The quizz and exercices have a lot of weird problems. Way of asking the question, approximation of the result, contradictory initial datas... It needs to be reviewed
Very clear overall at a pace I (non-financial savvy) can accept. But hope to solution to all questions in the future.
The course is simple and perfectly self contained. It is excellent as a primer on the topic or to refresh old knowledge. The examples are clear and so is the language. Of course it does not address in full the complexity and the ramifications of this approach.
This course is more advanced compared to the previous one - Valuation for Startups Using Discounted Cash Flow. There are a lot more theoretical concepts and examples that are covered in this course and I really enjoyed the lectures and the quizzes. The instructor is quite clear and the 1 or 2 instances where something was not clear, or when a concept needed clarification, the teaching staff were quite prompt with responding. I am quite satisfied with this course and would recommend it to someone looking to earn the Specialization in " Valuation and Financial Analysis For Startups". Two thumbs up!
