Study for the HiSet

Practice Tests and Study Guides

• Learning Express (login with your free library card) provides practice tests in all five testing areas for the HiSET. When you complete a practice test, you’ll get detailed answer explanations for every question and a score report that will help you understand your strengths and weaknesses so you can study more effectively. To get the most out of a practice test, be sure to look at the answer explanations for all the questions—even the ones you answered correctly! People often learn best by seeing the right way to answer specific types of questions.

• You can check out or download HiSET or GED Prep Books from the library.

• hiset.org offers FREE HiSET Test Prep practice tests. On this website, the HiSET program offers interactive versions of the free practice tests to familiarize you with the exam questions and estimate your level of preparedness for the exam. When you take these practice tests you will receive immediate feedback on the correctness of your responses. When you finish the test, you will also get an estimate of your level of readiness to the real test and an estimate of your HiSET scaled score on this test. You can then review the questions, together with your answers, correct answers, and explanations for the correct answers.
