Placement Test Tutorial

• This tutorial is appropriate for students who feel they are ready for a college-level math course, but need a short refresher to prepare for the placement test.
• It is also appropriate (and encouraged) for students who took the placement test and scored above 50% (but below 75%) and wish to eventually retake it (for a $20 fee).
• The tutorial contains an instruction booklet for the ALEKS website, a course code for the tutorial, and a registration code that allows you unlimited access to ALEKS for up to 6 weeks.
• After registering with the ALEKS tutorial, you will be given an "initial assessment" (similar to the placement test) to determine your strengths and weaknesses.
• You will then be guided through an interactive tutorial based on your needs. The tutorial provides practice problems, explanations, and assessments.
• When you feel you are ready to take the placement test, follow the instructions for the Math Placement Test
• Contact the Placement Administrator if you have any questions or if you wish to retake the test.
