College Math Placement Test Prep: ALEKS, ACCUPLACER, TSIA2, CLEP

It depends on the college, so check its testing or advising page. Many use ALEKS PPL or ACCUPLACER, Texas public colleges use the TSIA2 for non-exempt students, and CLEP College Algebra is a separate credit-by-exam test. In the free demo class we help you identify your test and the course you are aiming for.

College Board's math tests include Arithmetic, Quantitative Reasoning, Algebra, and Statistics (QAS), and Advanced Algebra and Functions (AAF). College Board says QAS covers topics such as rational numbers, ratios, exponents, linear equations, probability and sets, statistics and geometry, and AAF covers linear, quadratic, rational, radical, polynomial and exponential equations and functions, plus some geometry and trigonometry. Both are computer adaptive and multiple choice.

McGraw Hill says its open-response Placement Assessment uses 25 questions or less to measure knowledge across 314 topics, placing students from Basic Math to Calculus. It also describes 12 months' access to a personalized learning module and up to five assessment attempts, though each college sets its own rules on attempts.

The Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board's brochure says a student is college ready in mathematics with a score of 950 to 990 on the College Readiness Classification test, or a score below 950 with a diagnostic level of 6 on the Diagnostic test. The CRC test has 20 questions, and the TSIA2 is computer adaptive and untimed.

A College Board credit-by-exam test with approximately 60 questions in 90 minutes and an on-screen scientific calculator. College Board lists algebraic operations (25%), equations and inequalities (25%), functions and their properties (30%) and number systems and operations (20%). The American Council on Education recommends a credit-granting score of 50, but each college sets its own policy.

No. A placement test should show what you truly know, so that you start in a course you can succeed in. We teach the math beforehand and never help during a real test. McGraw Hill, for example, describes lockdown browser and webcam proctoring for ALEKS PPL, and colleges set their own integrity rules.

Yes. The course starts with a diagnostic and rebuilds arithmetic from fractions and percents, so nobody is left behind. Many adults find that relearning the basics properly makes algebra much easier.

The full course is 4 months. If your test date is close, a focused 1-on-1 plan can target only the topics your diagnostic shows you need. Retesting rules differ by test and college, so check yours before you book.

No, and nobody honest can. Placement and credit decisions belong to your college. What we give is real relearning of the math, honest practice in your test's format and a clear plan for your weak topics.
