FREE GED Tests

The IL Community College Board is picking up the tab for anyone who wants to take the GED test this summer! Normally it’s a 4-part test at $25/each section. The coupon code is ILSAVE to save $100 total. (For retakes of tests, where the test is already free, use the promo code ILRETAKE to cover the test center cost.)  Here’s the website: https://www2.iccb.org/divi/freegedil/
