You may work ahead and complete extra hours. You can take advantage of the extra tutoring or finish some of your hours ahead of time.

Please know that I am a resource and am here to help you. ALC/ALM classes in combination with the ALEKS program are a wonderful way to fill in any gaps in your math skills and increase your confidence and foundations in math. Students that use ALEKS to its full potential and ask for help when needed are pleasantly surprised by the gains they make in mathematics.

This is a 30 hour lab course for 1 credit sections and 60 hour lab course for 2 credit sections. This will roughly be broken down as follows:
