Understood. But cant hurt to have him look over the course materials, quizzes, free no credit final before making a decision. He may be pleasantly surprised.

Regards Wrote:Does ALEKS allow you to just keep requesting assessment after assessment? Is that what your son did? If not, do you mean he just spent 40 hours on one test? I'm a tad confused.
Yes, he spent 40 hours on one assessment, the initial assessment, 25 questions, over several days. He did not restart it, he worked through it very slowly.
