ALEKS is no longer an option for BSBA GM math requirements (MAT-121, STA-211), correct?
What is the cheapest and fastest option for these two classes? I've taken up/through pre-calc. in High School, but that was some time ago.
Correct, ALEKS is no longer recommended for credit. However, there are plenty of options to meet the Quant Lit (College Algebra) and Math (Stats) requirement for BSBA. For example:
There are also exams (like CLEP & TECEP) options as well.
- Saylor Academy has both College Algebra (MAT-121) and Introduction to Statistics (STA-201)
- Shmoop has Algebra I & II (MAT-121) and Statistics (STA-201)
- Straighterline has College Algebra (MAT-121) plus Business Statistics and Intro to Statistics (both STA-201)
- Study.com has Math 103: Precalculus (MAT-121) and Stats 101: Principles of Statistics (STA-201)
Cheapest would be Saylor or Shmoop, depending on whether you're planning to take other Shmoop courses as well. Fastest will depend on which provider works best with your learning style. The SL Business Stats course is generally considered one of the easier/faster options as it leans more on theory than and hardcore math skills.
Awesome!
Thanks for the speedy reply, I'll get to looking between Saylor & Shmoop.
I'm already familiar with SL so that may be the best way to go for Stats, and perhaps CLEP in order to meet Quantitative Lit. requirement. That would be CLEP College Mathematics, yes?
That would not be the CLEP College Mathematics. The TESU BSBA has very specific math requirements; you need Statistics, and College Algebra or Quantitative Business Analysis. The CLEP College Mathematics comes in as MAT-102, General Math I & MAT-103, General Math II. This is not the same as Quantitative Business Analysis. If you are going to CLEP the BSBA math quantitive literacy requirement then it needs to be the CLEP College Algebra.
