About the GED Exam
The GED Diploma is the equivalent of a high school diploma. There are five parts to the GED exam: Writing; Social Studies; Science; Literature and the Arts; and Mathematics. You must pass all five tests in order to earn the diploma. More information about the exams is available here: http://www.doe.mass.edu/ged/geninfo.html
