Good beginner course for learning access controls, it took me about an hour or two longer than the estimated time, which is normal.

Instructor voice is annoying, and he hissing and breathing heavy, like the guy who used to bug helga on hey arnold and the information is super watered down, and definitley not enough to pass the cc.

The test at the end was mediocre, and I would argue wrong. But the "AI grader" doesn't give you points unless you get it word for word. It is NOT an AI grader lol.
