Great learning with examples from real life, great approach to understand the concept without need to deep dive into the mathematical complexities. A great base to get into Data/Business Analytics.

I found this course the most challenging of the courses in this certificate program, but also the most interesting b/c it the info. can be applied to real world scenarios. Though I do feel I know "enough to be dangerous". There is a lot of depth to linear regression techniques, which this course doesn't cover. But it did open my eyes to the power and possibilities of using linear regression techniques on real world problems.

Great class. The material was challenging. I was able to work through the various models and equation. I wish still I had a better understanding of interpreting some of the modeling techniques, such as using Mean centered variables and interaction variables. But all and all, I really enjoyed the class and as usual the instructor did a great job.

Phenomenal course. A little more in-depth explanations and more examples for the concepts introduced in the last two weeks would have been nice though. In week 3 and 4, I found it challenging to go so quickly over so many new concepts all of a sudden. But still, I would really recommend taking this course, I found it useful.

An in depth explanation of how to use Excel for Linear Regression and what the Output values in Excel's Regression mean. Note that the transcripts/subtitles contain many errors, which can be problematical for the hard of hearing or non English speakers, which is why I gave the course only 4 points.

I thought it was very well done but I felt like the material was kind of rushed and some subjects were brushed over. I would like a little more in depth coverage of this subject.

content, insightfulness, logics are very comprehensive and carefully designed, however, certain exam questions are questionally and arguably disgned.

Overall a good course that cultivates skills in precise use of regression, data handling and understanding of applied business modelling problems.

I'd like to have more examples regarding Log-Log and the Semi-Log Regression Models and also Interaction Variables interpretations. Thanks a lot!

That would be better if the correct answer if being shown after passing the exam, because I can't able to learn from my mistakes
Great course !!!

The exercises included help a lot in practically understanding the matter. I did not find that in other courses and it was a miss.

Perfect for beginners, so I agree it can be not like a challenge.
