Ew.
February 13, 2025

I've never felt so enraged by a computer as much as I do when I'm on this math program. "program". More like purgatory if that's what you want to call it. This site makes me want to brush my teeth with so much force that it makes my gums bleed and use motor oil as mouth wash after. I'd fight a lion bare handed before I can even look at this waste of space again. This brain damage causing, percs for teaching havin $#*! site makes "Chop Suey!" by System of a Down sound like a motivational song. Have a good day and don't do dru- oops I meant aleks! :) Bye!

F**** Terrible
February 7, 2025

Constant F8in math with no real explanation to the problem, if you use other sites that teach you how to do it. ITS DIFFERENT THAN WHAT THIS F8in ALEKS have to offer. Colleges most likely use this s*** app for budget reasons. Piece of S****, spending hours learning this crap and leave 8 hours of nothing every F**** week.

ALEKS is likely associated with the Illuminati. This is seriously a suicide program. It is a website that is specifically designed to make kids Commit suicide. I know this because I was fired for spreading the word about their dark secret. So I wanted to tell everyone the truth. Its also really scary but did you know that they actually keep track of how much students have had an incident. Here's how they do it. Those who bought the program, do you remember when you buy the stupid site it asks to use your camera but it says "Only on Exams". Its actually not true. It is always monitoring each student when they are on the website. Some reviewers might say, "Its probably because they want to see children get tortured" and honestly this might be part of it. So if you hear then I would seriously, seriously not recommend ALEKS for any professor, student, teacher, or parent. I just hope ALEKS gets sued and put out of business so no one else suffers.

Go kill yourself
January 27, 2025

I come from New York and let me just say, Aleks is the worst program that I ever used. The smoking drug addict that created Aleks should get brutally murdered and get fed to all the lions. I would personally be honored to be the one who shoves a bomb up his butt and makes him frick himself. He should be America's most wanted criminal, let alone the world. Hitler, instead of killing innocent Americans, you should have taken this weight off our shoulders and killed the creator of Aleks. If I was in a room with Hitler, Satan, Obama, and the creator of Aleks and I had a gun with only 3 bullets I would shoot the creator of Aleks 3 times. I would rather put my ballsack inside a blender than do another Aleks topic. To the creator of Aleks, nobody likes you, nobody wants you, and your mom never loved you. Go freaking kill yourself. Go shove a nuke up your butt, then put your ballsack in a lawnmower, then go hang yourself in the shower with your grannies undies and wake up in H#ll cause that's where you belong. Math teachers and students are literally killing themselves. This is the number one cause of death in the world. If there is a world war 3 in the future, this will be what caused it. Go burn in H#ll and give all of us a favor.

I absolutely despise this wretched website. It is not a good or effective teaching method for classes. Teachers should be instructing the students instead of throwing X amount of topics you need to complete. Teach us things that we will ACTUALLY use in real life IN the classroom

This website is seriously $#*!ed and Im pretty sure this is the thing that satan uses to torture kids while he just sits in his dungeon with Dr. Jean-Claude Falmagne (the creator of Aleks) and eats chips while watching everyone suffer. This website made all my friends kill themselves by skydiving without a parachute. Everyone that I know killed themselves after using Aleks. Aleks is seriously suicidle and I'm warning any parents who knows that their kids use this website, Your kids will kill themselves after about 2 days of using this. This is a warning for some of you, and for the other ones of you, it might already be too late so sorry for your loss. Your kids probably enjoyed killing themselves more than doing Aleks. To the creator of Aleks, I really encourage you to go frick yourself then go jump off of a cliff. Also I hate to brake it to you but no one will go to your funeral because no one loves you. After you jump off a cliff your body will just sit there and rot and no one will ever care to find you. I would really enjoy watching you die. You can just shove a grenade up your butt and the whole world would be happier. I'm on the verge of killing myself right now. So for all our sakes, go kill yourself and blow up your app.

THIS IS WERE I DIE
January 28, 2025

Never Again. This app is a gateway to an existential crisis. I am only in 7th grade, but I fell like I've already lost my lides purpose. I've been doing ALEKS for about 5 years and I can guarantee, the person who told you to use this app wants you to die. After 5 years the only thing I learned from ALEKS was hot ot hold a gun up my throat. It is the cause of many deaths, one of Wich included a student brutally cracking there head open with a computer with ALEKS tabed opend on it.

