Excellent course
Amazing! Although videos are short, assignment is both instructive and challenging.
Instructor hardly teaches anything and gives you the toughest assignments to do.
I think Hypothesis testing was not given a lot of time and was barely skimmed through. Another problem was the auto grader itself which was quite painful to work with. I think Coursera should have the latest version of packages on their server as without that there were always inconsistencies with the way my offline python responded vs how the online server responded.
Nice course to begin career as Data Scientist. You learn how to deal with Python objects and clean data for further analysis.
Great Course. The assignments are challenging and this gives you an idea of how difficult it is to clean and perform calculations on real life data.
The course has sufficient rigor to prepare you for what is coming in the rest of the program. My opinion is based on my experience with the many Johns Hopkins Data Science courses I completed on Coursera.
The auto grading system can be improved. The feedback on failed submissions is sparse and you have to go to the discussion boards to figure out the solution.
Warning to students who tend to get trapped into figuring out a solution on their own:
PLEASE go to the discussion often when doing the assignments and you will save a lot of time!
It was a great experience attending this course.
expected much more but its good
