Ged Stand For

Q. What does GED stand for? I can find High School Equivalency Diploma, and I know what it is, but not specifically the words the initials GED represent.

A. General Educational Development. General Equivelancy Diploma General Education Diploma That says it's "General Equivalency Degree", and that's what I thought it was too, but this site, http://www.acenet.edu/clll/ged/index.cfm , says it's "General Educational Development". It looks like this is the official site for the testing service which administers the exam needed to get one's GED, so I believe in truth GED stands for General Educational Development, unless proven otherwise. I think the other is a linguistic UL. A brief perusal of federal statutes indicates that common sense prevails in this matter. "General Educational Development" is the services/departments which administer GED programs, but a "General Equivalency Degree" is what one receives after passing though those programs.
