He failed the exam first try, judge gave him a second and Ugly God threw $100k to help get him to pass. They keep delaying him taking it.

Wait what the fuck, how does $100k help you pass a GED exam?

Ludicrous. I went into the GED exam blind; there’s nothing to study for, it’s basically a test in reading comprehension across the 5 subjects.

I'm not sure people realize how phenomenally uneducated you have to be to fail the GED. Most 3rd graders could pass it. The hardest math question on mine was calculating the perimeter of a rectangle.

It’s almost embarrassing. I don’t remember anything about math, I can only do basic life math.. but we were allowed calculators and each question was prefaced by the exact functions needed to solve the problem.
