

General Education Diploma (GED) is considered equivalent to High School diploma in America or Canada. It is consist of five subjects namely language reading and writing, mathematics, science and social studies; it is also available in other languages too.
One thing is to be cleared first that there is no GED online test; it is only administrated in local registered test centers. Now if you ask me what is better GED or High School diploma, I would definitely say High School diploma but for those people who are busy in doing job or something else then they should go for GED program because it is somehow alternative of high school and it is less time consuming than high school diploma programs and it has five subjects only as compare to high school diploma four years program but this does not mean that you can pass the test without preparing it. You can prepare for the test by buying guides or books, you can also give sample tests online for the GED test preparation but actual test will only be held in certified test centers.
