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.

Some of the explanations for the BigQuery SQL exercises are not clear and very incomplete.

First of all I want to emphasize the fact that I am not a hater, troll or anything like that. In terms of Data Analysis, this course is NOT CURRENT -Most of the actions in spreadsheet are out of date since the software update, NOT CORRECT -The files have errors that don't permit them to be loaded in SQL, -The information and steps provided are not correct -There is no comment and description about the actions/shortcuts performed(I guess debutants are supposed to know that then), -We need to spend as much time learning than correcting the files for them to actually work properly NOT ORGANIZED -We jump from writing simple queries in the previous course(s) to writing long and advanced queries with no prior mention of their effects, -We go from proctors explaining SLOWLY and PROGRESSIVELY line by line of each query to writing 10+ lines queries without precise explanation, -We have incredibly long readings documents without any prior video explanation or EXEMPLES of what they are use for, -We jump from readings to hands on practice without any surrounding context, -No glossary for the first 2 modules -The content of modules is ridiculously disparate (Module 4 have 5 chapters!!!!! and all very technical) -The increase in complexity is not well balanced and not well explained -Was there some type of competition with the proctor for her to talk as fast as possible while explaining(and there was very little explanation)It's ridiculously comical. The lack of organization makes this course painfully difficult to follow. This course is completely at the opposite of the previous courses which I genuinely loved all the activities and how they are organized, from the short explanation videos, readings, hands on practice and exercises, they were SMOOTH and STRAIGHTFORWARD. This course, which seems like one of the main important, is very disappointing and should be updated and reorganized. I personally gave up on following the steps-by-steps activities in this course because of spending so much time looking for the correct file, trying to figure out how to correct it etc. PS: why do we have to download a different file for each single activity? Can't we download one file per module and work on the same file instead of having so many file??? Thank god I have a strong background in coding languages and Python because if I was really a debutant, I would have struggled badly.
