概述

At GSU, we strive to ensure that students are successful in their courses and in their education. 为了实现这一目标, undergraduate students are provided with a number of supports and activities that will help students achieve success in math and English, based in their prior educational experiences and future educational goals.


写位置

All undergraduate students meeting GSU’s admission criteria who still need to take ENGL 1000, 写作研究1将被放在英语1000.

In some cases, students entering GSU will have earned college credit for ENGL 1000. GSU的目录提供了额外的信息 college credit via Advanced Placement and International Baccalaureate programs. Students should also speak with their advisors to determine the status of transferred credits.


统计数据位置

All undergraduate students entering GSU that need to take Math 2100: Elementary Statistics will be required to take the 亚历克斯安置,准备和学习 评估. Students that need extra support to be successful in the course will be enrolled in the companion course Math 2101: Elementary Statistics Laboratory when they register for Math 2100. The statistics laboratory is designed to give students the opportunity to apply the statistics techniques discussed in Math 2100 to real-world application problems, 进一步发展基础数学技能, and to promote growth mindset and self-efficacy as a mathematics student. Math 2101 is college-level course that count as general elective credit towards graduation requirement.

Students may choose to take Math 2100 without the companion laboratory if they demonstrate mathematical proficiency by attaining an ALEKS placement score of 26 or higher. Students having earned credit for a college-level mathematics course prior to registering for Math 2100 are exempt from the ALEKS 评估 requirement.


亚历克斯安置评估

The 亚历克斯安置评估 covers material from pre-algebra, geometry, algebra I &二、三角学. Since the level of difficulty of each question is determined based on the student’s answers to previous questions, some students never advance beyond the Algebra II test questions. The 评估 will take approximately 60–90 minutes to complete. 评估结束后, 一个个性化的, targeted Preparation and Learning Module is available for you to review and practice the material, 以及改善学生的安置和最终的课程成果. You will work your academic advisor to determine the appropriate time to complete your math placement based on your class schedule.

The cost of the ALEKS Placement 评估 and Preparation and Learning module is included in your GSU student fees. 在你第一次监考安置尝试之后, you may log into the account you created to practice the ALEKS exam (up to three times) from any computer with internet access. 然而, the only scores from 评估s proctored on-campus at 十大电子游艺注册立大学 will be considered for placement decisions. Contact the Testing Center to schedule your proctored 亚历克斯安置评估. You may attempt the 亚历克斯安置评估 a total of five times. 然而, 让每一次尝试都值得, you must spend time working in your ALEKS Preparation and Learning Module in between placement 评估s to improve your skills. 两次尝试之间必须等待至少48小时.


免费的ALEKS练习考试

The ALEKS website provides you the opportunity to take a practice test. 实际的分班考试将有多达30个问题. 在练习版中,它将止步于20道题, 然后让你选择一个理解的层次. For 48 hours, you’ll be able to practice questions with feedback in two modes: 1. Review of questions that the placement and your choice of level gave you credit for knowing found in the main menu (three lines at the top left on the home page); and 2. Learning new topics that you are ready to learn that will automatically be presented at the left of the home page.

Here are the steps to get to the practice test and after completion, the review and learning modes:
