My best advice on aleks would be to keep going to at least 72% before requesting an assessment because you'll probably lose at least a couple of points and those assessments can take hours. As mentioned above, printing out everything that you don't understand helps. For word problems there are "usually" between 4 and 8 examples and if you print them all out (with the slightly different wording) you can get through even the most difficult word problems.
