ALEKS Stats and duplication at COSC - BrandeX - 04-25-2017
Anyone know if Intro to Statistics and Business Statistics (or Statistics for the Behavioral Sciences) are still separate at COSC, or if all 3 duplicate each other now?
Thanks.

I was told by a COSC adviser that all three duplicate now, so you can only get credit for one of the stats courses. Also, if you need Business Stats for the Business major, you will have to specifically take Business Stats as the other two courses offered by ALEKS will not satisfy that requirement.

OK, thank you!

Straigherline has a partnership with COSC, and this is what they have listed for business stats:
Course Name at Charter Oak State College
Business Statistics - BUS 201
Notes: StraighterLine’s MAT150 (Charter Oaks’ MAT201), is a non Liberal arts, but meets the Math requirement.
Course Name at Straighterline
Business Statistics - MAT150
It very well may duplicate, but it's showing here as a BUS prefix, so I wouldn't count it out without double checking.

I was just concerned about the ALEKS courses. Thanks.

Yes, I realize that, but you can often intuit what a college will do based on what they do in other situations. TESU, for instance, classifies all stats the same- no differences ever. BUT, what I'm trying to show you is that COSC is classifying a SL business stats as a business class- that is something significantly different than the way TESU would do it (SL or ALEKS), and also since the prefixes differ when coming in from SL, there is potential for non-duplicating courses through ALEKS.
