I felt the same way when I tried Aleks. It's an excellent learning tool, but it was way too slow for my purposes. EC accepts the DSST Principles of Statistics exam, which I passed after reviewing the IC flashcards (which are excellent for this!) and an introductory statistics book for about two weeks. Two halfhearted weeks. If I had give a rough estimate, I'd say the 50% point in the Aleks program will be a rough equivalent to squeaking out a pass on the DSST instead, but you won't know it cold like you would have if you had continued with Aleks. I hear there are also some very helpful videos at Resource: Against All Odds: Inside Statistics
Good luck!
Good luck!
