Arlington Community Ed to offer HiSET test prep

MA Dept. of Ed. now uses HiSET (High School Equivalency Test) as an alternative to the GED

The Massachusetts State Department of Education has begun using a test called HiSET, which stands for high school equivalency testing, as an alternative to the GED. If you left high school before graduation, the HISET exam is another avenue to secure a high school diploma.

Arlington Community Education is excited to announce they will offer a course designed to prepare students for the HiSET examination. Students will work on five required areas of study: reading, writing, math, social studies, and science. Instruction will cover the main topics in each study area, and will be individualized where possible. Students will have the opportunity to take practice tests in each area of study. Please bring a Casio fx-260 calculator. Note: We highly recommend you purchase The Official Guide to the HiSET Exam, 2nd Edition by McGraw Hill; please bring to first class.
