In my latest evaluation it was rejected. So now I have to suffer through College Algebra.
If you took Sophia's Foundations of Algebra, you should have a relatively easy time with Sophia's algebra. They're pretty similar and they go over a lot of the same things, except now it's stuff like 1 + X = 3 instead of 1 + 2 = 3. It's not a great course if you're intending to move on to higher math later, but when all you need is algebra then it works quite well.
Agree 100%. I have always been terrible at math and wound up in the degree program I'm in because they didn't have a math requirement, just a math/humanities requirement which I was able to satisfy with Sophia courses.
But when the free promo started, I ended up taking both Foundations of College Algebra and College Algebra, because why not? In any case, Rachel's comments about those two courses are right on the money.
