Some students are able to place into Intermediate Algebra using this course, but it’s designed to place you into Elementary Algebra. Therefore, anything beyond Elementary Algebra is a bonus.
This course is not designed to place you into College Algebra. If you would like to place into College Algebra, we recommend our ALEKS College Algebra Readiness course.
The basic skills that you’ll need to learn to place out of at least one remedial course are the topics you would see in a traditional Pre-Algebra course. These topics include Whole Numbers, Integers, Fractions, Decimals, Ratio, and Proportion, as well as an introduction to Algebra, Geometry, Probability, and Statistics.
My ALEKS test went great. I needed a 46 to enter the math 1153 course at my university. I haven’t had math practice for over 3 years, so going into the test was very nerve wracking. I got a 52 on my first attempt which was truly a huge relief. The whole course was very helpful for me to be completely honest. All the reviews and topics were very relevant for what I saw in the ALEKS test.Krue Hales - November 2025
My Aleks test went well, I improved my score from a 30 to a 52. Which got me into the class I needed. One of the most helpful elements of the course was the teachers writing out every single step of the problem. And that the answers were also well written out during the practice section so I could easily see where I went wrong. As well as the links in the bottom left corner that directed you back to lessons on the foundations of what you were doing for when I forgot. Thank you for making such wonderful resource!Brighton Bolinder - October 2024
It was great! I scored high enough on the ALEKS to qualify out of the pre-req. I liked the explanations and how it broke things out easily.Cassandra Lipin - May 2024
