Did you consider testing out of statistics?
I did, but then I heard it was such a bear of a test that I re-thought it. Then I decided to take the online class at TESC. I heard that was just horrible and having already been through intermediate algebra and quantitative business analysis (pre-cal) as online classes at TESC, I didn't think I could do that to myself or my family for another 12 weeks in this lifetime. So, I had decided to take the DSST again and then this thread appeared and I bookmarked it until I was ready to get stats out of the way. I got it in writing from TESC that it was approved to satisfy the requirement and I started plugging away.
Honestly, having done ALEKS, I have no idea how anyone actually memorizes those formulas, keeps them all straight and passes that DSST exam. I'd do ALEKS over a DSST or CLEP any day!
Good luck!
