Very good and useful practice of SQL. The JOIN party is pretty hardcore so I definitely couldn't master it but got enough of an understanding where I could learn quickly with some on the job training.

An excellent course for learning analysis techniques using Spreadsheets and SQL. Recommended for all engineering and data science students as well as for those managing businesses and human resource.

There are a couple of areas where the examples don't work, these have been identified in the discussion forums. It would be very helpful to have the fixes added to the curriculum.

Was very confusion in week 2, she was talking normal but speed up when showing SQL steps as if deliberately not wanting you to understand. However she seems okay again in Week 4.

Good, but it was a little bit compacted , and sometimes instructor was fast while it should be slower to be understood. However, it was really useful, and I have learned a lot !

Covers a lot of basics of spread hseets and sql. It lays the foundation upon that you yourself then can build upon to learn more about analytics. Could be a bit more in dept.

I struggled to follow on some SQL queries that were being demonstrated as some statements indicated as errors and therefore could not run them. Otherwise very great content.

It provided a broad view of SQL queries and different tools of spreadsheets and how to use each clause to retrieve the data and how to use tools of spreadsheets on the data.

I like the course design, but some of the functions/formulas/syntax taught are not identical to the newest version of Excel, Bigquery, makes following up a bit difficult.

Great learning content. This course had the most bugs thus far. Everything from QwikLabs errors to many links that did not work. Hope coursera and google fixes them soon.

The course had great content. But the instructor rushed through some of the crucial parts that might demoralize a beginner learner of SQL. Other than that, great course!

An amazing course as usual. But I feel some more stress should have been on some of the advanced features like calculated fields in spreadsheets or sub-queries in SQL.

Great content and a great instructor. It went a little fast and jumped around a bit too much and that is my only complaint. These Grow with Google courses are awesome.

Compared to the first 4 parts of the course, this course really amped up it's level exponentially, specially during subqueries and its Qwiklabs. Otherwise great course

It was hard to follow up related to BigQuery videos, as syntax has not worked quite often and it took a lot of time to search for the correct syntax and error reason.

It was good, but I think the introductory course on questions was even better for problem-solving. this course focused on the technical skills which are also useful.

The course content was good and on-point as always but the instructor wasnt. She was sometimes too slow and then a bit too over-paced which wasnt reallly very helpful

Overall, a solid course but the most difficult parts (temporary tables) were rushed through too fast. Still, highly recommend this course and certificate in general.

Good but some vedeos were unclear on how to priceed to resolve practice events. Not a way to see proper syntax in BigQuery if you could not get it after much effort.

A great source of information for tools and approach to data analysis. May be more exercises about how to apply querys in SQL would make it even a better course.

This course is amazing and the instructor is amazing, but I was expecting to talk more about data calculations and how can we apply other advanced calculations.

The course is great.

The only reason why I don't give the 5 stars is because I think that the difficulty of the hands-on activities could be more challenging

Very technical, kudos to the instructor. She was a little fast though, had to re-watch videos more than twice some times. Good job overall. Thank you.

This is a great course. However, as a beginner of SQL it needs a whole lot of time. I look forward to going back and practising writing down queries.

Need to explain why you are using certain SQL functions, not what each function does, but why you decided to look a certain way or take that path.

This course was great I believe it needed more information on SQL, more complex to solidify the course but overall it was great. Thanks Coursera
