VERY GOOD

Disadvantages : Lacks Rigour, Lacks Support from instructors , Expensive , Peer review ( this is somewhat bad as most barely give any comments, though towards the end, reviews tend to be pretty good). *** DISCLAIMER *** I am not statistically significant as i only receive 3 reviews per week.

Advantages :Quick to earn cert, prewritten code available for easy use. Assignments on your own data. This is probably useful for people wanting to learn techniques for data analysis, who need not go too deep into the technique.

I would recommend this to people learning techniques for data analysis in various non-mathematical and non-statistical fields, though the content lacks rigour, and you need outside sources to help understand techniques.

This course IS NOT WORTH PAYING USD79, there are definitely other courses much more worth the money. You can audit it for free, if you do not want a cert.

The material is good but the functions should have been explained in more detail. There is kind of repetition of same thing. It should have given some more examples and changes in code to explain the different types of ways to apply same algorithm.

It was okay for an introduction to the methods, but I would have liked to learn about them in more details, i.e. the course was too short.

This level of detail was good for easier statistical concepts but there are much better courses on Coursera for Machine Learning

It´s a good course but it does not goes deep enough in the examples and techniques.

It's not an intro class. But you can practice a lot if you know something.

Not deep enough on diagnostic and interpretation

Course could be better

Personally felt this course have a lot more potential. The explanations in the lectures felt very robotic especially when describing the scripts. At times the lectures slides felt like displaying the subtitles and reading off them. A lot more diagrams could have been illustrated for explanations. I have to watch other videos in youtube to get a better grasp of the concepts.

Good thing is that this is an introductory course, and the codes are given.

It goes over and over about the adolescent examples, which makes it annoying. The quality and production of the video is bad. Why to use moving scenes in the background (like the horses or the highway)? That's distractive and takes the focus of the content, better to use a blackboard.

Unfirtunately superficial and outdated view on the subject.

One of the worst online courses I have taken - absolute embarrassment to learning. Definitely seems like its been abandoned by people running it - good luck getting anyone to reply to you. It took 3 weeks to get my assignments marked and none of the assignments I reviewed were of any standard (mostly blank or clearly plagiarised). This is because the assignment are in the format of an online blog that you have to link - so it's super easy to just spam submissions.

I got 100% but don't feel like I have learned what I intended to learn and the quality of assignments needs to be massively improved

Not good at all.We see different processes without anyone making clear the reason why we should apply this processes ,under which conditions and what is the question that we have to answer when we apply these processes.The only good is that we get into some new terms and see new things.I could say that for me,it wouldn't make such a difference if it wasn't in this specialization.

Absolutely unbalanced course. Course has 4 different topics, but it does not explain well non of them. In reality whole course should be dedicated for at least one of provided topics.

Actually i want rate 0, as the instruction for the installation of new tools are quite vague and misleading

I could not complete the course, since it required SAS. This is not spelled out at the start.

Most horrible course. Material are not enough and plus projects are hardly curated
