Thank you so much for passing on how to make Aleks give you an assessment test. I didn't know you could do that, so this perfect timing to hear about it for me. I just got 69% tonight. :mad:

FYI (though this may be common knowledge, and my apologies for wasting your time if so), if you're tired of waiting for ALEKS to decide to give you an assessment so that you can finish the course and call it done, you can request an assessment using your Master account. You can even do this while logged into ALEKS in Learning mode (i.e., in your Student acct.); you don't have to log out for it to work. All you have to do is open ALEKS in a new window/tab, log into you Master acct. and Request an Assessment for your student acct. You can then log out of the Master acct., and when you go back to the window/tab of your Student acct., ALEKS will present you with the Assessment with the next page refresh.
This can help save a little time, since if you're at, say, 65%, and your goal is 70%, you may not want to wait around for ALEKS to offer the assessment on it's own at your next 14-15%, you may want to initiate the assessment at 70+%. Cheers!
