Effective way to refresh and add the Data Science math skills! Thanks a lot! At the time of the study some of the quizzes content were not rendering correctly on mobile devices (both iPad and Android)

•I was attracted by the syllabus (substance) but I found the presentation of the teachers quite disturbing (form); bad calligraphy, some mistakes, poor explanations. Anyway I completed the course and it will be useful as a general introduction to the topics.
By David S
•The probability section left many serious gaps in information compared to the test. I had to take the exam multiple times, and even after restarting half of the class twice. I'm not usually one to have to do this for a class.
By Hitesh D
•Video lectures were not very clear. It looked like these lectures are for revision and not for learning it first time. Baye's Theorem is yet not clear to me... I just mugged up some formulas which i will eventually forget.
By Sandeep M
•The weeks 1-3 although elementary were explained well but the change of professor on the last one really did nothing. There were far better tutors on youtube teaching the same things he did more clearly.
By Jayprakash C
•Concepts not covered well enough, just for the sake of teaching. Pure time waste. Bayesian Theory was not taught up to the mark, I had to refer external resources to understand it well.
By Gaurav A
•the video learning was good, but the quiz questions were at a very different difficulty levels. I would just like to say that this was supposed to be an beginner level course.
By E M
•This course is very short. I've completed it in about 4 hours. Nothing was told about linear algebra, statistics, optimization. It is not enough even to learn Data Science.
By Ashraf S
•This course dos not contain enough examples which needed to train and practice ,PDF is not clear enough and does not contain any problems to practice.
Thanks

•Week 1 and Week 2 material is very well presented. Week 3 was presented very poorly but reading the notes and youtube helped. Week 4 went over my head
By Maria K
•Materials provided are not sufficient to fully understand the concepts. One has to look for additional books and forums on the internet.
By Jomon K S
•The content of the course was simple. But the quiz were above average. The classes were not sufficient to answer the questions.
By Esaú C
•I
t's a good review for the people that know something but will be very hard for students that don't have a background in Maths
By Vaibhav J
•Found the title of the course mis-leading! School level Math skills are taught. Found the title to be similar to "click-baits"
By Xose C
•You'd spend lots of time checking other sources as they do not explain things in detail. They assume many things.
By Peter G
•I enjoyed the first 2 weeks. Weeks 3 and 4 were harder to follow. Too few examples, particularly in week 4.
By Andersson F R A
•A pesar de que el curso es básico, la parte de probabilidad no está muy bien explicada.
By Nayaung L
•The last probability course is really horrible It should be changed or make it easier.
By vivek a
•The course name should be Bais Mathematics instead of Data Science Maths Skills.
By PRASAD K
•Concepts from Probability up to Bayes' Theorem could have been explained better
By Saurabh S
•Week 1 and week 2 are good. rest of the weeks are very fast and not clear.
By Jonathan H
•Very basic course... probably won't teach you a lot of new things
By 小洋xiaoyang
•Wish there will be more example question in the lectures
By A M A
•Probability part is good others are elementary math
By Rodrigue S
•This is really basic basic.
By Derek S
•last week was very hard
