Yes you should have no problems going to the ACE website and adding ALEKS. Just remember not to switch classes within ALEKS until the class posts to ACE.

Dude you are my hero!
It took me 2 weeks of hard core studying and retrying to get to that level. You must really know your stats. Great job you are done.

Before I took the initial assessment I study a little bit and I barely passed. Now I can get some sleep Smile)

Can someone explain to me how is this ALEKS works. I got 76% on my initial assessment so I requested ALEKS for ACE credit but they emailed me that I only have 66% how is that possible if the pie chart says 76% ....

I'm interested in using ALEKS soon, so I'd like to hear how this was resolved. Was it an error on your part or theirs?

Definitely sounds like an error on their part. I would try calling them.

If your pie chart says 76% but it was achieved without another assessment then it will be rejected. So if your first assessment was a 66%, but you took the tutorials and got the pie to say 76%, you will still be required to take another assessment to solidify the score. If it was your initial assessment and you didn't take any of the tutorials then it is an error that ALEKS should be able to correct.

If your ALEKS account is still open (I hope it is) you can go in and check this for yourself first. As mentioned, your assessment score (the first part of the bar) must be =>70. Whether or not your second bar pushes you up over 70 isn't relevant. That is your working score and not relevant to earning college credit. Only an assessment score equal to or greater than 70 counts for credit. If the 76% came from your working score, you simply log back in as the account admin, and issue yourself another assessment. If ACE is in error, and you did in fact score =>70, then simply call ALEKS tomorrow. They can help you get the right info to ACE. In any event, EXCELLENT job!
