ALEKS score : which math class should I take?

 

  • No placement: If you receive an email at your PCC email saying you no math placement after you take ALEKS, do not panic. You didn’t do anything wrong!  You can take ALEKS up to 5 times, and we only use your highest score for placement. You will be required to complete a total of 3 hours in the ALEKS review module before a new test attempt unlocks for you. So, access ALEKS through your MyPCC account again and accept the learning module it recommends. Then spend time in the learning module. You can log in and log out at your convenience. After a total of 3 hours a new test will unlock for you. Take ALEKS again. Your score will likely be higher!
