GED Math - No Calculator Section! 

I just passed math because of you 🎉you are the goat of GED exam

@@NeverBecky Woohoo! Congrats my friend!! 🙌🏼 All the best on your journey from here!

Let's go!!! Congrats my friend! Super excited for ya! 🙌🏼 Was this a personal goal or for a particular job? All the best with everything from here!

@wmaulini 2weeks! omg. that give me a lot of hope. I am really bad at math. so I was thinking if I would ever have pass. If you don't mind, may I know how you study.

⁠​⁠@@GetSumMathThanks!! I started testing back in 2018 because I was at a job position that required for me to get a state license so within a 3 month period I passed the science language and social studies. But right after that the company decided to promote me to another division that required a lot of traveling and did not need a license so I never went back to take the Math. Well now I own a small biz and work my own hours so decided to put some time apart to finish what I started. Glad I did because I feel like a huge weight is off my shoulders it was just always in the back of my mind.

@@Dice557I’m the worst at math lol or thought I was. But he explains things so easily that it clicked at least for me it did. All I did was review all of his GED videos and paid attention to his tricks of how to solve the problems. Specially the calculator tricks, there’s only 5 questions that they don’t let you use the calculator so after those 5 if you can really master the calculator you’re pretty much golden. And not only did I look at the videos I would also write down the questions and work them out. I watched them all twice, so the first week I learned how he worked them out then the second week I would pause the video and try to figure out the answer myself. If I did it you can definitely do it!

@@wmaulini1 really appreciate this. Thank u.

Proud of you my friend! 🙌🏼 🥰 Respect to you for sticking with your goal and making it happen 😜💪🏼

Let's go!! Congrats my friend!! 🙏🏻🙌🏼

Congratulations 👏 that's awesome. I go tomorrow for my 5th try 😢. I hope I can come back and say the same tmrw

Good luck tomorrow!! 🙏🏼

@@GetSumMath thank you. 😊

@@annamay520Hi !! Hope you pass the test 🙏🏻 I pass mine at the 6 end last 🙏🏻 as always , thanks sooooo much to this wonderful videos and the amazing teacher 🙌many blessings to him 🙏🏻

Many students lose faith after they get a 144. Especially getting that score twice and not letting that stop you speaks volumes about your fight and your commitment!! It will be an inspiration for others who come across your story as well. I’m proud of you, my friend!!! What’s next for you on your journey from here?!?

@@GetSumMath college!!!! I need 6 credits for a higher pay increase!!!!!!

Awesome!! 👏

Congratulations! How was it?

@yolandasession8158 👋. So I haven't been in school in over 20 years so math was my biggest struggle. We get 3 tries a year here if we fail. It took me 2 long years. I was scoring 128, then 138 and I was frustrated BUT let me tell you...... this man right here had made it so easy for me to understand. Just by watching his videos, I scored 144 and my passing is a 145. Yes, I failed but look at how much my score improved just by watching his videos. I ONLY watched his videos until I passed. The way he speaks in the videos and explains each problem made it so easy for me to understand. I knew I had to focus on the calculator and this man's videos taught me all I needed to know. I had NO clue how to even use the calculator until I watched his. Every test I took was completely different. One test had a lot of mean median and mode questions. One had a lot of the Fx and y and ab questions. But... everything he has in his videos is in the GED. I would watch his video and then take his quiz in the same thing he just taught on his website and see what I would score. I am still shocked that I finally passed but I know 100% that it was because of all his videos. Good luck and let us know how you do. 😊

I really appreciate that! 🙏🏼

Keep working hard, you got this!!

Congrats yo!! Outstanding score too!! Thanks for reaching back out to let me know! 🙌🏼

Excellent work!! 🙌🏼 Thank you for reaching out, congrats to you my friend!

Thanks for watching! You got this! 🙌🏼

Lucky you!🎉 Btw how was the social studies and English?

@@user-nj2ku8sf8y Hi, It was a lot of reading and an essay . The social studies was about congress and political stuff.

@@CG-qk1zs thanks alot for replying!

Did you pass already? Math test

So glad to hear that! 🙂 You'll continue to open new doors after this journey - keep grinding and keep us posted how it goes on Wed! 🙏🏻

@@GetSumMath i passed today with a 156!!! i wouldnt have been able to do it without your videos. i am now one step closer to becoming a ged graduate with your help

@@pictocat3752 Awesome work my friend!! Congrats on checking this one off your list! All the best with your other tests, too 🙏🏻

Same here! Parents took me out of school in the 5th grade and never taught me anything or put me back in school! I got a 155 on my math ged ready and I'm taking the test next week!

