Can i pass all three ALEKS in my trial run ?

Can anyone clarify how the assessment works?  Do you have to take a NEW assessment once you've moved through enough of the pie?  Or do you just move through the pie to the point of mastery until you're at 70% or better?

And you can only take one course at a time, right?  What happens if I decide the one I'm in is a lost cause and I want to switch?

1) Yes, ALEKS will produce a new assessment after you complete about 12% of the pie topics.  So you will continue to get assessments until you can pass an assessment at 70% - the amount you've completed for your pie does not matter as far as credit-granting goes (except of course that you'll learn the material and be better able to pass the assessment).

2) Yes, only 1 course at a time.  If you get to the point where you feel it's not worth doing, you can switch to a different course - but you'll be starting from scratch, and lose your progress in the old course if you should ever want to go back to it.  My advice is to stick to the Intermediate Algebra-College-Algebra-Precalc path first (stopping at whichever course you'd like) and then switch to Stats.
