Hard. You need to take notes and go at your own pace or you will struggle with the quizzes and understanding the fundamentals.

Good courses with nice explanation. The knowledge is quite in detail, so it might be better to read few books for supplement.

If you don't have a lot of previous knowledge in the area, this can be a very challenging course to navigate. Take notes. ;)
