well i just came back from my test now to see which way i go. and they said for me to take the ged asap b/c i scored a high score on todays test. they said a 11/12 grade scale is 246 and i scaled at a 258 which is above HS level

they also said that b/c i have a semester of actual HS(i have 3 years of HS) that the state of hawaii will give u a HS diploma and not a ged. so i'm happy with my results. looks like i will be getting my HS diploma somethime in june when the next testings are. i wish they were sooner tho.
