Lab works became more challenging and difficult throughout end of the course. Some tasks I've spent more than week just to find out the mistake. It is quite challenging yet fulfilling at the same time

This course is a good checkpoint to evaluate our understanding of the previous courses. The assignment had some challenges, but after revising the materials, it was successfully completed. Thank you.

For what it teaches is a bit useless, since it is kind of covered in the previous modules of the Data Science certificate. Also, the peer-review rubric is outdated, so the grades are completely wrong. When checking the discussion forum, you can see messages up to 3 years ago pointing out these issues, and you can clearly tell they didn't care to address them.

The IBM Cloud registration and notebook creation got me stuck for DAYS in order to complete the final assignment submission while I could've finished everything in a day or two. Even now, I was not able to access the IBM Cloud to create Jupyter notebook and do not see a solution anywhere at all! What a terrible design to complete the course. It costs money!

Assignment was okay, but the submission... I find it bullying to force learners to create an IBM account to share the link of the document. It is basically forcing somebody to share her/his data. I am neither committing the assignment nor sharing my data.

There was no way to enter one answer, in the lab, question 1 does not ask for first 5 rows, but grades you on not providing them, and the interpretation of the price movement for answer 5 is all wrong (I do stock trading, and their answer is wrong).

The buggiest lab I ever found in this professional certificate course literally the same code which I wrote 3-4 hours earlier is not running after.

You will NOT learn anything in this course. It's basically just reading a jupyter notebook and clicking. It's NOT challenging at all.

Don't bother if you are planning to complete this on your free trial, it's 'free trial' but they don't even give you a certification

The Final Assignment is too easy. You don't have to worry too much to complete the course even if you don't know much about python.

This course is disjointed and the AI evaluation does not work because the options to question 6 don't show up.

very few opportunities to do more coding than simple copy/pasting and little opportunity to learn specifics.

Lots of bugs and deprecations in code example. Annonying for a paid-course.... I expect more from Coursera
