Here is the full list of ALEKS classes, but remember only ACE evaluated classes are worth college credit. ALEKS has an * next to those classes.

For some reason College Algebra is not on the list for courses. ALEKS had indicated that it was an oversight and that they were going to fix it. I guess they haven't gotten to it yet. I did go through some of the College Algebra with trig. It really wasn't bad at all. I switched to Intermediate Algebra in the end though.

College Algebra is Pre Calculus WITHOUT Trig, at least it was when I started it a couple of months ago. Once you register for it inside you will see that it has the same ACE code as College Algebra.

Once Aleks approves your course with Ace, you can start another module. You do not have to wait until ACE transcripts your course.
I did it that way to speed up the process. Just a FYI.

In regards to the length of time it took me, I might not be the best case study.
I originally started out in the Behavioral Sci Stats course on 12/19/08 then switched to Bus. Stats on 12/25/08 and changed again to Intro Stats on 1/5/09. So that course took me from 1/5 - 1/11/09 to complete but the information from the other 2 course helped me have an original assessment in the intro stats course of 56 %. When I started out in the Behavioral Sci Stat's I had a zero assessment.
The reason I switched is I was trying to find the one that I felt I could reach the 70 % assessment in within the first 30 days so that I did not have to pay for a second month.

Well, would you be able to continue with the other two courses with the percentage that you left off with? I'm considering doing the same thing, basically going back and forth to get the quickest credit. Needing all three courses, I also thought that if I were to complete the same areas in each course at the same time, I could complete them all sooner. I feel like I'm running on a treadmill right now, even though I actually really need to be on one literally. Well anyway, I just wanted to know before I change out of one and can't get back in.

no, 1 course per $20. It's the overlap that helps you reach the 70% on your second test pretty fast

Once you switch you lose the percentage you were at and have to start over again. So there is no going back and forth in the manner you expressed.
I switched from class to class trying to find the one I felt I could achieve a 70% assessment the fastest.
If you want to complete more then one you have get 70 % assessed and get it ace approved before you move onto the next or you will loss your assessment and will have to start over.

What do you mean "1 course per $20?" I read what she wrote but didn't understand what you said, as it is $20 a month no matter how many courses you take, you must have been replying to something specific that he/she asked.
Ah, I get what you meant now. You can pay an additional $20 to per course to do additional courses at the same time.
