My parrents tried to home school me but they got tired of it and that was it for me I mad it to the 6th grade and now that I'm 19 I realywant to get my ged and go to collage and start my life but I need help :/ I've been looking for almost a year now and I can't find anything that I can afforde and make time for

Why bother with college? It would take years to get a GED. Check into vocational training. Plumbers and electricians and mechanics (the "trades") do very well. If you make it through college, you will end up in an office shuffling papers.

Yea I'm realing shooting for the army I want to join as a firefighter
GoArmy.com > Careers & Jobs > Firefighter (21M) I just need my ged

I'm just having such a hard time with trying to get help I've tried to help myself but I can't get math worth a crap:/
And my family doesn't care enough to help me
Right now I'm working 40hours a week part time at a state park doing any type of maintenance you can think of pluming, electrical, small engine repair, landscaping, ETC ETC I'm good with my hands and I'm a very hard worker and I was always kind of shooting for a trade school and what not but recentley I

Forget the Army. Just become a firefighter? Or is a GED necessary?

Where do you live? You need a tutor.

Huntsville Alabama and I need my ged for it lol

Hey hon.

At 19 you are still young enough for job corps. They can give you a place to stay, feed you, an allowance, and they will get you a GED while you train in a vocation/trade.
