I dont know what i am doing wrong. I really need help with this otherwise i will not be graduating without the Beginning Algebra, Intermediate Algebra and College Algebra credits :confused:
When you do the assessments you have to ensure that each question you answer is 110% Correct or else you will not get points for it. If you have to spend 2 days on 1 problem I would encourage that as you can log out of an assessment and then log back in. That's what I do. I write down the problem and work on it, even if it takes me a few days, then I log back in once I'm positive that I answered the question right then I move onto the next question and do the same thing that way you can get through Aleks faster.

Have you thought of getting a tutor? Sometimes there's just no substitute for having someone who understands the material explain it to you, and keep answering dumb questions until the light comes on. I know people here tend to be all about figuring it out on their own, but not everyone can learn everything that way. You might also consider taking these classes at a local community college instead of trying to do it online.

Yes, i did have a tutor but i need to submit my transcript by Friday and my local CC classes are not until January. College Algebra was not a requirement when I initially applied , two years ago but was informed i need to submit the ACE approved transcript to keep my seat, otherwise, i will have to wait another two to five years
