I hate it so much. The "Smart Textbook" isn't about learning, it's about getting stuff done. The slideshows and textbooks don't line up. The slideshows are inaccurate. My professor is crashing out rn because how the heck do smartphones and home equity have in common?!

i hate aleks

Honestly, I would give 0 stars if I could, Alek puts all my peers through torture every week, they expect me to do 10 topics a week and get into algebra? Heck no! It will mark my answers wrong for not capitalizing letters, and why does it have to add a graph to EVERY QUESTION. When am I ever going to be doing angles and use a line graph. Overall if you're looking for a math program DO NOT waste your money or time on Alek- it's basically torture.

Okay, so I was doing history for McGraw Hill and it says “type the answer.” So I do, and it gets listed as wrong. Astonishing part, the correct answer is the exact same as the answer I inputted. Fix this bullshit website now!

Their online software is the absolute worst garbage I've ever used and they know it's a crime to charge $140 for it. My professor sometimes has to make points adjustments because I can't figure out why an answer is marked as wrong and then when she looks at it, she confirms that I have the right answer. This software and company are that staggeringly bad. The way I vet future courses from now on will include making sure they use nothing from McGraw Hill.

It is slow, says right answers are wrong, has this dumb knowledge checks that are annoying and stressful, it remove process if you get one wrong and teaches you the wrong answers.

Such a joke. I learn absolutely nothing. How on earth am I expected to remember 25 topics within one week? And then I have to take a knowledge check on over 100 topics as if anyone is able to remember any of that? Then I get one question wrong and it automatically means that the questions I got right previously are now wrong lol oh my God what a joke

Well first I need to say that ALEKS is the worst education Platform out there! There are plenty of problems I can mention. It is filled with bugs, kicks you out constantly, and tells you your wrong when your right!!! Like, wtf. To add on that last part you need to picture yourself taking a math test. So lets say you get the first problem right. Then you move on to the second problem and you get it wrong. But then since you got the second one wrong, your teacher takes the points from your second one AND the first one(Even though the first one was right). ITS NOT FAIR AND NO ONE SHOULD USE IT!!! If you really want to teach math effectively, you should fix your crappy website and help students learn by not marking them wrong on questions they got right!
