The course was incredibly informative. I am glad that I got the opportunity to study in a course on statistics from Stanford University itself. I thank the creators and participants of the course!

The lectures were clear and thorough, with a good amount of examples. The quizzes were excellent, and I learned a lot from the feedback. One of the best Coursera courses I have ever taken!

Not much effort was put into designing this course. It's simply the instructor talking over PowerPoint slides and scribbling on them. A good textbook would provide a better introduction in a more engaging way.

I am happy to complete the courses, I learned a lot of empirical rules and terms, and helps me in my present time, but if certificates are given without cost, it will be beneficial for me.

I joined this course as a part of my data science journey. You told me this is a free certificate course but after completing the course You are asking to pay money for the certificate. How fair is it? I'm not getting.

I'm from developing countries particularly from Yemen where the war have destroyed everything. I hope that you will give me the certificate for this course for granted.

This course is horrible. Very little explanation provided. I guess for the price it's... better than nothing, but you get what you pay for... which is nothing.
