Which ALEKS to prep for CLEP CM? - rebel100 - 01-30-2015
Daughter 2 is thinking about trying the CLEP College math, if she were to score a 50 she would be awarded 3 credits, above a 62 it would count for 6 credits at the local CC. My question is which ALEKS most closely aligns with the College Math exam? She has used and liked ALEKS in the past, just wondering if anyone has used ALEKS to prep for this exam and which ALEKS lines up the best. Any thoughts?

I haven't taken the CLEP exam but I did complete TESC MAT-105 Liberal Arts Math which is not that much different in content. (The recommended text for the course is the same as one of the recommended texts for the CLEP.) I've also completed ALEKS Beginning, Intermediate and College Algebra, as well as a few others. I would begin with general math and then have her work through beginning algebra. I think she will score quite well with both under her belt. Check PM.

I think you're going to have to construct it using multiple pie options. I don't think I see a good match based on the % breakdown.
EDIT:
I haven't done it yet, but Khan Academy added a feature that lets you craft playlists. You could create one that matches the exam content College Mathematics | CLEP. I'd be interested in this too, I'd be willing to help. I think this is the exam next up for my #2.
