The ALEKS went so well!! I placed exactly into the college math class I needed, skipping algebra 1-3 and into statistics!! Without this course through mathhelp.com I would have had to take 4 math classes before this class I needed for my bachelor’s degree! I loved the details in the instructions and mini practice quizes and the different types of problems. In high school I remember the teacher showing only one example then the test would have a different type of problem and I didn't know how to do that type of problem such as reciprocals and negative on the bottom instead of the top and so much more! The explanations of why the problem is wrong on your tests helped tremendously as well. Your course was amazing.

I honestly have only good things to say about the experience! I was aiming for anywhere above 61 on my ALEKS test and scored a 64. I found it really helpful to have practice questions and quiz questions so the user has a feedback loop on their progress and confidence in the topic. Also, the ability to toggle between the practice/quiz questions and the associated lecture if you get a question wrong was very helpful. Most importantly the clarity of your explanations and example questions were right on point! Thank you very much!

The best course I had. I scored 86 on the ALEKS test thanks to this class. The most helpful content for me was the simplified videos and the quizzes.

I loved your teaching throughout this program! Thank you for all the hard work you put into compiling and teaching such a stream-lined curriculum. I only needed to test into MAT142 at Arizona State University to continue my education but it’s been 15 years since my last math course and as a nurse, I use some basic math for drug dosage calculations or area under the curve for chemotherapy calculations but this program was a great refresher for everything in between. I had super limited time to view the program, so I had to skip some on the more advanced trig, calculus and statistics sections and go ahead and take the ALEKS test so I could enroll for spring semester but I was able to test in to the math class I needed, so I consider it a success. I wouldn’t have felt anywhere near as confident going in if I hadn’t completed the program first.

I definitely think every section was very well thought out. The practice questions and the test questions were a definite bonus. It gave me plenty of chances to try out problems without guidance and the ability to review the written out solution for each answer was phenomenal. I was also grateful for the ability to skip around, to see my progress and scores and to be able to speed up the audio for each section. The reminders and pointing out the common mistakes that students make was a great touch! It made me think about what could trip me up later on and those little tidbits will stick with me.

I sincerely appreciate your help and I may be back later on if my course doesn’t provide the caliber of teaching that this program did.

The ALEKS test went as well as it could for somebody that’s been out of the classroom for 25 years. The MathHelp site actually helped me a ton to prep. I don't have to take remedial math thank goodness. The ALEKS prep broke out the subjects beautifully and allowed you to build on it if you needed to. I hopped around a bit myself, but overall super easy to navigate either way you do it. Thanks!

Thanks to Mathhelp I scored three levels above where I needed to be on my Aleks test. Fantastic course. I really liked how you could change the speed of playback - I would usually watch at 1.5x speed. If I could have done that when I was taking math in high school I wouldn't have been so bored. The tests and review units were all really well done and everything helped. Thanks so much for all the work you put into this, it's really great!

The ALEKS program was very helpful with the perfect balance of instruction and practice.

The ALEKS test went great. I hadn't taken a math class for over 5 years so I was a little nervous to take the test so I wanted to be as prepared as possible when taking the test. It was really helpful in refreshing my memory and teaching me things I never learned. What I found most helpful was the video lessons as they helped walk me through everything. The program was really helpful.

What's the best way to use your TSI study guide?

Each lesson in our Texas Success Initiative Assessment study guide begins with the link to a pre-test that allows you to determine if you need that particular lesson. If you score well, you can skip the lesson. If you score poorly, then go into the lesson and master the concept using all of the tutoring we provide. By taking advantage of these quick practice tests, you can move through the program as efficiently as possible.

On the other end of the spectrum, if you're still having difficulty with a lesson - even after the help from our teachers - we provide background lessons that allow you to strengthen your understanding of the basic concepts behind the lesson you're studying. These can be a life-saver for anyone with a particularly weak background in math.

What is the TSI math test?

The math section of the TSI Test is used by Texas public colleges to assess your abilities in order to determine which math class is best suited to your skills.

It’s important to be prepared for the TSI test because the result of getting a low score is that you’ll be placed in a remedial math class. This will be a drain on your time and your finances that you could have easily avoided.

The content on the TSI math test includes topics from algebra, geometry, measurement, statistical reasoning, and probability. Many of these TSI math questions can be difficult for students. That’s why we’re here – to help you understand these challenging concepts and make sure you can escape remedial math.

How can I best prepare for the TSI?

Although the TSI covers several subject areas, math is usually the one that holds students back. Our TSI study guide will help you focus on this critical area and ace the math placement test when the time comes. You won't need any other resources, which makes your preparation very straightforward and takes the stress away. Additionally, completing a TSI math practice test will ensure you are well-prepared for the exam day.