You're welcome! ☺

Thanks for watching! 🙏🏼

Awesome! So happy to hear that! 😃 Thanks for reaching back out to let me know! 🙏🏻

@@GetSumMath you truly don’t understand what an impact you are making. I am also in a group on Reddit and your name is mentioned so much. Even though I found before, I joined Reddit but it reassured me that I was learning from the right person. I am 34 years old going back to get my GED and you have simplified learning for me and sooo many others 🥹🥹🥹🥹👏👏👏👏

I find myself struggling with language arts, and I'm retaking the exam this coming Wednesday, on the eighth. Any advice? I also deal with imposter syndrome because I passed math on my first try, but I've had to retake 2 subjects else at least twice.

@@NeverBecky The math vs. the others are very different, so it makes sense that one of them is more comfortable for you than the others. It's also impressive that you're self-reflective enough to recognize imposter syndrome. It's one of the subtle things that takes away our confidence unnecessarily. You can acknowledge it, but also don't have to believe it. I made a short RLA playlist to help if you haven't seen these yet: ru-vid.com/group/PL6i4gkAHIYB-F7Hm1V4B1EcG8yMXpUh4_ I always recommend finding all of the questions about one particular paragraph or sentence first, answer those, then go back to answer the questions that take longer. I also wouldn't worry about the essay. Type out a sentence and just move on (cause if you leave it blank, it grades it differently). This will give you more focus and energy for the rest of the test. You got this!! 🙏🏻

I appreciate that! I'll still be sticking with GED videos for awhile, but I hope you find some good ones for SAT too!

Woo!! 🙌🏼 Great work my friend! 😃

was there quite a bit of no calc math on the test?

@@montanajuggs1717 Usually the first 5 questions or so are no calculator, then the other 35 are calculator 👍🏼

@@GetSumMath thanks for the reply! I’m decent at math with a calculator but without it I’m lost lol. Thanks for making these videos btw. I’ve passed my science and social studies because of you.

@@montanajuggs1717 😜

Another great way to do those!

You’re welcome! Try to focus on finding the ones you have practiced first, then you can work on the others. They’re all mixed together, so sometimes the easier ones are in the middle or towards the end! All the best!! 🙏🏼

🫣🥺🥺🥺😭 I failed by 1 point. 144 I'm so upset. I don't understand why this is so hard for me to figure out. 5 times failing I want to give up

This test was by far the hardest for me. I felt like I was staring at the screen and feeling stuck like I had no idea what to do

@@annamay520 Dang, you're right there! I'm so sorry I know that's heartbreaking, but you've put in the time, effort, and energy and I know you will do it!!

@@annamay520 One thing that can help with math is to find all of the ones that look more familiar and skip the challenging ones at first. Sometimes the easier ones are in the middle or the end, but the difficult ones in the beginning or middle take away students' confidence. I hope you stay with it to get it the next time, you're soo dang close!

Thank you my friend!

Awesome! Taking the GED Ready tests beforehand help a lot to know what to expect. Use 50off as a promo code to pay half. All the best, keep us posted!!

@@GetSumMath wow i wish i knew that lol, i already paid for it

@@cubealgs101 Oh shoot!

Best of luck on your test!

@@annamay520 thank you!

Congratulations my friend!! 🎉 I’m super excited to hear that! 🙏🏼

I hope they help!! Keep us posted how it goes! 🙏🏻

@@GetSumMath thank you so much I passed today with a 149

Thank you so much omg I watch your videos for 4 days

@@aneishasavoury6583 Congrats my friend!! I'm so glad they helped! 🙏🏻

Almost all of these could appear on the ASVAB, but here are a few topics in particular: • Proportions • Ratios • Percents • Fractions • Decimals • Probability • Compare Rates • Roots and Exponents • Solve Equations • Substitutions • Algebraic Statements • FOIL • Volume I have practice + videos for these on my website: getsummath.com Those are the main ones I've noticed on ASVAB practice tests! 👍🏼

@@GetSumMath will check them out thanks 👌

Hey there! I've never seen a graphing quadratic equation question on the GED, just solving them! Here's a video to help with those if you haven't seen this one on solving quadratics. Hope this helps! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-LKSrol0IorY.html

I was using it like Kevin in Home Alone “Buzz’s girlfriend… WOOF!” 😜

Any particular types of questions you're interested in?

🙏🏼

Check out my website to practice these exact types, that’ll definitely help retain it more!

I hope it helped!

Keep grinding, you got this!! Buying the calculator to practice with helps a ton! 🙏🏻

@@GetSumMath thank you! I have one

@@yolandasession8158 Excellent 👍🏼

Hey there, x can take on any value! For a word problem, sometimes it helps to use x is 1 to see what happens, but it could be anything 👍🏼

You might also be remembering that the number in front of x is always just 1. So it’s 1*x but x can still take on any value

Thank you bc of you and the videos you made I was able to get my ged in may

@@ConnorSoltowski Hey! Awesome to hear my friend! 🙌
