TOP REVIEWS FROM COMMAND LINE TOOLS FOR GENOMIC DATA SCIENCE
by CWAug 5, 2020
There were some typos and confusion about the need not to follow the example code for Exam 4. However, I thought that the course was good and useful overall.\n\nThank You!

Th lecturer could be a little more engaging and the materials used during classes, if made available would help following it better, by replicating the examples being shown.

Great course. The last exam is a little bit tricky, specially when some commands are large and confusing. But with the help of forums, you can still find the right answers.

Very informative course. Only downside is that the example datasets/scripts are not provided (which I tend to find to be useful for learning informatics).
