TOP REVIEWS FROM MATH FOR MBA AND GMAT PREP
I am very happy to have completed the course. Many thanks to Professor T. Smith, Emory University and Coursera!
The video content & practice exercises were great! A few assessment questions were missing some required information, but still giving it a 5 star for quality content. Thank you!
Dr. Smith explained everything so well. His teaching style made even complex concepts understandable very quickly with his ability to tie in real-world examples.
Thanks Professor Smith a lot for your interesting course. I have learned a lot and will utilize this for my next year MBA study.
