You'll be fine. One of the cool things about ALEKS is they aim for understanding of the module so just stay with the explanations.
Anybody got their evaluations from TESC lately. I just had my Bachelors Reevaluated and it was kind of wierd compared to what I had pre evaluated. Also my ACE transcripts with (College Algebra, PreCalculus, and Intro to Statistics) got in the day it was published and hence weren't included.
Just wanted to know if anybody thought it was kind of wierd how Edison transfered in courses for them.

Yes...you are good to go. This means ACE contacted ALEKS and confirmed your course completion.

I did as advised and achieved to get the Business Statistics, Statistics for Behavioral Sciences and Introduction to Statistics classes done within a month...
YEAH!!!
I first took the Business Statistics since it had the most modules. This took me 3 weeks and yesterday I finally got 71%. I started at 10% alot looked familiar but I didn't want to strain to try and remember. I took an assessment everytime I was done for the day and completed 10 assessments. I could have done it those 10 days if I did procrastinate.
Well then I moved onto Statistics for Behavioral Science yesterday, after I asked for assistance in how to do this, and finished the initial assessment with 70%.
Since those two wore me out yesterday...
I moved on to Introduction to Statistics today, and just finished the initial assessment with 72%.
Oh! I LOVE killing 3 birds with 1 stone.
I wish all college courses were self teaching this way. Let alone being billed every month as an incentive. This makes you do the work and get the class done in order to save you money. Very good incentive for frugal procrastinators like me.
Well, I'm done doing all my Allie McBeal - imaginary baby dances - now...the fun is over so I'm back to my regular old classes...

FYI for those at EC, Excelsior will not take the 3 stats courses, they will only take one of the three as per below:
Quote:Hello,
The ALEKS Business Statistics would duplicate the ALEKS intro to statistics, and we would not be able to approve it. Again, the same goes for the Statistics with Behavioral Sciences. There is still greater than 50% duplication among the three exams: The statistics you have already taken, and the two you are inquiring about. Therefore, we would not be able to approve them.
Sincerely,
Andrew Wheeler
Academic Advisor
