I enjoyed the first course of the program but this course is very hard to follow along. No offense to the british guy, but man, I zone out so bad when he's doing video instruction. They are not clear as to why you should do a certain thing in code, they just say "do this ..." and expect you to retain that for their projects. It really should be, "do this because" and immediately apply the tools. Maybe its just me, but too much reading and video, not enough hands on instruction. If I wanted to read, I would've ordered a book.

i like this course but i am having challenges and they are not responding to me, i don't have money for upgrading the course and i thought that the financial aid covers that. will it affect my certificate if i don't do the upgraded quizzes. is there no other options?

Ridiculously long and nearly all the labs do not cover what is being taught. This course should truly be split into two different courses and a review MUST be made for correct the lab responses and align with information being taught.

poorly explanations, many bugs and errors in assignments, not beginner friendly at all

There are numerous errors in both the lectures and in some of the quizzes

the examples were really hollow and it was very compact in some videos

Too simple. Needed harder assignments

wordy, terrible course!

This is definitely one of the worst "beginner programmer" courses I've taken. There's no way this course actually helps people become programmers, nor do I believe it's actually taught by Meta engineers. There are so many problems with the content and quizzes. On top of all of that, you only actually practice programming in Python on, like, 4 assessments that take <10 mins to figure out. (Most of the problems I had with it were around understanding what the course was tasking me with more than understanding how to write the code.) I have to assume most of the positive reviews are spam, because this is absolutely not a course worth taking. You can find much higher quality stuff on Youtube. At least those creators care about you learning, and ensure their content makes sense and doesn't have blatant errors.

These videos cover the basics but they don't say what instances you would use the code in. The assignments asks for things that was not gone over in any of the videos (I have gone over the lectures three times). You learn to list all coffees with the letter C out of a list of coffees but in the assignment you are supposed to return a list with employee names and their jobs and there is example code I have never before seen. It is infuriating and all I've learned is that I have wasted a lot of time.

Thanks for putting together the course. Breadth of content was good and helpful. However, the content is not well structured, with overlaps, quizzes before content, insufficient explanation in some areas, non-ideal examples and technical inaccuracies. This should be reviewed, to be more accessible for newcomers to programming

The worst class I have ever taken. No support whatsoever. Nobody monitors questions on the discussion group and that is the only place you can get any help. I see a lot of students having problems and no replies.

Chaotic and full of problems

poor sound quality
