I hate this website i never want to see it again ive never had such a horrible experience with any website in my entire life id rather jump off a cliff then type this website into google ever again even looking at this site brings a tear to my eyes and i quiver everytime i hear the name "aleks" you will never be hearing from me ever again if i dont respond just know alkes did this and i will cry and cry and cry. If i could give -******* stars i would thank you for your time :(
Been using this program during my school year and god knows why but it's a grade, it's actually the reason i can't pass! But it can't even use itself, it needs you to follow everything exactly. And it's "examples" are extremely long and more complicated than it needs to be, don't get me started on the poor mechanics and downright dastardly layout.
The maker clearly has no clue how students effectively learn, and this program is another crystal clear reason why teachers shouldn't be paid as much as they are. This website is an excuse for teachers to not do their jobs and TEACH their students instead of forcing them to work on some bat$#*! insane site.
I hope the creator of this horrible site goes to hell
I am a High School student and in my opinion, Aleks is the worst program that ever existed, even when aleks gives us the process of finding the answers it doesn't even tell you why you should either add or subtract the values, it just types it out and being done with
It makes kids get so upset and it doesn't even know how to calculate correctly. I tried Aleks and it sucks it's the worst sight ever!
I've had to use ALEKS twice now for college and I wish this program was never invented. It's absolute garbage. An entire dumpster fire. It has done NOTHING for my education but make me very miserable and extremely pissed off any time I have to do anything on ALEKS. Whoever wrote up the explanations for ALEKS did a piss poor job. The worst part is when you get a question wrong, it docks a point you had accumulated for getting questions right. That literally does nothing but make me less likely to actually want to learn the subject I'm being forced to learn. For anyone not being forced to use ALEKS, use Sophia learning. Sophia actually teaches you the concepts in a way you can understand and doesn't punish you for getting a question wrong.
This is the worst website ever it fills me with rage 10 topics every week my angry math teacher will email people if i didnt do 10 topics this also hurts my brain im not joking my brain will hurt from this i can feel the tears coming down when ever its a monday i think oh 10 more topics at least its the end of the school year 2 weeks left and after this year no more aleks i will be so happy that ill never see that horrible $#*!ing website ever again everybody hates this if you like aleks you are not human at this point i dont even feel like doing aleks anymore i have to PUSH MYSELF to do aleks even tho i would do anything not to do aleks everybody hates it that i know please let this website get shutdown aleks is the worst punishment it ruins my sanity im I think this business is very horrible and they need to wake the f up and realize there torturing children whenever i have to do this for hw i save it for last so with everything else i cant relax my brain on the other stuff then go to hell i dont know what i did to deserve this help me
Aleks makes me want to look up how to alt f4 my life and it brings me depression, It tells you draw a circle yet if your off by a nanometer your wrong. My school paid "good money" for aleks.
Most questions you can just google the answer of something, but when it comes to graphing and stuff, no matter what you do, sometimes you are just wrong, even if the "explanation" says that your answer is the same as the correct one, it will still mark you wrong and you will lose progress on your work.
I $#*!ing hate aleks because it $#*!ing sucks and its a piece of $#*!ing $#*! i $#*!ing hate it i $#*!ing i hate $#*! $#*! $#*! $#*! $#*! $#*! crap piece of software I hope the creator $#*!ing dies in a hole filled with carnivorous plants to suck the lifeforce out of him slowly so that he can feel every last pitiful breath be taken out of his $#*!ing lungs. $#*! $#*! $#*! $#*! $#*! $#*! $#*! $#*! $#*! damn i hate aleks.: smile:
Aleks is downright bad. Its worse then stage four cancer. It does numbers on your brain. Hell, it deals so much damage to your brain that it gives brain eating amoeba a run for its money. Aleks is a disgusting, horrible learning site that forces you to repeat the same topic over and over and over again. Get two questions wrong, and it'll make you REDO THE WHOLE TOPIC, NO MATTER HOW MUCH PROGRESS YOU HAVE. And this is especially bad if your teachers are cruel, and assign you daily topics. The *knowledge checks (*Read as: Torture sessions) makes you want to shoot yourself in the head with a high caliber pistol. If you ever consider downloading aleks, DONT. Instead, go jump off the golden gate bridge. It hurts less, and you'll go to a better place.
