About GED Social Studies

The GED Social Studies Test is one of four subject tests required to earn the GED high school equivalency credential. The 70-minute test consists of approximately 35 questions covering Civics & Government (50%), U.S. History (20%), Economics (15%), and Geography & the World (15%). Questions emphasize Social Studies Practices — critical reading of primary sources, charts, maps, and historical documents. The extended-response essay was removed from the Social Studies test; a calculator is permitted.
