I am tackling my FEMA Classes right now but I want to get my math classes out of the way next.....Just not sure if I should go Aleks or Straighterline? I will need Pre-algebra, College Algebra and Pre-calc. Math is not my strong suit. Also do we need to order any study materials?? I could go ahead and order them while I'm busy with the FEMA Classes....THANKS for any feedback!
I would definitely recommend ALEKS. The format is well-suited for those with a weak background and possible dislike for math. It's not without its own set of frustrations but the price is cheap and you have far more opportunities to get through the material with all the time you need compared to SL. Math is also not my strong suit and you can read about my own experiences in this thread after not having taken the subject for 20 years or so. Yes, you'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll pull your hair out trying to escape from "ALEKS Hell" but it's well worth it and affords you the opportunity to complete the necessary credits once and for all. Good luck!
