OK, I assessed in at Aleks at 17% and it took me a whole week to get that. I obviously have a long road ahead of me. I successfully completed Intermediate Algebra in 2 months, but I don't think I'll have as much success with Aleks Intro to Stats. If anyone has ever taken Aleks intro to stats please provide me with some feedback or any sites, apps, etc. that helped you in learning the material. I'm stuck. :-(
I'm currently at 22 of 116 topics.

Intro to statistics was difficult for me until I printed out almost every explanation. It took me about 100 hours on ALEKs working hard. I just had a hard time with this one. Try to work an hour or 2 every day at minimum and print out a problem that stumps you. It took a lot of paper (i almost had a book) but I used the back of the pages as scrap paper to figure out other questions and it was the only way I could work through the evaluations.

I've been printing out examples and also watching Khan Academy videos; the videos are helping me a lot! I do feel like I'll spend much more time on stats than I did intermediate algebra. I am up 2% on the progress bar 60% more to go

A little off topic but I know I need a 70% to finish Aleks Beginning Algebra (only math I need or desire to). I just assessed at a 68% "assessment login time." Is
that the one that needs to get to 70%? Am I finally close after several months?

Yes, if the blue portion of the progress bar is at 68% you're almost there! Once I got to 70% on the blue portion of the progress bar I submitted it to ACE for credit and I received an email the following day saying it was approved for credit. :hurray:
