The course skims over information without clear explanations whether on the videos or the hands-on labs.The code is never explained clearly,much work is needed to be done to make this course even worthy of being given the designation as a course,much like the some of the other courses in this specialization (e.g. Data Analysis with Python).I'm utterly disappointed and frustrated.

There were so many technical issues when you were completing the assignments. Even though you've followed the instructions step-by-step, you still have to spend a lot more time to solve those issues on your own by searching solutions online. Wasted plenty of time on dealing with the requied IDE based on Theia. The worst experience among other courses in this certificate series.

While I was working of this course I was under the assumption that like most courses I have taken, that I could work at my own pase. And yet when I went to work on the assingments for this course I could not complete them becuase they are time locked. seems unscassy and actically is hampering my complition of this course in a timely manner.

One of the worst courses available in this professional certificate. That one and the webscraping one feel like they were created in a hurry and no one ever bothered to go back and check if they work/make sense.

I would love to say i learned something in this course other than learning to be patient with unclear instructions.

This is single-handedly the WORST of the courses I have completed on Coursera. The final assignment is FULL of bugs and the staff are completely unhelpful in responding to MULTIPLE complaints about the bugs. You will not be able to complete this course if you sign up to it because of this. A total waste of time and money.

Nice contenent and lectures, however to do the final assignment and weekly lab the biggest problem was to make the environment work. I solved by using google colab installing packages. I think that the lab have to perfectly work on Watson, otherwise you do not understand if you are wrong or the environment is

One of the worst courses in the Data Analyst Certification. The peer graded final took me over one week to complete, after scouring every forum and discussion filled with peope all having the same issues. This program final portion needs to be re-evaluated. It was not helpful to understanding the material.

This course was very poorly thought out with an abhorrent final assignment. The forum was filled with classmates trying to figure out how to get things to work, and help from the instructors was copy/paste and not very useful. Many people will drop the certificate here I'm sure. Would not recommend.

This is the only course in the series I had trouble with the labs in - to the point that it significantly impacted my ability to even learn through troubleshooting my mistakes. I also don't understand how there is an optional assignment that is required to pass the course. That's not optional.

WORST EXPERIENCE IN EACH COURSE NO WATSON ACCOUNT CREATION , IN FORUMS IF ONE RAISES PROBLEM. LIKE A ROBOT THEY KEEP ON GIVING SENSELESS ADVICE TO CREATE NEW ACCOUNT ON IBM WEN THEY THEMSELVES KNOW FEATURE CODE CANNOT BE USED ON 2ND ACCOUNT. A BIG MISTAKE I CHOSE THIS COURSE

Labs mostly didn't work. And complex topics were 'explained' in videos that were 3-4 mins long. Basically have to spend a lot of time researching tutorials and videos online. This is the 8th of the 9 course series I've completed, and it was the worst of the lot.

This is the worst course out of the last 9 courses that I took of IBM. They succeeded making simple concepts very confusing and simple tasks cumbersome. Waste of time and money, I would rather just go read the official tutorials of matplotlib, plotly, and dash.

There needs to be a better way to submit coursework - the mess of having to screenshot and try to fit in all graphs was more laborious than the actual work of the course. A sentiment shared by MANY other people taking the course based on the discussion boards.

This is by far the worst course in the whole specialization. The final assignment has many syntax errors, still stuck with it after two days, and the video materials don't cover enough to understand the problematic and solution of the final assignment.

This is the worst course of IBM Data Scientist professional certificatge. Especially if you compare it to other IBM courses. There was a lot of typos, quizz questions were not clearly worded. I had a really bad experience going through that course.

What a bad ending to a beautiful story. The assignment was just a party pooper. I enjoyed every topic of the course, but for me to spend hours solving syntax took away all the excitement. Very disappointed with how the assignment was structured.

This course is a mess! The final project is broken and nearly impossible to complete if you are in any way beginner level. All the suggestions from staff so far haven't helped either, which is beyond frustrating. Waste of time and money!

The course material is outdated. I could have watched a 30 min Youtube video and learned more. The final assignment and the peer reviews are a waste of time. Really, you make me fix html tags and then look at screenshots?

Just a very disjointed course. Final project at the end is awful. Difficult to grade your peers. Difficult to understand what is being asked. Seems like the course was put together if a couple hours.

This course quizzes you on things no one cares about such as 'Artist Layer' which has no relevance in calling a function. Folium library was the only cool thing about this module. Glad it's done!

This was a monsterous let-down as a class. I already know how to GOOLE things. I am paying $50.00 USD/ month to be TAUGHT some things. Not spoken AT, and then tested on things that aren't taught.

The labs and quizzes are locked, it says it will open when it is scheduled, but all the students are waiting eagerly for it to open. The lecturers don't respond to the forum comments...

great course but they lock your quizes and assignments and tell you

" This item will be unlocked when the schedule opens"

absolutely terrible technical management by coursera

Lab errors, too much grading, ID verification that doesn't. If you're trying to convince me not to pay for IBM or Coursera courses you have certainly succeeded.

The last two weeks and final assignments are the worst among all the courses in the specialization. Final submission is almost stupid and of high school level