My dad cut off my balls My dad cut off my balls My dad cut off my balls My dad cut off my balls My dad cut off my balls My dad cut off my balls My dad cut off my balls My dad cut off my balls My dad cut off my balls My dad cut off my balls My dad cut off my balls My dad cut off my balls My dad cut off my balls My dad cut off my balls My dad cut off my balls My dad cut off my balls My dad cut off my balls My dad cut off my balls My dad cut off my balls My dad cut off my balls My dad cut off my balls My dad cut off my balls My dad cut off my balls My dad cut off my balls My dad cut off my balls My dad cut off my balls My dad cut off my balls
This is the worst website in the world no one should use this site I have had to redo college for five years because of this website it would not have the right answer I did not learn anything it kept saying I got it wrong when I got it right and it would not show the topics I managed to do and when I reported the glitch they said to F off and to stop bugging them and then banned me from this website and every day I still get emails about how I should F off and I should go to hell and how I am s**t and they tried to sue me for making false things and disrupting them from important meeting. PLEASE NEVER USE THIS WEBSITE.
I had a simple question abut Aleks. BUT SHE BLOCKED ME! I did nothing wrong. She reported me for saying "I'm having Aleks issues". WHO DOES THAT! You need to fire her immediatly. Her name is Shanned G.
First of it glitches, and second of it's doing nothing for my learning it just makes me learn things i all ready know and my GOD knowledge checks they do it all the time DO NOT TEACH WITH ALEKS
This is the worst $#*!in website for actually learning $#*!, god damn!, thank god its my last year in h. S, who ever thought ''hey this will help kids learn math" seriously needs their voting privilege taken away.
It makes me fill as if I would rather have cancer than do it and my mom can't help me because she read the question and like $#*! this $#*! and then I like my teacher should just actually do something and staid of sitting on their on $#*! the whole time and Aleks is there worst thing ever invent when it paten goes I'm going to tell it and through it in the ocean
This TRASH website pulls virtual wanting schools into their abyss and forces schools to sign contracts just because its cheaper and people don't give a $h*t about kids at all.
Not only that Aleks is DESIGNED to stress you and help you UNLEARN important things i mean honestly my dog can do more math then this website and my dog is dead. Please dont use this its a waste of time and money
Edited grammar btw.
F*CK%NG trash and also its boring. One good thing about my aleks is that my teacher AT LEAST grades it. Nobody should waster their time of their life on aleks.
Most of the time when i did a topic it would count it wrong. And it is just to hard, i hate doing math on aleks. The creator really didn't care and its not meant for mentally ill students.(depressed, ADHD, ADD, ETC) i find it very hard to do.
Where to begin? This website does absolutely nothing to teach students about the topics they're supposed to be learning. Completing chemistry questions is nothing but a hassle because if you get one wrong, you lose points because we have to get three in a row? The mechanisms for drawing molecules for organic chemistry is a joke. I am so glad that this is my last semester of chemistry because if I had to deal with Aleks for a second semester, I'd transfer universities.
Answer: Because the ALEKS program is literal hell and we people are just showing our hatred for it
Answer: Most likely.
Answer: Yes deal with it
Answer: Because people want to commit suicide in an original way, and ALEKS is the best way.
Answer: I don't think so but believe me a class action suit would be an improvement
Answer: I paid over $150 for this sumbi**h, I expect it to work
Answer: No i do not think the website owner has issued one but I think the feelings for aleks would be "down the toilet"
Answer: I realize this reply is very late but in case for anyone who needs it: -Let's say you're learning how to use long division. They have 3 questions in it. You master the first one, then go on to the next one. You get the second one wrong, guess what? They punish you and take back your first answer so now you have to answer it again. -How fun! And don't forget the useless knowledge checks!
