According to Kate Johnson, CEO of EducateTheUSA, if students study with GED Academy one hour per day they will be ready to pass the exam in just 4 to 5 weeks. If they spend one hour per week they will be prepared for the exam in 3 to 4 months.

EducateTheUSA.com organizes this competition and gives away online prep courses as prizes to emphasize the fact that a proper GED preparation can dramatically improve students' confidence and chances to pass the exam.

According to many local and regional authorities there has been a dramatic drop in the number of people taking the GED exam since big changes came into effect last January.

Since then, hundreds of thousands of high school dropouts hoping to earn a high school equivalency diploma face a more challenging GED test. The paper-and-pencil test is history, and the GED test recently went through the largest overhaul in the exam's 70-year history.

As the test goes digital, the new exam emphasizes skills that are more relevant to today's employers and colleges, including critical thinking and basic computer competencies. Because of these changes, the majority of prospective students say that they are afraid to take the test because they are not familiar with online test taking strategies.

To help address this concern, EducateTheUSA.com gives away online GED prep courses and hopes that prospective students will perceive the new GED exam as "a piece of cake". It's all about preparation, says Johnson.
