The course was interesting and had a few good takeaways, but there was a whole section that quizzed you about the Mahabharata and its various characters, which is tough for those unfamiliar with the story and it's ridiculous to lose points over a story versus leadership skills in real life. Also, the audio was inconsistent throughout the entire course since no one bothered to check it or fix the microphone issue, so you had to keep turning the volume up to even hear the presenter. Finally, the final paper is a peer-reviewed assignment where most peers do not follow the written instructions regarding length and content and mark you down if you do follow the instructions. Overall, give this a pass - it's not worth the straining to hear, the confusing week spent on an epic story, and the poor grades from rude peers.
