Quizes could have better questions, it seems they don't always test what was taught in the week.

I learned a lot - I look forward to it being updated to Swift 3 - I'll take it again then.

This course is the very basics of interface building in iOS, requires lots of self-study as the lectures do not dig deep enough and prior knowledge of Swift.
