Frustrated with ALEKS--When is it over? - sarahbellym - 03-29-2014

Since I am no mathemagician, I opted to use ALEKS to get through Intermediate Algebra. I have completed 70% of the modules (347 of 495) and I took another assessment this morning that shows 69%+1. Do I have to continue with another six or more hours of answering questions until they decide to give me another assessment? The "Help" button doesn't help. The options aren't useful.

Math is painful for me. It's frustrating and confusing. Can anyone shed some light on what I need to do to wrap this up. I am I doing something wrong here (other than complaining)?

Thanks all!

I have found the assessments are generally given a little over every five hours in the program. You could theoretically leave it open and keep signing in and not do any more of the modules and get another assessment. You need to assess 70% to get credit.

Here's a link to instructions on submitting a transcript request with ACE to receive credit:

Does that answer your questions?

log into your master account, you can issue yourself an assessment as often as you want.

Thanks, Cook!!! I passed the assessment with a 71%. I guess I have to get the it transcribed through ACE and I am all set on this one.
