About the Course
Top reviews
This course has made me understand cost accounting, has provided a fresh perspective on how to solve some of the challenges i had with management accounting and as a bonus, made me love maths again :)
The course is worth the time , the faculty teaches you about some complicated advance formulae with so much clarity and ease that even beginners can be pro in excel related to business and finance.

•Weak, definitely not what I would call a "course". Should have been at least twice as long to give more depth. Also, too many type-in answers for quizzes.
By Jaydeep C
•The course was good in the sense that it gave at least some idea about spreadsheet model however conceptually very less scope was there for learning.
By Andrea P V
•Quizzes are very disputable. Not clear in some passages and in some cases you must remember the exact expresssion of the teacher or you fail. Crazy!
By Ansh P S
•Fine Knowledge but very poorly constructed course. Test has random questions with ambiguous answers. Monete Carlo isn't explained well enough.

•Test submission modality is really bad, many syntax conflicts, no guidances and neither explication for bad responses are available.
