The aim of the course and general guidelines are fine.
BUT!!!
It s aweful how the explanation s given.
Main idea of all videos is: here s a function, here s another one, also you can use this function.
Now you 'go girl' try to glue all the puzzles together by yourself.
It feels like professor was just rushing to record videos and get back to his work which gives money.
Never-the-less i did learn A LOT from this course which i couldnt do by myself since as i said GENERALLY GUIDELINES are OK.
PS. The WEEK4 last assignment was the main problem since i had to watch about 6-8 hours of statistics to truly feel and understand VAR, STD, TTEST.

This course is quite systematic and helpful, though all assignments are not easy, but did help me to learn.
challenging but I have learnt a lot
very comprehensive and resourceful course
Great Course
just go for it
I decided to take this course after having a great experience with "Python 3 Programming Specialization". I was expecting the same kind of experience from this course but the lectures are pretty fast. The instructor seems to rush through the lectures and keeps on recommending using StackOverflow for any questions so I finally decided to unenroll myself from this course. I recommend you to install Jupyter notebook, buy "Python for data analysis" by Wes McKinney and follow along with all the book exercises. You will have a way better experience learning data analysis than this course.
It's a very interesting course and encouranges one to learn more if you have never worked with pandas.
From module three it is a bit difficult to understand but with a little extra work can be achieved
A bit hard course to start with. If you are looking to enter in the field of data science, better don't go with this course. But if you have some basic knowledge of field then it's awesome. Thumps Up!!! Go For It.
