But really, go get that ALEKS. Keep it up and master it. Good luck.

My no longer functional previously-sliding keyboard tray agrees with the OP. Additionally every time I put any weight on it my head slams into my desk and I have to pick everything up off the floor. It took me a couple hours to find my space bar key once too.

After struggling all day with ALEKS, I assessed at 57%.
That's progress, yes, but ALEKS mocks me.
Oh this bad boy is going down.
Big time! :mad:

I have Algebrator and am using Mathway too. I'll have to give Quickmath a try, thanks!

Have you no shame? No mercy???
Oh wait.
I might be a lil' high-strung after spending all day on ALEKS and misreading things... :o
*sigh*...the sad part is I saw Star Trek II in the theater.
When it was originally released.
And I still hate math.
Khhhaaaaaaannnn!!!!!
Ok, time for cold adult beverage methinks. Have a great New Year!

I am sitting home with my hubby tonight, thinking about what a miserable year 2009 was. I needed a good laugh and you provided it.
All I can say about math is it will be funny if I can really get away with a BA in Natural Science/Math without ever taking a calculus or physics class. If I can pull this off it will be a God send.
I remember watching the first Star Treks on Black & White TV if I have to take a math class now I might break more than a keyboard.
Keep the faith and good luck, I will be pulling for you.

@CookdeRosa: Does Business Stats duplicate the other two? I thought they all duplicated, but I am probably wrong on that. >>
It should not duplicate at TESC since it's classified as a business course- in fact, it will only be a free elective if you are in a major that isn't business. NOW, take that with a grain of salt, because TESC only just reevaluated those to duplicate- so they used to be 199 and 201, so it's possible that they'll call it duplicated.
