ALEKS Placement Scores
The information below shows where your assessment score places you, according to Major.
*If you have placed into Math 147 Pre-Calculus, and you are planning to pursue Biochemistry, Chemistry, Computer Science, Economics, Mathematics, Physics or Engineering degrees, we strongly encourage you to either retake ALEKS in an attempt to improve your placement to MATH 157, or to enroll for a Pre-Calculus course this summer. MATH 147 Pre-Calculus is planned to be offered this Summer at Gonzaga University. New students interested in summer session courses must do so through the Gonzaga University Summer Term program.