Horrible on all aspects
October 26, 2024

Not only is it a god-awful program that only teaches you how to rip your hair out after trying to understand a topic that Aleks is doing nothing to help teach you they overcharged me and then took MONTHS to refund me the money they overcharged me and as a college student that extra money they charged me would've been very nice to have. Not only was the customer service very delayed when it came to the reimbursement it was also extremely unprofessional, they refused to answer my questions and forgot how much they overcharged me despite me spelling it out multiple times and including an invoice. Very unhelpful I hope the site perishes

ALEKS comes from SATAN!
January 13, 2025

ALEKS is basically Satans strongest army. I mean come on, lets talk about it. Those professors and teachers who see this review, I want to inform you that you are making an important decision that can lead to salvation or Damnation. If you would like to know how to receive salvation then DO NOT GIVE YOUR STUDENTS ALEKS! If youre interested in being casted down to eternal H*LL then GIVE YOUR STUDENTS ALEKS. Anyways, how bout i tell you what it does. It forces student to figure out concepts and problems that they've never seen on their own. The knowledge checks suck nuts! It is basically a way to bring smart kids down percentages. And don't get me wrong, it takes students from 20 minutes to hours to finish 1 topic. And based on my research, most teachers assign their students 20 to 30 topics a week!

This needs to get BANNED I ABSOLUTELY HATE ALEKS ON MY SOUL.

Bad
October 14, 2024

This web program is poorly designed and implemented. Between the slow and outdated UI to the awful and unclear/unhelpful explanations for each problem it is one of the worst educational programs I have come across. That is saying something because the bar is already set fairly low in the industry. There is also "AI" being implemented but there are noticeable patterns being used in the "created" problems. Wish I could give a lower rating.

What?
October 12, 2022

My biggest gripe about the site is how it decides at a random to interject other topics into your work. Like, I have 20 topics due this week and we're going over things like binomial or normal probability- so why does ALEKS make me do relative frequency and histograms? We haven't done this in weeks

Aleks is a site that makes students learn how to get passed a problem, but not actually understand it. The problems provide explanations that are not near thorough enough and even if a concept is understood if you make any little mistakes, this could mean you have 10 more minutes on the same problem that you already understand, keeping you from other topics. It is very inefficient and for students with busy schedules that don't have 15 hours for homework each week, it is not a realistic or efficient teaching tool. This makes busy students try to fake their way past problems to get it done quicker, rather than actually being able to understand it. As a student, I have spent 45+ minutes before on one singular topic that I completely understand, but may just make little copying errors. ALEKS does do a really good job increasing stress and frustration though, so if that's what you're looking for ALEKS may be for you.

First of all, the explanations for the questions you get wrong are very crappy, the only thing they do is give you the answer and some extra words in said explanation. When getting a question wrong, it resets your progress making you stuck on that topic even more. I hate Alex.

Payed money for this scrap
September 14, 2020

Unfortunately, I've payed money for this just to have denied access to my class. **** you. Excuse my language. You took my money and I want it back. I had a good amounts of topics but guess what? They added 9 more topics, thank you so much toe infection. This is like a germ that you can't wash off your body, I feel filthy after using this. I had to take shower after writing this. MY mouth has a bad taste from even thinking about ALEKS. The explanations don't work, I have to go somewhere else to learn the material. Whats the point :( I'm disconsolate.

Aleks sucks
December 21, 2023

Aleks made my school life terrible. Aleks does a horrible job of explaining how to solve math equations. As a student currently, it would be outstanding to remove Aleks from the schools. As a student in the advanced middle school courses, math is already stressful enough, covering standards for this year, and next year, and pre algebra. It would benefit everything to implement a more basic math learning system. In the photo below, that says 50% took me awhile to complete. We have limited time,and Aleks only gives you 1 percent for every 3 topics.

Overview

The company's reputation is significantly marred by overwhelmingly negative feedback regarding its educational platform, which customers describe as ineffective and frustrating. Many users express dissatisfaction with the program's design, claiming it induces stress and confusion rather than facilitating learning. Common complaints include poor explanations, a punitive grading system, and a lack of engaging content. Additionally, customer service experiences are often characterized by delays and unprofessionalism, particularly concerning billing issues. Overall, the sentiment reflects a deep frustration with both the product and the support provided, indicating a need for substantial improvements in both areas.
