Aleks-College Algebra Question
#1
So I signed up to get my College Algebra out of the way. How exactly does this work, do I just need to complete 70% and I receive a credit? I am really struggling with Aleks, I need a little drive knowing how I will obtain credit at the end of the day.

An answer and advise is greatly appreciated!

Four Steps To Credit:

1. Get 70% on an assessment on ALEKS.com (including the first exam). This is not the assessment + work completed on the pie, just on the assessment itself. If you complete a bunch of the pieces to the pie you'll get retested or can request another assessment at anytime by logging into the "master account" that is assigned to you.
2. Open an ACE account and request the credit to come over. Setup your account at: https://www2.acenet.edu/credit/?fuseacti...ripts.main
3. Wait a business day or so for ACE to get approval from ALEKS on the course and then close your ALEKS.com account or begin a new course. DO NOT switch to a new topic or close your account before ACE has the credit approved.
4. Request a transcript be sent to your school at the ACE website. These are electronic but still take the school (depending on the school) several weeks to act on typically.
My completed "non-traditional" credits include 27 credits from CLEP, 30 credits from DSST, 6 credits from ALEKS, 19 credits from FEMA courses including PDS, 3 credits from NFA courses, 10 credits from ACE Workplace Training, 3 credits from a TESC TECEP exam, and 3 credits from a TESC PLA course.

Thank you for the clarification

If I might offer a little advice. If you are struggling with College Algebra, drop down to Intermediate Algebra. I had to drop all the way back to Beginning Algebra because I needed to refresh the basics before moving on to more complicated subjects. In the last year, I have finished Beginning Algebra, Intermediate Algebra, Statistics, College Algebra (CLEP), and Trigonometry (just barely). Jumping straight into Algebra in the beginning was a mistake for me because I was lost. I needed the sense of accomplishment of finishing the lower level stuff and building upon it.

Good luck with your math.
