At least some days:ack: I have spent so much time on the phone with banks and Amex the last few days I have not gotten past the Computing the sample correlation coefficient and the coefficients for the least-squares regression line I am having a hard time understanding where some of these numbers are coming from. Maybe tomorrow after work I will try again.

[SIZE="7"]I HATE ALEKS SO MUCH!!!!![/SIZE]banghead
I have been working on Intro to Statistics on and off since August. My DH was helping me, but he has been to involved in his own stuff to help for a while. I have spent over 140 hrs on this so far I am only at 73% of the pie and I am just praying I can assess at at least 70% tonight.:ack:
I just needed to whine to someone :nopity: I was offered 5-6 jobs today and I turned them all down and have been at ALEKS all day I am just frustrated.

I just finished ALEKS stats, and I empathize with anyone who has been ready to reach inside the computer and strangle the artificial intelligence named ALEKS..
In any case, I am finally done. Does anyone know how long it takes (from experience) to get ALEKS transcripts over to Excelsior? I realize that it is a three step process (ACE-->ALEKS-->ACE-->EC), but how long does that take from start to finish? I am under a tight timeline to get conferred next month; I just assessed at > 70% today and I registered on ACE. At this point, I am holding my breath and praying this doesnât take too long..

Last year, there were some delays at ACE because of winter storms. When I ordered an ACE transcript, it only took 6 days for EC to receive it.

I think it only takes a few days for ACE to confirm the info from ALEKS, but I'm sure someone on the forum knows for sure.
Congratulations on finishing ALEKS Stats!
