Really interesting course. The interactive coding sessions with swirl are especially useful. Would be great, if you provided sample solutions for the programming assignments, in particular for week 4.

I found the jump in difficulty for the first assignment too great. This seems to be a view reflected elsewhere.

The instructions were not satisfactory, and there is a large gap between the assignment and the skills taught.

Most of the portion is just theory with very less hands-on sessions. So boring to listen to all the concepts.

This course was so convoluted and not practical that it made me lose complete interest in the specialization.

Fix the assignments so they match the course content. This is unfair to the people who pay for this service.

This course presumes you are a programmer to begin with. I tried to take the class to learn how to program.

The course does not cover for beginner students. Assignments and tests are level apart from learning.

Assignments do not match up well with the lessons and the lessons are BAD. They are not educational.

You can't do assignments using the lecture materials. Need A LOT of time to finish this course.

Gap between the theory and the practical assignment is huge. For a beginner is not an option!

This is not a beginner course. Much too high level for someone with no coding experience.

This course is not for beginner. If you look for beginner course for R, look else where.
