About McGraw-Hill Connect

McGraw-Hill Connect is one of the “big three” online homework platforms, alongside Pearson MyLab and Cengage WebAssign. It’s used at thousands of colleges and universities for courses in accounting, economics, statistics, math, finance, business, and science.

Connect includes several integrated tools that students must navigate: homework assignments with auto-grading, SmartBook 2.0 adaptive reading modules, LearnSmart practice exercises, and proctored testing options (often through Proctorio or Respondus LockDown Browser). The platform ties directly into your course grade — miss a SmartBook deadline or fail a Connect quiz, and your GPA takes the hit.

The platform is designed for efficiency, not flexibility. Connect’s auto-grader is strict about formatting, SmartBook forces you through “Recharge” loops if you miss questions, and the adaptive system can feel like it’s working against you rather than helping you learn. Students who fall behind find the workload compounds fast.

If you’re taking accounting through Connect, you’re likely using textbooks like Spiceland’s Intermediate Accounting, Garrison’s Managerial Accounting, or Libby’s Financial Accounting. For economics, common titles include McConnell’s Economics and Colander’s Microeconomics/Macroeconomics. Statistics courses often use Bowerman’s Business Statistics or Lind’s Statistical Techniques. Finance students might recognize Ross’s Corporate Finance or Brealey’s Principles of Corporate Finance. We’ve worked with all of them.

Why Students Struggle

McGraw-Hill Connect combines rigid grading with adaptive modules that can feel punishing. Here’s what makes it hard:

The Problem	How We Fix It
“SmartBook takes forever.” SmartBook 2.0’s adaptive reading forces you through content, asks metacognition questions (“How confident are you?”), and triggers “Recharge” sessions when you miss questions. What should take 30 minutes can consume hours.	Our specialists move through SmartBook efficiently. We know how the adaptive system works and complete assignments without getting stuck in recharge loops. SmartBook completed fast.
“Connect marks correct answers wrong.” The auto-grader is picky about formatting — dollar signs, decimal places, parentheses for negatives, specific notation. Your answer can be mathematically correct but still marked wrong.	We know Connect’s formatting requirements for each subject. Accounting entries, statistics notation, finance calculations — formatted exactly how the system wants. Formatting mastered.
“LearnSmart modules are tedious.” LearnSmart adaptive practice asks hundreds of questions, tracks what you’ve “learned,” and requires mastery before you can move on. It’s designed for learning, but when you’re juggling multiple classes, it’s just another time sink.	We complete LearnSmart modules efficiently, building the mastery the system requires without you spending hours clicking through questions. LearnSmart handled.
“The homework problems don’t match the textbook.” Connect often uses different numbers, scenarios, or problem types than what’s in the textbook or lecture. You can understand the concept but still struggle with the specific application.	Our experts work directly in your Connect account, solving the exact problems assigned to you — not generic examples from a textbook. Your actual problems solved.
“I’m already behind and can’t catch up.” Missed SmartBook assignments, failed quizzes, an exam coming up. Connect courses move fast, and once you’re behind, the adaptive system makes catching up even harder.	We can take over from wherever you are — clear the backlog, complete current work, and prepare for upcoming exams. Full course recovery available. Get back on track.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is McGraw-Hill Connect?

McGraw-Hill Connect is an online homework, assessment, and learning platform used at thousands of colleges. It includes auto-graded homework, SmartBook adaptive reading, LearnSmart practice modules, and exam proctoring options. It’s used for accounting, economics, statistics, math, finance, and science courses.

What’s the difference between Connect and ALEKS?

Both are owned by McGraw-Hill, but they work differently. Connect is a traditional homework platform with assignments, quizzes, and SmartBook reading. ALEKS is a fully adaptive system that uses a “pie” chart to track mastery and triggers Knowledge Checks that can subtract progress. We help with both — see our ALEKS help page for more.

Can you help with SmartBook 2.0 assignments?

Yes. SmartBook is one of the most time-consuming parts of Connect courses. Our specialists complete SmartBook modules efficiently, navigating the adaptive system and “Recharge” loops without wasting hours.

Which subjects do you cover?

All major Connect subjects: Accounting (Financial, Managerial, Intermediate, Cost), Statistics, Economics (Micro, Macro, Managerial), Finance (Corporate, Personal, Investments), Math (Algebra through Calculus), and Science (Chemistry, Biology, A&P, Microbiology).

How fast can you complete my assignment?

Most homework is completed within 24-48 hours. SmartBook modules and quizzes often same-day. For emergencies (due in hours), contact us immediately — we have experts on standby for rush jobs.

Can you take Connect exams?

Yes. We handle timed Connect exams, including proctored assessments. Contact us with details about your exam setup and we’ll let you know how we can help.

Do you guarantee the grade?

Yes. Our A/B Guarantee means you get an A or B on qualified work, or you get your money back. We target 90%+ on every assignment.

Is this confidential?

100%. We never share your information. All credentials are encrypted and deleted after work is completed. Our work is completed by humans and is indistinguishable from a strong student’s performance.
