This episode of GED Connection is called "Passing the GED Social Studies Test." This program is about what to expect when taking the social studies portion of the GED test, which covers history, economics, civics and government, and geography. Throughout this episode, the host goes over sample questions from the test in all areas of social studies. The kinds of questions that are covered are those involving maps, graphs, charts, timelines, dates, and political cartoons. A lot of the questions on the social studies test relate to history, and the questions could relate to any era. Having a general sense of the major events throughout history and knowing about their chronology is very important. The host explains that a good way to build knowledge about social studies is to read the newspaper and listen to the news on the radio and television. Above all, the biggest point that is made in this episode is that using logic and common sense will be the test taker's most important asset.
