Cool course!Guys, who can't answer question #3 in the last test check this: Trial Balance is a representative of each nominal ledger account and will hold either Debit or Credit Balance, not both.

The material doesn't lend itself to a captivating tale but it is presented very well and the fact that it can be done at one's own rate is wonderful for those of us who have limited time.

All lessons, videos, and practice quizzes revolve around QuickBooks, but the tests use Excel, with no training in Excel or formulas to calculate what QuickBooks would calculate for you. This was very difficult without any training in Excel or even bare minimum information about how to use the software.

The videos are nice and engaging, and the quizzes make sense. But the final case study was an absolute nightmare. It was only showing partial dual-accounting method, making things not tie up properly based on the previously taught lesson method. The numbers did not match, no matter what I tried.

There was a lot of information but none of it really prepared me for the test. All of the demos were with QuickBooks Online, but the final test was just in spreadsheets. There was a lot of guessing on my part. I have almost no confidence that I'll be able to do bookkeeping at the end of this.

I don't feel like the final assessment matched the focus of these lessons. It taught the basic concepts, but the practice DID NOT prepare me for the quiz. I have to attempt it several times and find answers in studying for the quiz about how to calculate things from other accounting pages.

Good information, but not giving an answer sheet at the end for the case study document everyone has to fill in is dumb. you can't learn from your mistakes and from what i'm understanding there is a mistake in the document coursera made that screws you from the get go.

The QB illustrations are very poor in image. It's so blurry and difficult to follow. Then the last test is given in excel sheets. Why not QB test. I couldn't follow the tet instructions and failed. I even paid for 2 months that I didn't use out of discouragement.

Overall the concepts are explained well but there are technical errors present especially in visualizations. This is true for all 4 courses in the specialization. This course and the Liabilities and Equity in Accounting have more errors than the other two.

I really enjoyed the course. I do wish there were more opportunities for more practice manually putting in data instead of a point and click option. I learn from actually doing the work not just reading and watching others show me now it's done.

The course needs to be reviewed. Some of the classes skip over information pertinent to the quizzes and some of the quizzes questions are marked incorrect when they are correct! This causes great confusion. Please fix this!

The quizzes and activities during the online lectures are too leading. Then when you're faced with the end-of-course case study, you're a little lost.

Good information but insufficient practice time. I don't feel that I'll be ready to actually do the work even after passing the certification test.

Does not efficiently prepare beginners for the test. Needs to include more practice content, to be completed by the trainee, with not as much help.

Some principles were covered too quickly, Final Project did not provide instructions on what assumptions to use to complete inventory tab.

The details of how most aspects of this particular course could have been explained far better. Assets in Accounting was a bit confusing.

The quiz grading is terrible and needs work. Format has to be too specific. Right answers marked wrong all over the place.

It is a good introductory course, it's easy to understand. Adding more examples would improve the course greatly.

Lots of technical failures with audio, which affected instruction, and some of the content did not seem to fit.
