ALEKS PPL is a web-based program that uses artificial intelligence to map a student\u2019s strengths and weaknesses. &nbsp;After the Placement Assessment, an individualized Prep and Learning Module is available for students to refresh their knowledge on forgotten topics. Students can use the Prep and Learning Module to feel more ready for their first math class at Monmouth. They also have the opportunity to reassess and improve their placement after going through three or more hours of Prep and Learning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Below are some sample problems and their solutions. This is not a complete list of problems you will see on your ALEKS placement exam, but they can give you an idea of what topics to expect before you get started.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-16018d1d wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.monmouth.edu\/department-mathematics\/documents\/2018\/06\/sample-placement-test-1.pdf\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Placement Test Sample Problems: Part 1<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-16018d1d wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.monmouth.edu\/department-mathematics\/documents\/2018\/06\/sample-placement-test-2.pdf\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Placement Test Sample Problems: Part 2<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-16018d1d wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.monmouth.edu\/department-mathematics\/documents\/2018\/06\/sample-placement-test-solutions-1.pdf\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Placement Test Sample Problems: Part 1 &#8211; Solutions<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-16018d1d wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.monmouth.edu\/department-mathematics\/documents\/2018\/06\/sample-placement-test-solutions-2.pdf\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Placement Test Sample Problems: Part 2 &#8211; Solutions<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Your ALEKS Placement Exam Monmouth University uses an ALEKS Placement, Preparation and Learning (ALEKS PPL) Assessment to determine your readiness for our mathematics courses.
