HiSET (formerly GED)
in High School Completion
High School Equivalency Test (HiSET)
with Old Orchard Beach/Saco Adult Education
The HiSET is recognized as a form of high school completion by employers and college admissions. The HiSET tests cover five core subjects: Math, Reading, Science, Social Studies, and Writing. A passing grade in each subject area is required to earn a high school diploma equivalency.
Students must be at least 17 years old, officially withdraw from their high school before taking the official HiSET tests, and have reliable transportation to and from classes and testing appointments.

After your appointment and CASAS assessments are completed, our Chief HiSET Examiner, Liis Nigol, will contact you and set up practice test appointments. (At the Saco Learning Center, we offer in-person preparation classes on Monday and Tuesday evenings, one-on-one math tutoring, and at-home study materials to assist those who need more prep before beginning the official testing.) Upon passing the five practice tests, you will be scheduled for official testing. Note: Practice and official testing are done at our Old Orchard Beach offices only. Official testing requires a valid photo ID issued by the State of Maine.
