Why the GED is Important David dropped out of high school at 16 when his mother became ill and could no longer work or take care of David and his younger brother. He began working full time and never finished high school. Ramon came to the United States with the equivalent of a tenth-grade education from his native country. He dreamed of becoming a computer programmer but had to work full time. He often worked extra shifts to help make ends meet. Maria was a certified nurse in her native Caribbean country. But when she immigrated, she found out her nursing certification was not valid in the United States. She could not apply to a U.S. nursing program without a high school diploma. Today, after taking the GED and earning their high school diplomas, David, Ramon, and Maria—like thousands of others who take the GED each year—are able to pursue the education and careers of their dreams. For more than half a century, the GED diploma has given millions of people the opportunity to find better employment, enroll in colleges and training programs, improve their standard of living, and feel better about themselves and their futures. Congratulations on your decision to take the GED exams that can make a dramatic difference in your life. Of course, you want to be prepared for these important exams.
