I’m a huge fan!Both the Accuplacer and ALEKS courses were spot.I set a goal to see if I could cram learn and test into precalculus/ trigonometry inside of just two weeks - and I did it!I sincerely could barely do the foil method and I didn’t even know how to do long division and because of the course, and particularly Matt’s clarity in the lessons, I now play with functions for fun. :)Super grateful.

I just want to start off by saying that your Accuplacer program was the most comprehensive, well put together course I’ve ever taken. Thank you so much for it, I felt SO prepared by the time I finished. There were SOOOO many aspects that I could barely even remember (things I hadn’t seen in over 20yrs!). With that been said, after finishing your course… I ended up scoring in the highest percentile! So thank you again and again! It was money well spent, and very much so worth it!

The Accuplacer test went well. I was aiming for intermediate algebra so that way I could go straight into statistics for my nursing program. I scored 267 on next-gen quantitative reasoning, algebra and statistics along with a score of 241 in next-gen advanced algebra and functions and placed perfectly into statistics, so thank you again. I believe all of the word problems on the website helped. Any standard graphing, algebra, or geometry questions that came up on the test I was able to solve without much difficulty. I’m coming from graduating high school in 2011 and I have been out of practice with math.

I started using MathHelp because I was going to take a placement test to go back to College. The test went really well. My score on Quantitative Reasoning, Algebra, and Statistics was 274 which is very good for the Next-Gen Accuplacer test. The lady at the College said it was the best score she had seen in a while. I have nothing but to thank MathHelp for the review and the very well structured and easy to follow classes, it really helped me. I'm starting College Algebra this upcoming Spring Semester and will definitely come back to MathHelp in case I need some outside help.

First off, I just want to say thank you because these lessons helped me so much to prepare. I have been out of school for a long time and recently decided to take the plunge to go back. Before I did I had to retake my math Accuplacer and was incredibly nervous about doing so as math was never my strong suit in school. The lessons on Math Help really allowed me to understand the material in a simplistic way that I could retain easily. I took my test today and did way better than I expected. From the bottom of my heart I just want to say thank you so much for this invaluable resource for people like myself who may struggle immensely with math.

I qualified for my goal of College Algebra. I haven't taken a math class since 2004 and have always disliked it. I found your Accuplacer QAS and AAF lessons to be easy to follow and actually looked forward to them. I liked that the videos and lessons were short so that I could stay focused with review questions at the end. I am very happy with my results, and I would recommend this course to anyone wanting to prepare for the test. i’m

My Accuplacer test went great, the lessons helped a lot. I’d say the most helpful bit was how each subject had the videos, practice, and a test. It really helped me figure out which sections I needed to study more. Thank everyone with MathHelp for your help!

I passed the Accuplacer! Thank you for the help. The way the course was set up felt like I was in a real classroom, where I could see the work being done with tips and tricks here and there. The practice questions after the introduction helped alot as well. I will definitely sign up again if I need math help again. The lessons on fractions, and all algebra lessons helped the most. Honestly, the whole course helped especially after not having math for 5 years.

I am horrible with math was a blank slate prior to MathHelp as I haven’t touched math in nearly 2 years. I found the short 45 second to 1 min videos to be tremendously helpful. Very straight forward and I never felt lost. I made above average on my accuplacer! Will definitely be using again for standardized tests in the future.

My AccuPlacer test went well. I had taken it once before, but the score wasn’t high enough to get into the program I wanted to get in to. I signed up for MathHelp and when I retook the test, my score went up 20 points. Everything was very helpful— I’m more of an independent learner so it was nice having something where I could pace myself. I liked the way the lessons were sectioned into categories. Thanks!

I was able to pass my accuplacer as a sophomore in Highschool within only a couple days of using the program. Thanks to math help I’ve gotten a huge academic head start!

My Accuplacer test went well; I passed! I very much enjoyed the lessons, and found them to be helpful and engaging. This is probably the most thorough and well thought out math website I’ve ever used. Thank you for all your hard work!

In school I had big problems with math and always considered myself like a liberal arts person. But with this course I prepared for the Accuplacer to be able to take classes I need in college without mandatory remedial classes and I even fell in love with math. And now I understand it very well, thanks to you, and I find it charming to solve different type of equations. Even though English is not my first language I was able to understand everything. So after preparation from scratch I passed this test very easily to the level I needed. So thank you, guys! You’ve made a great product!

The Accuplacer Elementary Algebra exam went really well. I was able to place into my appropriate college algebra class, and I surprised myself with my score even. I had not been in school for years and the courses on MathHelp made jumping back in so much easier. There were so many helpful elements of the course. The instructional videos and the practice exam were instrumental in helping me.

I hadn't practiced math in 7 years, but going through the course helped me place high on my Accuplacer QAS test! I'll be attending University this fall and couldn't have done it without MathHelp.com
