Not sure if everyone realizes this because I never saw this mentioned before. (or if I did I forgot because ALEKS is overly complicated)


It is possible to make yourself a second or third student.

If you're afraid to start a new course because you're not sure you got your first one on your transcripts and now only have one day left...

For example, I didn't want to lose my pathetic 37% assessment on stats, so instead of changing that student account to algebra, I created a second student account.

Costs more than it would have if we still had time to wait (unless you have a special discount? I dunno) but seems worth it at this point.

Thanks JBtesc,

I hope this works and you get Stats on your ACE transcript in time! ALEKs is in California, so I am hoping that gives you a little bit more time!

Best of luck,
T

You know what, I don't care if my stats course gets wiped out at this point. Instead of making a second account and paying an additional $20, I'm going to switch to Algebra instead.

Intermediate Algebra 4hr, 14min initial assessment... finished with exactly 70%.

I thought I was going to cry but my eyes are too dry from staring at the screen all night.

I really hope tesc accepts intermediate algebra, lol.

I think I'm going to have to accept stats as a loss and move on and hope it really does get recertified.

Good luck to everyone who's still going to be working like crazy on it today. I feel your pain.

Let me add a little encouragement for those who don't make the deadline. Clep college math isn't much harder than Aleks intermediate algebra. It just requires a little time with Khan.

Once it lands under "Approved" on the ACE page that means It's completely done and accepted right?

I can switch into a different math on ALEKS and not lose it right?

JBtesc you did it! Nice job!
