Since the skills necessary for the GED are usually the
same skills ABE students are seeking, they often study
the same subjects but the teacher will keep each
student's individual needs in mind and tailor the
assignments accordingly. Students progress at their own
pace. Some students are able to master the skills they
need in a short amount of time and others may take
several quarters to accomplish their goals.
