I finally passed the Language Arts yesterday February 1st 2024 on my 3rd try. I had 148 to pass. The previous ones I got 143 and 144 respectively. After watching most of your videos I have been able to pass it and this was the only subject left for me to finish, I’m a GED graduate now . So I decided to stop by to say a very big thank you for all the videos you upload for us. They really help a lot. Continue your good work.😘😘😘

Again watching your videos for multiple time and taking the test and practice again before taking test on Monday. Best is to study in quiet environment away from any distractions is plus, I've made 141 before spring semester ended for summer break. Taking the Reading Language Arts practice test again before Monday morning comes. Hate this fact about RLA once I"m close to passing either I'm two or point away passing, being free from GED entirely. Pray for me that I pass this time around, I"m not tired but I'am exhausted from the GED JOURNEY.

I scored a 158 on the rla practice test. I'm honestly wanting to score a bit higher. I'm having a bit of trouble deciphering the main idea from the rest of the text.
