Is there any overlap between intermediate algebra and college algebra or do they give credit for both. Also the just give credit for one stats all the others overlap? Is that correct?
Thanks

I have been told that Intermediate Algebra and College Algebra are two separate courses and they will give 3 credits for both. Also someone at TESC told me that they only give credit for one statistics course. (which is kind of a bummer) TESC has told me all of this but sometimes they give faulty information.
I hope this helps!:coolgleam:

I completed Aleks Beginning Algebra and it was denied for credit this past April. The reason they gave was that it was considered developmental.

I suppose that is fair. Beginning Algebra is middle school or freshman high school level for most of us I believe. My wife (Chinese) has made a comment or two in the past about our (USA) math and sci levels in university, being at the middle school or high school level here in China.

Slimcustomer if I were you I would appeal it. I was told conflicting things until I went to the top. Unless they can show you where they have changed this in writing they should give credit. I got the credit in March 2010.

:iagree: I coursed high school in Colombia. 11th grade math over there is the equivalent of Calculus I here. College Algebra is 9th grade Math over there.
