Aside from constantly having to YouTube Khan Academy, ask for help from my professor, friends and family and only get one lesson done per 2.5 hours, ALEKS truly does suck. It shortcuts explanations, leading you to a level of confusion and stress you've never been to. It gives you lessons on math that I can guarantee you'll never use in real life, like literally never! Oh and those "Knowledge Checks"? Yeah thanks for those, every few hours and then conveniently knocking me back 10-20 lessons on average. It would seem like ALEKS wants you to fail, my friends warned me about this program, apparently I should've listened. Can't believe I payed money for this thing.

As a freshman in college being forced to use ALEKS (for the first time ever) i've never hated math more. It's possibly the worst program for math ever created. I would rather be in a normal math class and use a normal textbook with normal paper tests and quizzes. The program literally makes you feel like you'really the stupidest person on the planet. I've always had a B or C average in my math classes, i've always somewhat struggled in math, but never like this. It has un-realistic requirements. Do your best to avoid ever having to deal with ALEKS.

The Aleks program has a difficult and unrealistic curriculum that gets to no goal. When students are finished with a Mass amount of topics, they are rewarded with nothing greater that a test to check this knowledge. If they do not get EVERYTHING right they get even more topics to "master" a skill. While it is not hard to use a personal calculator in Aleks, if you get one question wrong if pushes you very far back. Also teachers, do you expect your students to pace themselves everyday on top of other homework and events? If you do... your wrong.

First off, i've learned nothing since i've started using this app. Absolutely nothing. This app has taught not taught me nor my friends a single thing. There is nothing stimulating, it 100% kills creativity, and is dull. To put it simply, Aleks is boring. I've grown weary of the repetitive topics, the underwhelming knowledge checks, and most importantly, Aleks doesn't teach. I've yet to learn a single thing. Me, a young girl with ADHD, find this a very discreditable application compared to various other mathematics-teaching software. In conclusion, this program is definitely not worth the purchase. If you're looking for a good math app for school or personal use, I advise you to seek another one.

Aleks does nothing but make students frustrated and overwhelmed. There's a difference between homework and a $#*!ing torture session. This is the worst learning platform because it makes you so frustrated to the point where you'd rather quit and fail the class then try another topic for one more second. The person who made this is a sadist and needs to be locked up for causing so much emotional harm to students and their families.

Aleks is so stupid as an advanced algebra kid the topics in Aleks are harder then what we are doing in class and I end up getting to the hard topics in aleks before I get there in class and Aleks does a horrible job explaining how to do a problem so if you want to have your students to kill themselves this is the way so I beg you as someone who loves math don't give your students aleks. Please like I beg of you this program making me suicidal.

Problem with aleks, They make you pay same price as a College book 1 semester = 76 dollars, which mean after 18 weeks your little account is like worthless. For a book you can buy and keep it sell it back make some little money. And it make student live horrible by this if you mess up your first ever test t see your skill, if you get a bad score you got double triple homework, and if you get wrong in 1 problem it say Do it more

I don't even know where to being with this pile of crap. First of all I get making us do modules for the lessons we missed. HOWEVER the quizzes in between that can up to 30 questions is absolutely ridiculous. Since the "modules" are just me doing the problem over and over again until I finally get it all right is time consuming and trivial in of itself. But the fact that I can get set back from the overly long quiz and am forced to redo it is absolutely and absurd and ridiculous waste of my time. I've never seen a worse program set up in my entire life. This should be illegal.

Aleks makes me sad. I know that schools use Aleks because it uses technology to help students learn more, but it doesn't work. I am constantly having to do random knowledge checks and it is very annoying. It does not teach me anything because it barely explains what you did wrong and you can't ask questions. Aleks makes me stressed and anxious and it takes up a lot of my time when I already have a busy schedule. Educators and teachers may love it, but it just makes my life harder. Whoever gave Aleks a 5 star review, must be a robot.

Horrible interface. Absolutely no redeeming qualities. Using this website as a college student is one of the most frustrating experiences I've ever had in all my years of education. When you submit an answer, it doesn't provide you with your answer if you get it wrong, so you can't even tell what you really did wrong without attempting it more, and if you get more wrong in a row, it forces you to work on something else. It's a terrible website all around. Would give it zero stars if I could.

This is the worst app I have ever used for tutoring it is going to make me fail this course and put me behind a whole year in college. If you get too many wrong it will make you stop and change topics which does not help at all when trying to learn something. It will time you out after 10 minutes and I have been in the middle of a long problem and will have to start all over again. It touches on random topics and will jump around making it difficult to retain information. It will also add a point if you get two answers correct in a row but then make you start all over again if you get one wrong making you redo 5 problems again. I absolutely hate this app and hope I never have to use it ever again. I got one problem wrong in the photo below and now have to redo 5 problems and it is the very last topic I need to complete the class in order to take the final. I hate this app and it ruined my first summer in college I hope no one ever spends money on this company again.

It just discourages our children from learning and advancing. It should be taken out of schools and colleges. I would like to know how many people had to drop classes, because of this software and not ruin their GPA. Is there a civil lawsuit for people to get their money back?

This website makes me want to off my self. The way it does this is by having inconsistent useless problems that have no real point in my education. Most teachers use this site as a way of assigning homework without having to do any work. Believe it is a complete waste of money and time this was probably used to torture Jews in nazi camps.
