Because students come in with a wide variety of strengths and backgrounds in chemistry, it is reasonable to expect that there will be various levels of readiness among entering students. Through artificial-intelligence and adaptive questioning, ALEKS quickly and accurately determines exactly what a student knows and doesn't know in chemistry. ALEKS then instructs the student on the topics he or she is most ready to learn.

ALEKS Placement, Preparation, and Learning for Chemistry will help refine chemistry course selections to match the most appropriate course for each student.
