Quiz 2 uses the ALEKS assessment to measure students’ group-level understanding of algebra for Math 13X00 courses. Students must complete the assessment to the best of their ability within an estimated 45 minutes, typically 20–30 questions. Credit depends on on-time completion, not the ALEKS score. The assessment may include challenging items for higher-level math preparation, and students should use “do not know” when applicable.
