It is very good course. however The lecture should explain the type of model more specifically or the PDF file should be more content. Esp for non-native speaker student like me.

Thank you Sir, not only for this course but the splendid work you have done as MD of Wharton online in making the in-house expertise available to millions like me through Courera.

Few tools on Xls has been shown.
More extensive and complex problem are required on use of Monte Carlo method

Slides did not add value. I prefer the slides summarizing the lecture so that I can keep them on file.

Quiz questions are not well written. Also, would have loved to see a Monte Carlo simulation ran.

I think the quizzes are not really related to the content of the course and needed to be changed.

The Quiz requires an exact correct answer which is not reasonable on formulating excel formulas.

The design of the exam is not good. Sometimes need to review the video to find the exact words.

The course itself is interesting and can be done in 3-4 hours in total max. Slides are useless.

Wharton's online MD can not have a course so poorly develop (lectures vs quiz vs material)

Would like to have seen more use of google sheets. Other than that, it was pretty good.

In my opinion, this course is more information oriented rather than knowledge oriented.

A Good course, but there is a need for further expansion, especially in Week 3 and 4.

Should really show you how to build a model piece by piece, but overall very useful.
