OCC test site helps those trying for GED

Students working to get their GED are taking advantage of a new test site set up two years ago at OCC. The center was set up to make it more convenient for those working to complete their high school education to take the test.The pass-fail rate is the 4th best in the state. In the past, people were waiting up to eight weeks to take the test, and many had to travel outside the county. As an OCC student I am glad that I did not have to go outside the county to take a test to get into a COUNTY school. I am also excited that the school carries the GED;having a GED is important for anyone seeking a better job. It is much more convenient to have the testing right on the college campus. There the students will be familiar with the college campus, and the college's surroundings.
