The world around us is filled with science. In fact, everyone needs scientific knowledge in order to make choices that arise everyday. What we wear, what we eat, and where we live are the results of science. The GED Science Test requires the skills that individuals must possess so that they can make appropriate choices about the way they live.

The GED Science Test allows 80 minutes to complete 50 multiple-choice questions. The questions are based on the areas of:

	life science
	earth and space science
	physical science

Fifty percent of the science questions use graphics, such as charts, diagrams, tables, and graphs. Some of the graphics may be in color.

The GED Science Test is a test of thinking skills applied to science materials. It emphasizes the relevance of science to everyday life, the environment, and health, as well as the application of problem-solving skills. Although the individual may not have to remember Newton's Third Law of Motion, a question may require that the person apply the law to a real-life situation.
