Aleks or Straigterline?

[rvm]

Forgot mention: It seems to me the majority of the people who recommend ALEKS over Straighterlne, on this forum at least, are good at the math subject (such as pre-calc) they choose or they have plenty of time to devote to completing ALEKS. If you can score 70% or greater on the INITIAL assessment, you're finished. But if you don't, ALEKS will continue to test you until you reach 70%. It will even continue to test you periodically on concepts you have already learned. You may think that's not significant. But there are people on this forum - who I consider quite intelligent - who have spent months working on one single math subject (such as college algebra) and not reached 70%. They learned alot but gave up on ALEKS for another venue: SL, CLEP or online course. I hope they will chime in here and confirm or correct me.
