Very challenging, but good course. I've been programming in R for over a year, but there were still some things for me to pick up in this class. Assignments were a challenge, but satisfying to tackle.

This was very engaging, however, the level of expectation and effort needed is much greater than course 1 - ToolBox.
This is perhaps the best course on R Programming designed for a small duration.

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

Too much of a jump from the previous course. Exercises much too complex relative to the lessons.

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

There is a huge disconnect between the lectures and what is asked in the homework assignments.

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.

This course assumes that the student has prior coding experience.
