What is my Placement result?

The placement result is your overall score on the assessment. This will be a number between 0-100. This represents the percentage of topics that ALEKS has determined you have mastered.

The score identifies which Math course you have placed in based on SFCC’s Cut Scores. If you have any questions regarding your course placement, please schedule an appointment with an advisor.

Please note that starting in the Fall 2024 Semester there will be no prerequisite for Math 1130, meaning students do NOT need to take the ALEKS assessment to place into this course. For the upcoming Summer 2024 Semester, students will still need to take the ALEKS exam. Students who score 30-100 qualify to register for Math 1130 and those who score 0-29 can register for Math 1130 with the 130S corequisite.
