GED Social Studies

When is the last time you examined a map?  Questions on the new GED test ask questions about the  location of countries.  For example, a question might read:

Which country is located north of the equator: Chile, Egypt, Madagascar, or South Africa?  Underline on the map the name of the continent that is home to that country.  You are then given this map:

Notice that the countries are not labeled.  What does this mean to you?  You need to learn  to identify countries on a map.

The following link is a larger map that is labeled for you to study.
