Many accept the GED as an alternate to the traditional high school diploma.  Adults who didn’t complete high school can still reach for better jobs by writing the GED.  It doesn’t matter how long you’ve been out of school, what your marks were, or how many credits you got or didn’t get. Most adults just need to brush up on their reading and basic math skills.
