He's currently taking College Algebra through ALEKS. I had thought he would earn 3 credits through ACE once he mastered 70% of the material, but I see now that may not be the case (he began in mid-August). Does anyone have information about this? Is he wasting his time, or does it seem they'll eventually re-certify ALEKS for ACE credit?
I certainly don't want him to waste his time or money. Is there an alternative to recommend? His goal is an Entrepreneurship degree through TESU. Thanks for your guidance!
ALEKS is no longer an option for college credit. Have him finish most of the pie for you, and then do a few College Algebra practice tests. If he does well, have him take the CLEP exam.
With the recent announcement here on the board that ALEKS has extended I realized I never asked to anyone if ALEKS college algebra will come in at TESU as MATH 121 College Algebra. Can anyone confirm this? I only ask because of study.com. You have to take Math 103 Precalc to come in as MATH 121.
Any guidance is appreciated.
Yes, ALEKS's College Algebra >> MAT-121
Awesome! Thank You!
