Overall great course. Still unclear about some things and there is no way to clarify. That would make it better. But besides that this course is well done.

If you are a numbers person - question #3 on final quiz will drive you insane. I haven't found anyone who has gotten the correct answer. It was an informative course.

Not what I wanted or expected in the course at all.

I signed up for this class to be given hands-on lessons on how to use Quickbooks. I am stuck watching videos 90% of the time, and forced to do Excel sheets the rest.

Everything you learn will require supplementary information from other websites because there are no true notes available, just subtitles for the videos.

You will not be given enough practice to do or understand anything by the time you do your final grades, so be prepared to be extremely frustrated if you don't immediately understand what you're doing.

if I didn't need a document to prove my job skills these days, I'd quit and demand my $50 back.

Eh, not very good or informative. Information is dull, not the best and their is not enough true and legitimate practice opportunities given.

Final case study feedback is poor and their answers for some of the questions like final debit/credit balance in the trial balance and total assets in the balance sheet seem wrong. Some feedback there would be appreciated.

I suggest other students to not take their "mistakes" on the final exam too seriously. Just make sure your debits and credits balance out and make sense.

The instructor is FANTASTIC. Just want to put that out there first. But there are a few typos that lead to incorrect quiz answers which are mildly frustrating. More frustrating is Coursera's platform. Constantly having to reload the page to get the "Continue" button to appear is enough to make me not want to finish this course. And yes, I've tried switching browsers, clearing cache, trying a different computer and even using the mobile app. Same issue across all platforms.

I think they need to help us understand if we got a question wrong on the case study what the errors were and what the correct answer should be. It is imperative in learning to understand your mistakes so you can figure out how in future to make sure entries are correct.. Showing us what the correct case study spreadsheet should look like would help us sort where we placed incorrect data so that we place it in the correct area when working for a client.

Although you learn a thing or two. It does not offer much hands on training, mostly videos. It would be best if there was actual data intro assignments relating to the video and subject that is being taught at the time. The data entry happens after the course is completed which is useless because them then, for a beginner like myself, you forget mostly everything that was taught.

Like that this course is more inactive than the last and I've learned a lot. BUT since I don't reside in the US I can't take the exam. Fine, the Intuit Academy is American, surely there is an alternative exam you could provide for the rest of the world's inhabitants.

Disappointed to say the least.

I found this section to be very frustrating. Correct answers or help were not given when a question was repeatedly answered wrong, therefore no feedback or learning. Also the case study at the end doesn't show mistakes or guidance in order to learn what it is we may be missing.

After completing 2 of the 4 courses, the website would not let me enroll in #3. I tried multiple browsers and Coursera support could not find the issue. I feel I wasted my time and money doing the first 2 when I could have been pursuing another certificate.

Information overload with not a lot of guidance on the final case study. You have to have the correct answers on the case study to take the final quiz, but there's no teacher or someone to go over your case study and show you where and why you went wrong.

Breezy overview and too easy guided assignments do not give enough actual practice for each element, to prepare for the exam. Several videos also did not work. Very hard to to the detailed work without an exemplar or more graduated exercises.

It is very difficult being that they show you how to do everything in Quickbooks but when it comes to the Quizzes you have to use excel. It would be much more beneficial that they use the same program for both.

this needs way more thorough teaching in all of these categories for us to really grasp the concepts that we need to learn. very confusing and it moves along way too quickly between topics.

If I hadn't had to waste SO MUCH time listening to the ridiculous narrative they wrote to try to make it more interesting, I would have rated it 4 stars at least.

Most of the course was well done, there are several glitches and lack of information and guidance regarding the final assignment. It needs to be improved.

The information is decent. The production value, the cartoon and the 'script' are terrible and make it difficult to complete.

The inventory section of this course is very poorly explained. At the case study, I found myself not knowing what types of accounts to even use let alone which ones should have a debit or credit. I feel that the topics are not covered to the proper depth and this left me with a serious lack of knowledge and I was unable to complete the case study and had to bluff my way through the quiz just to move to the next section.

theres no help or feedback on the case studies. theres nothing to compare your work to and learn from to get the correct answers. theres no real instructors to speak with to help explain things better and the discussion forums are just as lost and all searching for help and answers too. 0/5 do better

I find the character teacher's antics irritating and it's unfortunate that the quizzes don't show "the math" on how to calculate the correct answers to each question. This would help tremendously.

Case Study needs Help! Poor tutorial and lessons account to nothing when the final test comes up. Cousera shuts down also when you critique the lessons as "going through Updates"
