There was only like nine classes listed, and all of them had drop dead dates from last month.
I am so very sorry to see ALEKS go. Honestly, I don't see me passing those any other way. I toyed with the idea of stats, because it seems a lot of things require it, but I just... hated math so much I drug my feet.
I can't imagine taking it at a brick and mortar school. Ah well
MAT-150 at SL (Business Stats) is a really good class for statistics. Costs more than ALEKS did, but it isn't as hard as you might think.
I passed the class by 0.5% before taking the final, and many of the questions are not purely math-related (lots of "What is statistics?" or "Which of the following characteristics is accurate about the third deviation in a normal distribution?")
I did Business Stats with ALEKS & StraighterLine. There is no contest with the speed of completion option through ALEKS but I thought StraighterLine was a better teaching course and it has been overhyped on how hard it is. It should be labeled as one of the more helpful options to learn Stats and secure credits. A Stats course only becomes easy when you know and enjoy stats. Otherwise, I would imagine a person thinks all courses are tough.
