This gives a great foundation for Data Analytics. The instructors do skim over everything and I would have liked more detail but most of what I wanted to find out more about I was able to find online.

The first course is top-notch. They actually made this course in such a way that it was so easy and fun for me who has no prior knowledge of data analysis. I would say if they can maintain this level of teaching in all throught the course this can be one of the best course in coursera.

This is my first course from Coursera and it has been a wonderful experience. The videos were sufficient, the quizzes were great and thought provoking. I love the self-paced learning mechanism and the ability to retake failed quizzes. I'd totally recommend it to beginners in this area.

I think this course is a little bit too easy and focuses too much on the conceptual understanding of data analytics. Nevertheless, I think it is a super good start of a series of course on data analytics. Generally speaking, I think the course has a very good quality and worth taking.

This is a foundation course.

For those who are completely new, it is definitely recommended to finish it before going on to the next courses in this specialization.

It is simple and easy for those who have some experience, but worth spending some time on it. You can finish it in a week.
