An excellent course combining psychology and behavioral biases with finance. An eye-opener for students and managers relying exclusively on quantitative techniques to solve finance problems.

One of the best courses on the subject. Period.
Dr. O, does a great job in uncovering the biases that affect investors and funds.
A must if you are serious about investing and managing a portfolio.

Way too many typos and errors to be published as a Coursera course

The course material is excellent to give first the financial background necessary to understand portfolio selection, then introduce the psychological factors that get in the way of making "cold and objective" decisions.
The subject is kept very interesting throughout.
Possibly my favourite course out of the four in the specialization.

The course content is awesome specially Dr. O.
I just dont like the peer reviews. It was long and some does not give fair grading.

I've learnt a lot with this course. Sometimes we don't stop to think about how to think on making decision.

Good course, a bit lacking in the quiz department, and it is always harder to pass the course when more peer-reviews are involved, as it takes quite a while to get your revisions in. Nevertheless, great and interesting content.

A bit too easy in comparison to the previous module. The Efficient Market Hypothesis is perfectly explained as well as many other things. I think more practical manipulations with data would have been useful.

Extremely interesting but could be more detailed showing more specific data and examples with downloadable spreadsheets.
