The online guide
Online testing (from home, a proctor watching by camera) exists for the GED test in most states. Two facts decide it for you: the gate — a green practice score in that subject within the last 60 days — and the map: six states offer no online test at all. A third fact matters if you have been reading the farm sites: their shared ban list is wrong about one state, and the correction is documented here.
Verified on the official state policy pages, 2026-10-20: Florida, New York, Hawaii, Massachusetts, West Virginia, Connecticut. In those states the GED test is taken at a test center, full stop. West Virginia's page says it outright; the others simply carry no online-testing policy at all. Maine — HiSET-only — offers no online-proctored HiSET either, and Hawaii offers no online HiSET even though the GED question is the one usually asked.
The prep farms converge on a seven-state ban list that adds Wyoming. The live Wyoming policy page carries a full online-testing section, describing exactly how to schedule an online exam after a green practice score. The primary source wins: Wyoming offers online testing. One farm even contradicts itself — Wyoming on its ban list, a Wyoming online price in its own table. Our correction log records the disagreement openly, including our own plan to re-check it inside an account.
Online seats are gated per subject: you need a Likely to Pass (145+) score on the official practice test for that subject, earned within the previous 60 days. Green in Math opens online Math; it does nothing for Science. The planner tracks eligibility per subject and dates your plan so no green expires unused.
The guides are the map. The Pass Plan is the paperwork: your dated calendar, the trackers, and the retake worksheet for your state.
