Another Aleks question since my evaluation has changed! - Can219 - 12-13-2012
Now that my evaluation is done and I changed to CPA Track Accounting I only need statistics... ( I received credit for algebra etc from my previous school) My questions are :
1) To get Aleks credit for Statistics do I have to do interm algebra, college algebra etc....like a build up in order to get credit??? Or can I just go and do statistics?
2) I have already started begining algebra and have been working on it for 5 days now. I needed a refresher and ORIGINALLY until my eval was done I didn't think I would get the credit for the math I had...but it did transfer over.....Would I need to complete it before doing statistics?
3) Are all the classes a build up to statistics? Meaning if I'm not refreshed with the info is it my benefit to go through the classes to work up to statistics?
Thanks!

I'm not confident about your second question, but here are my thoughts on your other two:

You can do just statistics; you aren't required to take the other courses first.

Although I had already completed College Algebra before I began my statisics course, I don't remember a lot (if any) of overlap between those courses. Of course, if you are interested in refreshing your math skills, it will probably serve you well in the future, but it most likely won't get you very far in the statistics course: statistics will have different focus than the algebra courses, I think.
Hope this is helpful to you as you are making your decision!

I thought I had read somewhere that ace won't give you credit if you have started one but didn't finish it... And then Completed another class......( meaning you wouldnt get credit for the 2nd completed class?) Just need clarification...
