Reasons Why IXL is Horrible

The Top Ten

1 It makes students want to procrastinate

2 It takes forever to progress

3 It is boring

4 It makes students not want to learn

5 One wrong move makes you go back a large amount of points

IXL might possibly be one of the worst math extensions in history. Not only does it give you pointless quests for crappy prizes, it also steals a large portion of your progress if you get a question wrong.

I agree! It's worse in the 90 section. If you get 5 questions right, you only get 5 points. If you get ONE question wrong, you lose 10 points. This is so stupid!

6 The "rewards" are garbage

Basically a garbage. IXL does nothing to help problems with math

7 It costs way too much

8 The Challenge Zone makes you only advance 1 point each question

Yeah. Because if you get 5 questions right, you only go up 5 points. But if you get one question wrong, you lose 10 points. What is that logic?

9 It causes rage

10 It is stupid

The Contenders

11 The score goes down when you get an answer wrong

12 It's stressful
