I don't understand Aleks Assessments

[dfrecore]

The way to pass is on AN assessment, not only the initial assessment. I think you are doing quizzes rather than assessments, the assessments are all about 30 questions.

You can go into the master account and force an assessment if you want, or you can progress through the course by working on your pie, and after you get a certain percentage done, it will give you a new assessment. I think it's somewhere around 12%. So for each 12%-ish part you complete, you will get an assessment. If you pass an assessment with a 70%, you are done with the course.

The main thing to remember is that when looking at your history (with a blue/yellow/green bar) is that you need 70% BLUE. So when you do your assessment, you will get a score. Then, as you work through and master topics, you will get green added to the blue. For instance if you assess at 50% (BLUE), and then you learn an additional 20% of topics (GREEN), even though you will have 70% of the course mastered, only the BLUE counts.
