Instructions for taking the Assessment

 

1. Sign up to take the exam by clicking on the link in the blue box above.   
2. Set up or renew your account with ALEKS.
   1. If you have never used ALEKS before, start at this link.  
   2. If you already have an ALEKS account, but your access is expired, you will need to sign up for a “new class”. To do this, just log into ALEKS using your ALEKS username and password, then select:
3. Enter the Course Code  TWPMA-G3KLU when prompted.  You will then enter your credit card information to pay the $25 fee to set up your account.  This fee includes FIVE exam attempts as well as 6 months in an adaptive online learning module.   
4. Take a Practice Test and/or and review for the real deal.
   1. If you are setting up or renewing an account, use your first exam as a practice test! (Your score will not count as your placement score.  Only proctored results will be recorded by the registrar.)  
   2. If you have already taken an ALEKS test, use the learning module to review and prepare.   If you have already taken Precalculus (in high school) you should choose the Prep for Calculus module, otherwise you should choose the Prep for Precalculus Module.  Both modules include all of the content from the Prep for College Algebra module.
