Its very interesting how the value of the GED (high school equivalency exam) has gradually been lowered and that raising the standards to receive the certificate can create such controversy. But it is important to look at the overall picture that general education standards will rise in correspondence to this because the GED certificate must be equivalent to an high school diploma. what I found intriguing was that they were looking into raising the standards for elementary school and were really focusing on that.
