Honor Code Academic integrity is a serious matter at JMU. Suspension or expulsion are possible penalties for violating the Honor Code. Cheating, copying, plagiarizing, improper citations and buying or using papers written by someone else are a few examples of violations that have the potential to jeopardize your status as a student. When you take placement exams (ALEKS Math and Foreign Language), you are bound by the JMU Honor Code. We want you to have a successful experi- ence and it is imperative that you are in the right class for that to happen. Com- plete the test by Oct. 1.
ALEKS Math Assessment COMPLETE BY MAY 23 The ALEKS Math Assessment is a 25-item, open-response, web-based math placement assessment used to assess your current working knowledge of math principles from algebra through precalculus. All first-year students are required to take the assessment. Your score is used to determine the appropriate math course you should take based on your current mastery of math skills and knowledge. Please allow three hours to complete the assessment. Your score will be available in MyMadison within 24 hours of completion. You will need your score for class enrollment. You can take the ALEKS assessment up to three times. In order to retake the assessment, you must wait 48 hours after you have taken the assessment and spend at least three hours in the Preparation and Learning Modules provided in the ALEKS. The highest score of all attempts will be used for enrollment. Visit the ALEKS Math Assessment FAQs for more information.
