Poorly coordinated lectures. References to resources that are not provided. No response (at least, for days on end) when questions are posted on the forums

Interesting statistical concepts, and great theory. However, the lectures and the quizzes do not prepare the student well for the final project.

Not a well structured course at all. There is not much clear explanation on the subjects. You pretty much need to figure it out by yourself.

Terrible course, almost no focus on Excel and the lectures were incomprehensible. Please redo this class with Dr. Borg teaching it.

not about data analysis in excel, but mostly how to create models, not related to real life and very hard to grasp
