College Mathematics vs ALEKS College Algebra
#1
Does anyone have an opinion on which is easier? I thought that ALEKS would be wonderful until I found myself 10 hours into pre-algebra with no end in sight! CLEP College Mathematics might be worth a shot.

It looks like I need 3 math credits and 3 statistics credits for a TESC psyc degree. Will CLEP College Math satisfy it?

Thanks!

I took college math on a whim and passed it with no study. I might be the worse person at math that you would ever meet. I still do the finger trick to multiply something by 9! :o You should be ok if you review and know all the terms (real/rational/irrational etc...)

College math will satisfy the TESC general education math requirement but not the statistics.

Thanks, that makes me feel much better! I want to get math over with early on so it won't be hanging over my head :eek:

I have the REA CM book w/CD so I think I'll get cracking on it.
